Consider Short Positions:
Given all these factors, we may ponder a breakdown of the support level breakdown, which will consent us to open short positions. The sink must be keen and supported by the large volume, which will be a more precise signal for entering the market. A stop loss should be located above the breakdown volume bar.
Profit Potential:
More than 300 points.
