WEEKLY CHART - CONTINUATION:

2009 has been dominated by a recovery in prices.

The latest upleg, which broke free of consolidation below 14.00 (now a support area) has reached a zone of key resistance.

This includes the old 15.830 Aug-08 low and 16.350 38.2% retracement - a struggle to get through here would not surprise, with a s/term pullback becoming more likely.

A later return to strength is expected.

DAILY CHART - MAR-10:

The structure of the last upleg from 13.500 Sep low looks mature, increasing pullback risk - this is emphasised by the current negative RSI divergence.

First area of support comes from the dual Fibo retracements, but the stronger area is slightly lower, prior 14.690/14.625/ 14.500 consolidation highs combining with the 61.8% and 38.2% pullback levels to offer potentially strong support.

Buyers on dips would favour this area.

Note that this key support area falls around 14.00 on the continuation chart.
