When we look at the technical setup of Quant, we can see that it’s trying to find support in the $68 to $70 region. This area has been support going back to early November. If this zone holds, bulls might look for a rebound higher. However, if it fails, bearish momentum could accelerate, potentially putting the mid- to high-$50s in play.
