This fact was immediately reflected by MACD that indicated a correction. Thus, the current signal for Sell-deals is considered as confirmed and strong, as Chinkou Span is located above the price chat and the price remains higher than the Ichimoku Cloud. Therefore, the target for ascending movement is seen at the first resistance level 83.19. In case it has been overcome, the second resistance level 83.94 will be considered as the next target. The ascending movement remains relevant as long as the price is higher than the Kijun-Sen (81.60). In case the price is fixed below this line the further elaboration of the signal for Buy-deals will be questioned indicating a possible reversal of the price to downwards.
