Price action below cloud and 200-DMA, momentum with the bears.

Stochs and RSI are biased lower, RSI well below 50 mark which suggests strength in the downtrend.

MACD has slipped into the negative territory and ADX is rising in support of the current weakness.

Scope for test of lower Bollinger band at 151.98. Bullish divergence could limit downside.
