Analyst Summary
The break below the 20-day SMA at 25,497 opens the door to further downside probing. Momentum at 48 reflects a tape under pressure. Bulls need to push the oscillator back above 50 to shift the narrative. MACD validates the bearish lean: histogram below zero and expanding in negative territory. The impulse leg is to the downside. Strategy selection converges on Calendar Spread (82%) — the quantitative factors align across direction, momentum, and implied volatility.
