Sweep below

Price runs down to 51830.50, then 51357.00. Watch whether it closes back above (stops taken, buyers return) or keeps closing below (the move continues).

These are levels where stops are likely to sit, not entries. Price can go through any of them. Always use a stop loss and keep risk small — a common rule is 1% of the account or less on a single trade.
