April platinum closed at $1770.30 today, the highest close since January 3.  With the dollar firm and bonds weak I remain a little skeptical of this latest platinum rally.  Support is found at $1750 with resistance at the January 3 high of $1792.  The bulls again seem poised to make a lunge for the November high at $1813.  It will take some time though. A confirmed dollar breakout in the coming sessions could stave it off. 

So far so good for the bulls but I expect more choppy consolidation ahead.
