On the weekly chart, there are three branches of growth with increasing speed. At the end of the third such branch, as a rule, there is either a deep correction or a market reversal. The formed divergence of the price with the Marlin oscillator indicates a high probability of the end of the third branch in the concept of three increasing speeds with a reversal.

The daily chart also shows a divergence. Opening a short position from the current levels significantly reduces the risk/profit ratio. The first target of the new downward movement is the March 16 low at 29.28. It is followed by the March 5 low at 27.40. The third target is the level of peaks from February 22 and January 14 at 25.45.
