On the daily chart, the first wave of counter attack by bulls on a battlefield of $1,706 proved failed, after the spinning top on Wednesday was defeated by a big black candlestick on Thursday.
The second wave of assault could most likely be launched around a support zone of $1,680-$1,684, as suggested by a falling channel.
