The key range is: **27,340 → 27,460** Break and hold above → continuation toward **27,600+** Lose support → pullback into **27,100 – 26,900 zone** Going into this overnight session, this is a **range break setup** where expansion is likely once one side gives. Trend remains **bullish**, but this is where **patience and confirmation matter most**.
