OVERSOLDNEUTRALOVERBOUGHT
Analyst Summary
The 20-day average at 7,497 has failed as support, transitioning into resistance. Price must reclaim it to neutralize the bearish signal. Momentum holds constructive at 51 β firmly in bullish territory with room to run before the tape gets stretched. MACD histogram negative and deepening β the momentum profile reinforces the short-side thesis. Participation is heavy at 1.5x average volume β this is not a low-liquidity drift, but a committed directional push.
