Key Insights Summary

Daily structure remains strongly constructive after the sharp May pullback and rebound, with price reclaiming the upper part of the monthly session range and pressing back toward the recent 7540 resistance area. The pivot picture is mixed at the very shortest horizon because the latest swing pivot trend is still DTrend from the recent high, but the higher-timeframe hi/lo pivot trend remains UTrend and the broader moving-average stack is firmly bullish. Price is above the 10, 20, 55, 100, and 200-day benchmarks, which keeps the intermediate and long-term swing backdrop aligned to the upside. The recent large-range advance from the April low shows strong momentum and a trend-recovery profile, with the current action transitioning from selloff repair into a renewed breakout attempt near prior highs.
