Momentum Indicators

The relative strength index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis that measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions in the price of a stock or index. Traditional interpretation and usage of the RSI are that values of 70 or above indicate that a security is becoming overbought or overvalued and may be primed for a trend reversal or corrective pullback in price. An RSI reading of 30 or below indicates an oversold or undervalued condition.

The RSI reading on the daily timeframe is 46.57. Meanwhile, the RSI reading on the weekly chart is 42.77.

On the other side, the MACD line and Signal line both are in the negative zone, i.e. below zero in the daily timeframe, with the MACD reading at -13.45. This indicates a bearish sentiment.

Moving Averages

The 5-day Moving Average and 20-day Moving Average form an overlapping pattern. This is typically an indecisive signal but requires further confirmation.

1,855 to 1,815 zone may act as the nearest support whereas, the 2100 zone will act as resistance.
