The swing high at 325 falls within the prior resistance zone of the 340.

Ranges that has formed at the end of a previous trend (uptrend) brings a balance in supply and demand of the market. In such ranges, neither buying nor selling activity will be large enough to create significant movement towards upside or downside. Hence in such type of ranges, Price action moves sideways for an extended time period. Big Institutional Players and Smart Money traders commonly referred as Composite Man by Wyckoff, take significantly large positions in these types of Ranges. One can witness low volumes as price entered the distribution phase but the volume has increased with significant bearish bars in the last leg of the swing.
