It was in the last hour, that the bears overtook and a sharp decline was witnessed which took the index below the 39000 mark. The 20DMA (38401) may act as immediate support. The RSI is flattened near the 60 zone. The MACD histogram has increased further on the bearish side. The index closed above the 200-DMA on July 22, but it is still in the downtrend. The Elder impulse system has formed a third neutral bar. Currently, it is 8.2% above the 50-DMA. The KST and the TSI are in the bearish structure. Half of the index stocks ended with losses. Friday's weekly close is important for the immediate future, as the index is still below the last week's low.
