Drilling to the 5-minute chart below, the move off the low was able to get above the 100 bar MA (blue line) initially (and found support buyers near the level on the dip). The price is now trading above the 200 bar MA (green line) at 111.086. The 100 bar MA is at 111.032. A move back below the 200 and 100 bar MA is now risk for the dip buying longs.
