Technical Overview
The 50 index opened under selling pressure owning to the Israel-Hamas war, however, the index managed to pull higher amidst the pullback rally. The upside remained capped ahead of the 38.2% retracement level of its prior swing high and low while the VIX surged 3.8% during the week. The consecutive gap-down areas in the last throwback rally from the life-highs are anticipated to act as stronger resistance zone. It will be crucial that these gaps be decisively filled and reclaimed to attract bullish strength.
