Good Morning all... 

What has happened yesterday? Nifty Index, as expected and written, opened on a positive note at 18101.95, our expected opening band 18075-18100-18120 on opening move, the Index made a day high 18120.30 thereafter, it moved down, made a day low 17982.60 and closed at 17992.15 on a negative note with an intra loss 50.80 points, i.e., -0.28%.

What will happen today? 

Nifty Index: Today, the Nifty Index may open on a flat note near 17980-18010 levels; if open, trade and sustain above 18010 then, the index may test 18050-18080-18120-18150-18180-18220-18265 levels. On the other hand, the immediate support lies at 17945-17920 if, the Index move below 17920 then, it may try to re-visit 17890-17865-17830-17805-17775 levels.

Special Mention: Yesterday, the Nifty Index continued the downward move till 17892 and closed well below our threshold support levels i.e, 18080; today, the Index must break 18120-18265 levels, if it moves and sustain above 18265 then, it may re-test 18345-18430-18475 levels in the near term. Once again I reiterate that, the Nifty Index may face strong resistance near 18265-18320 band, it must move and close above these levels atleast for three consecutive trading sessions, then only further up move is possible till 18475-18600-18700 in the near term. On the other hand, if the Index moves below 17970-17890-17830 then, it may try to re-visit 17775-17430 levels in the near term. Let see how the Index opens today at 17980-18010 levels, the intra volatility may be in a high note due to today's week-end factor, trade with due caution and aviod aggressive short/long position, is my advise at this juncture.
