Nobody knows what is going to happen, but this confluence of trend lines is at least interesting.

There is a short term uptrend since the August low that converged pretty perfectly with a longer term trend line that seems to have had some weight as resistance since summer of 2023. It has been broken at times, but price has always come back in and has spent a lot of time respecting it.

This month we broke above it again and then on Friday we opened below both lines, only to rally back up and close above them.

There is also a resistance line that along with the short term support line can be seen as a rising wedge that was broken on December 4th. This latest drop took us down through the front of that wedge but on Friday we closed back above it.

Now the market of course does not have to follow any of these lines, but I thought the confluence was interesting. Could this all just be a retest of the wedge we just broke out of to the upside? Could the longer term resistance line finally be flipping to support? In that case, we could be at the beginning of a much bigger upside move.

To be clear, I do also see credible downside possibilities, but there is some confluence and some strength worth noting here.
