Technical analysis:
- Solid support emerges at $2.09 after institutional buying during intraday crash; resistance holds in the $2.15 to $2.16 area on heavy volume
- 24-hour activity is 9.8% above the weekly baseline, indicating normal participation; 80% of major volume peaks at resistance validate current range structure
- Range-bound trade between $2.09 and $2.16, losing momentum; series of lower highs pointing to near-term pressure within established boundaries
- A break above the $2.16 resistance opens the way to the $2.20-$2.25 zone; a failure below the $2.09 support, targeting the psychological $2.00 level, the current setup favors a range-bound strategy.
