The tape sits 2.27% above the 200-SMA and ~5.5% above the 50-SMA, confirming a trend-up regime without extreme extension. MACD at 21.15 over its 18.06 signal line shows positive momentum crossover persistence, supporting continued drift higher. RSI at 62.18 is constructive but inside the upper band — enough fuel to press 1000 handle, not enough to call it stretched. The 970.13 (200-SMA) and 940.52 (50-SMA) stand as layered support, framing a defined risk envelope beneath spot.
