Hi JK,

I haven't reviewed the support levels below for a while, but just shooting from the hip here mid-$36 seems good. As I recall, I came up with $36.50 partly on the basis of moving average support, which has certainly changed now. So those support levels will require a bit of revisiting and fine tuning.

Personally, I think of support as a kind of region more than a discrete and precise level. There are exceptions..... but most often I do not think support and resistance can be specified to the penny or even to the nickel.

Hi JK,

The support levels I see from top to bottom are:

$37.22: lower BB rail
$37.14: 200 sma
$37.00: chart support; psychological support
$36.86: 100 sma
$36.72: 50 sma
$36.60: chart support (not strong)
$36.00: chart support
$36.00 (or a bit lower): midline of medium-term regression channel
$35.60: support from trendline dating back to Aug. 2004
$35.00 (approximately): lower rail of the long-term regression channel

As you can see, there is solid support from two sources at $36.00. We'll have to see if yesterday's significant volume surge is repeated, but if not, then that makes $36.00 as the likely lower support that will hold.
