Technical Analysis
Momentum indicators remain in the oversold region, with the index trading below both its short-term and long-term moving averages. The formation of a small white candle on the daily chart, closing below the previous session, suggests that bearish momentum persists. Key support lies around 22,500—a breakdown below this level could accelerate the decline. However, given the oversold conditions, a short-term rebound remains possible. The nearest intraday resistance stands at 22,625; a breakout above this level could trigger a pullback rally.
