The VN-Index declined, sustaining a tug-of-war stance as the High Wave Candle pattern emerged. This reflects investors' cautious sentiment as the index retests the old peak from October 2024 (1,290-1,305 points territory). Unless the index breaks out of this range soon, a resumption of the downward trend is highly likely. Notably, the Stochastic Oscillator is venturing deep into overbought territory, suggesting a sell signal in the upcoming sessions. Should this materialize, the risks of a market correction intensify.
