Price has breached a key support at the 20-day EMA which intersects at 135.56. It represents an important pivot level and the break strengthens a bearish threat. 134.80, the Mar 22 low, has been tested. A breach of this support would open 134.15, a Fibonacci retracement. Initial resistance is at 136.77, the Mar 30 high.
