Key Technical Indicators
Relative Strength Index (RSI): Measures momentum on a scale of 0 to 100. Readings above 70 suggest overbought conditions (possible correction), while readings below 30 suggest oversold conditions (possible bounce). It should not be used in isolation from other indicators.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): Consists of the MACD line, signal line, and histogram. When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, it generates a potential buy signal; the opposite suggests a potential sell signal. Greater divergence between the lines indicates stronger momentum.
Moving Averages: The 50-day SMA reflects the medium-term trend, while the 200-day SMA reflects the long-term trend. Trading above these averages is considered bullish. A "Golden Cross" (50-day crossing above 200-day) is a powerful bullish signal.
Support and Resistance
Support and resistance are historical price zones where the index has previously reversed direction. Support represents a price floor where buying demand concentrates, while resistance represents a ceiling where selling pressure builds. Breakouts above or below these levels on high volume carry significant technical weight.
