Analyst Summary
Price holds above the 20-day moving average at 74,047, preserving the near-term bullish structure. The oscillator at 63 reflects sustained buying interest — bulls control the momentum channel. The moving-average convergence divergence oscillator supports the bull case — histogram expanding above the zero line. The structured approach identifies Long Call at 72% as the highest-probability play. Risk/reward and regime fit both favour this setup.
