Leaning bearish 42/100

Tone

Index futures enter the Asia session consolidating near their daily lows after a sustained afternoon slide. ES has carved out tight base support around 7674 while NQ holds just above 29500 in low-volatility overnight trade. The immediate structure remains defensive, with any rebound capped by overhead breakdowns from the prior regular session.
