<p>The previous candle closed as a bearish candle and faced rejection from $1.50. The current candle is slowly turning bullish and needs to break the high of a previous candle in order to retest the high of $1.60.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>On the other hand, if the current candle breaks the low of the previous candle, it might melt down toward the next support level of $1.42 and potentially toward $1.35.&nbsp;</p>
