In an alternative scenario, a confirmed breakout of the support level 4365.0 may trigger a deeper correction to the local support level 4245.0. Its breakdown, in turn, will be a signal for a further decline to support levels 4160.0 (ЕМА144 on the daily chart), 4045.0 (ЕМА200 on the daily chart). The first signal for the implementation of this scenario may be a breakdown of the support level 4429.0.

Nevertheless, in the current situation, long positions are still preferred.

Support levels: 4429.0, 4391.0, 43656.0, 4245.0, 4160.0, 4045.0
