Put-Call Ratio Signal

PCR holds steady at 0.703, remaining below the bearish contrarian threshold of 0.7, signaling excessive call dominance. No shift from the prior day reinforces persistent bullish overreach in options sentiment.

Futures Confirmation

Futures OI is zero with no open positions, eliminating any directional confirmation from the futures segment. The absence of futures participation undermines the options-driven call bias, leaving the structure uncorroborated.
