The price hit the lowest in two weeks, with breach of initial Fibo support at 68270 (23.6% of 56427/71929) and completion of failure swing pattern on daily chart, generating bearish signal.
Momentum indicator (14-d) broke into negative territory and the price slid below 10/20DMA’s, weakening near-term structure, with Friday’s twist of daily cloud, also expected to attract.
Bears eye 100DMA (66529) which guards pivotal 66K support zone (higher base / Fibo 38.2%), loss of which would generate reversal signal and spark further weakness.
Near-term action should stay capped by broken Fibo level at 68270 and broken daily Kijun-sen at 68512, to keep near-term bias with bears.
