Analyst Summary
The 20-day moving average at 68,240 now acts as overhead resistance — bears have reclaimed near-term control. RSI at 43 lingers below the midline — momentum remains in the bears' hands, though not yet at capitulation levels. On the MACD, the fast line has crossed below the signal line with a negative histogram — confirming the bearish momentum shift. Long Put leads the strategy table at 86% — directional bias and vol regime both align.

Analyst Summary
The break below the 20-day SMA at 7,545 opens the door to further downside probing. The 43 RSI keeps the momentum profile in bear territory. Rallies are selling opportunities until the 50-line is recaptured. MACD histogram negative and deepening — the momentum profile reinforces the short-side thesis. The structured approach identifies Long Put at 80% as the highest-probability play. Risk/reward and regime fit both favour this setup.
