Index to test the 200-DMA near 5780/5800pts in the near term

"A brief bounce is taking shape, but it will be interesting to see if the index can overcome recent pivot high and the 200-DMA near 5780/5800pts. Inability to cross this can result in persistence of decline. Below 5500pts, next objectives could be located at projections of 5400/5390pts and 5300pts."
