Any pullback below $2700 will see a retracement to $2695-$2685-$2675 is seen as a possibility where buyers may resurface as immediate trend remains extremely bullish.

Those who trade on the long side, should monitor price action on 5 Day EMA on closing basis which is considered as bearer of the prevailing trend as well as the first line of defense.
