Technical picture
The 14-day RSI is 71, above 70, which is overbought: buyers have been very aggressive and a pause or pullback is common from here.
MACD is above its signal line, a sign that short-term momentum is turning up.
The price is above its 50-day moving average but still below the 200-day: a short-term recovery inside a longer-term downtrend.
Volume is only 0.8x its 20-day average; light trading makes the latest move less convincing.

The most recent swing high is $591.82 and the swing low is $476.85; traders often treat these as resistance and support.
