Analyst Summary
Loss of the 20-day SMA (24,445) flips the near-term structure bearish — the moving average now acts as a ceiling rather than a floor. The 18 RSI print suggests aggressive selling has run its course — buyers may attempt to step in near support. MACD histogram negative and deepening — the momentum profile reinforces the short-side thesis. The scoring engine flags Long Put with a 86% conviction score — the strongest signal in today's scan.
