On a technical point of view, the index retreated after rebounding to the 50% retracement on a daily chart. After that the prices broke below the rising trend line drawn from September, indicating that corrective rebound is possibly over. Currently, the prices are trading below both 20-day and 50-day moving averages.
Bearish readers could set the resistance level at 94.15, while support levels would be located at 91.75 and 89.45.
