TECHNICAL ANALYSIS:

• 14-DAY RELATIVE STRENGTH INDEX (RSI) INDICATES PLATINUM PRICE IS NEARLY OVERSOLD: According to the daily chart below, the 14-Day RSI is trading just above the oversold threshold of 30, suggesting the platinum price itself is getting oversold. Therefore, a price recovery could be next expected, although prices could go into the other direction as well.
