Analyst Summary
With price beneath the 20-day moving average (68,240), the burden of proof shifts to the bulls. Rallies into the SMA are selling opportunities until reclaimed. 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. Strategy selection converges on Long Put (86%) — the quantitative factors align across direction, momentum, and implied volatility.
