📌 Practical Summary
The indicators clearly lean Long, with strong support in the $1,286–$1,299 zone and an initial target at $1,534 (+13%). However, the 32% decline in OI calls for caution — wait for confirmation of a bounce or a break above $1,380 before entering if you don't already have a position.
