There was a break above the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $4674 high to $2967 low. It has opened the doors for more gains above the $4200 level.

At the moment, the price is attempting a close above the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $4674 high to $2967 low. Once there is a close above the $4300 level, the price could easily surpass $4000 and trade towards the last swing high or $4670.
