Earlier, prices rebounded sharply from a low of <strong>$62.855<\/strong>, climbing to an intraday high of <strong>$65.515<\/strong> before retreating on profit-taking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The surge toward <strong>$65.515<\/strong> was accompanied by a large volume spike and steep upward crossover in short-term moving averages, signalling aggressive buyer activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2026\/03\/image-4-1024x474.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40976\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the rejection at the top and subsequent fade suggest a temporary exhaustion of upward momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently, price action has consolidated back toward the short-term moving averages (MA5: 64.338 and MA10: 64.387), with the market showing signs of hesitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price remains sandwiched between dynamic support and resistance, hovering near the <strong>$64.29<\/strong> zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If bulls defend the <strong>$64.20\u201364.30<\/strong> area, another test of <strong>$65+<\/strong> could be in play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A breakdown below <strong>$64.00<\/strong> would expose the market to deeper pullbacks toward <strong>$63.40<\/strong> and possibly <strong>$62.60<\/strong>, where prior support was last seen.
