Research Desk Order Flow & Session Note
Nikkei 225 (N225) (60,459.58, +2.87%) trades under defensive institutional distribution following a MSS at 62,726.18, positioned in the Premium zone (16.7% from the 51,812.23 50% Equilibrium pivot). Any intraday retest into the 64,819.56–65,067.80 Bearish Order Block faces overhead distribution, with 50,347.65–50,691.22 acting as the primary downside magnet. An open Bearish Fair Value Gap (57,775.16–62,653.98) reinforces overhead supply on relief rallies. Session Follow-Up: Sellers defended overhead supply throughout the session; staying below 62,263.77 preserves the drawdown trajectory toward 57,212.03.
