Price is in a correction after a tweezer top candlestick pattern was formed near its all-time high resistance. The 20EMA is acting as support and has halted the price decline for the past three days even though there was intraday penetration last night. A move below 26,680 could lead to a test of 26,520, which is the Fibonacci 38% retracement point and the resistance-turned-support level. Stochastic has turned down from the overbought extreme. MACD is still bullish at the moment.
