We finally broke the resistance line at 3.05$. As you can see, most of the time, when we break a support or resistance line, we have an increase of volume to confirm the move.

Here we broke the resistance line. Immediatly after, we had a drop who used the same line as support line and it helped the UP to continue. We have a little resistance at 3.12$ but at the time of this article, it has been broken already. So the next major resistance line to try to break will be around 3.60$ (line in red). Let's see how many time we will take to reach that level.
