Research Desk Order Flow & Session Note
On the Hang Seng (HSI) tape (24,796.98, +3.67%), structural momentum favors the bid side after a clean MSS at 24,524.63, keeping the session anchored around the 23,363.79 50% Equilibrium level. Primary Bullish Order Block (+OB) demand is stacked between 22,928.27–23,088.14, whereas overhead supply sits near 25,252.07–25,394.60. An unmitigated Bullish Fair Value Gap (23,549.31–24,281.77) provides an additional magnet for dip-buying rebalancing. Session Follow-Up: Intraday price action respected the bullish structure; holding above 24,281.67 keeps the expansion path open toward 25,147.39 into the next session.

Research Desk Order Flow & Session Note
Order-flow structure on Straits Times (STI) (5,301.83, +0.63%) leans offered after a BOS at 5,362.72, with rallies facing institutional supply relative to the 4,600.44 equilibrium baseline. Active Bearish Order Block (-OB) supply is defending 5,414.66–5,428.88, leaving downside liquidity exposed toward the 4,995.83–5,025.92 demand zone. An open Bearish Fair Value Gap (5,227.16–5,406.25) reinforces overhead supply on relief rallies. Session Follow-Up: Sellers defended overhead supply throughout the session; staying below 5,373.70 preserves the drawdown trajectory toward 5,252.96.
