After a quick rebound to $112.93 on February 17, it has wallowed in a trading range between $100.66 and $108.78, with a majority of the price action taking place between $103.00 and $106.00.In today's session after a higher open (Tuesday's close of $104.20 vs. Wednesday's open of $104.66), it sustained a brief pullback to $104.33 and began to grind higher. So far, it has surpassed Tuesday's high, reached $105.44 and is treading water near the highs for the session.
