Despite this, longer-term values remain elevated at 218.1 and 172.0, reflecting broader strength built earlier in the trend. The RSI shows a neutral-to-bearish reading. Current levels stand at 51.33, down from recent peaks near overbought conditions around 70. The downward slope of the RSI confirms reduced buying strength, indicating cooling market activity.

Overall, the indicators point to bearish pressure in the short term. The breakdown from the upward regression channel aligns with declining momentum signals from both MACD and RSI. While longer-term structure remains intact, immediate readings confirm increased selling pressure outweighing recent bullish momentum, signaling potential consolidation or further correction
