🔍 Key Technical Levels to Watch
Critical Resistance Level: $3340

Critical Support Level: $3340 (same level — acting as a pivot)

This price acts as a decision-making level. A clear H1 (1-hour) candle close above or below this zone will provide a potential trading direction.

📈 Bullish Scenario (Buy Setup)
Condition:
If an H1 candle closes firmly above $3340, it may signal bullish momentum gaining strength.

Trade Plan:

Entry: After a confirmed H1 close above $3340

Targets:

🎯 Target 1: $3360 – minor resistance

🎯 Target 2: $3380 – intermediate resistance

🎯 Final Target: $3400 – major resistance zone

Stop-loss: Can be placed just below $3340 or last candle low, depending on risk tolerance

Rationale:
A breakout above $3340 would indicate buyer dominance and potential for price to test higher resistance zones.

📉 Bearish Scenario (Sell Setup)
Condition:
If an H1 candle fails to hold above $3340 and closes below it, this may indicate bearish pressure.

Trade Plan:

Entry: After a confirmed H1 close below $3340

Targets:

🎯 Target 1: $3280 – previous support zone

🎯 Target 2: $3250 – deeper retracement level

🎯 Final Target: $3200 – key support zone from higher timeframes

Stop-loss: Just above $3340 or recent swing high

Rationale:
Rejection from $3340 may lead to profit-taking or fresh selling, pushing the price back toward support levels.
