The 20-day moving average at 24,733 now acts as overhead resistance — bears have reclaimed near-term control. Momentum at 55 is in the sweet spot: bullish enough to confirm direction, not so extended as to warrant caution. The moving-average convergence divergence reading confirms downside pressure with a negative and deepening histogram. Volume is running cold at 0.0x the norm. Without broader participation, the current directional bias is vulnerable.

Histogram expansion below zero signals sustained selling pressure. Volume registers below average — the move lacks broad participation and is susceptible to reversal.
