The support is provided by the 38.2% retracement on the uptrend from $2,063 to $2,148. The bounce triggered by this support could have ended below a resistance at $2,465.

The fall from the July 8 high of $2,589 has been also controlled by another set of retracements on the uptrend to this high from $2,148.

These two retracement analyses suggest a target range of $2,316-$2,326. A break above $2,465 may lead to a gain limited to $2,485.
