The current Relative Strength Index (RSI), reading of 54.39 supports this, suggesting that the market has not yet entered overbought territory and still has potential for further gains, as

A drop below this level could signal a pullback, with the next lines of defense at 23,400 and 23,000.

The index recorded a weekly loss of 0.85%.

Our Stance: Looking ahead, the key level to watch is the immediate support at 23,880, where the index has a rising trendline. If the index can hold above this level, it could set the stage for a potential rebound. On the other hand, if the index breaks below this support, it may face stronger tests at lower support zones between 23,400 and 23,000. Such a move could signal deeper corrections and a shift in market sentiment. Investors should remain
