Analyst Summary
With price beneath the 20-day moving average (8,676), the burden of proof shifts to the bulls. Rallies into the SMA are selling opportunities until reclaimed. With RSI at 48, the path of least resistance remains to the downside until buyers can reclaim the neutral zone. The moving-average convergence divergence reading confirms downside pressure with a negative and deepening histogram. Our 31-strategy scoring model ranks Long Put as the highest-conviction play at 65%.
