Upon analyzing the technical indicators, the index is found to be in close proximity to the Bollinger lower band, and the MACD histogram indicates a positive divergence.

In conclusion, the index has demonstrated a bullish pattern, supported by technical indicators, indicating a positive outlook for traders in the short term. We suggest investors to buy the index and its constituents at the current market price or dips.
Last close: 3,643.95 (Range Bound with Bullish bias)
The index is currently presenting two critical levels for traders and investors to watch closely. A trade above 3,700 would be considered a positive breakout, while a trade below 3,600 would be treated as a negative breakdown. The breakout or breakdown at these levels could potentially trigger a move in either direction.
Traders and investors should keep a watchful eye on these levels as a close above or below could add a trigger in the direction of the move. If the index trades above 3,700, the next resistance levels on charts are expected to appear at 3,780 - 3,835.
Conversely, if the index trades below 3,600, the next support levels are expected to appear around 3,550 - 3,510.
Technical indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) are showing signs of a pullback, while the Parabolic SAR has turned positive. Therefore, the best trading strategy for traders would either be to wait for a breakout or for risky traders to buy at the current market price with a strict stop loss of 3,600 and a target expected at 3,780 - 3,835.
In conclusion, the index is currently presenting a range-bound trading pattern on hourly charts. Traders and investors are advised to watch the critical levels closely, as a breakout or breakdown could trigger a move in either direction.
The technical indicators are indicating a potential pullback, while the Parabolic SAR has turned positive, making it an opportune time for traders to capitalise on this market trend.
