What to Watch
Checkpoints for the next session, drawn only from the levels above:
- A close above 2,656.54 (the 2026-08-13 swing high) would clear the nearest overhead level.
- A close below 2,557.30 (the 2026-10-06 swing low) would break the nearest support.
- The 20-day SMA at 2,606.17 is the short-term trend line to track.
- RSI(14) at 56.61 leaves 13.39 points room before the 70 overbought line.
- Follow-through in the leaders (ULBSL, GVL) is the tell for continuation.
Next Session Outlook
On the rule set used here the next-session read is POSITIVE, because the index closed higher, advancers outnumbered decliners, the close is above the 20-day average and the MACD histogram is positive. The reference levels are overhead, the swing high at 2,656.54 (2026-08-13) and the nearest swing low at 2,557.30 (2026-10-06).
