What will happen today?
Nifty Index: Today, Nifty Index may open on a negative note near 17810-17785-17760 levels; if open, trade and sustain above 17810-17835-17870 then, the index may test 17915-17950-17970-18020-18070 levels. On the other hand, the immediate support lies at 17770-17720 if, the Index move below 17720 then, it may try to re-visit 17695-550-17650-17610-17585-17545-17505-17475-17445 levels.
Special Mention: On Friday, Nifty Index continued the pull back rally till 17870 and closed below our resistance levels i.e., 17775; today, the Index must break 17870-17950 levels, if it moves and sustain above 17870-17950 then, it may re-test 18020-18080-18200 levels in the near term, the Nifty Index may face strong resistance near 18080-18200 band in the near term, it must move and close above these levels atleast for three consecutive trading sessions, then only further up move is possible till 18345-18450-18570 levels. On the other hand, the strong support lies at 17735-17445, if the Index moves below 17735-17445 then, it may try to re-visit 17355-17250-17165 levels in the near term. Let see how the Index opens today at 17810-17785-17760 levels, this week the intra volatility may be in a high note due to RBI MPC meet, weak global cues and India Inc. Q3 results, trade with due caution is my advice at this juncture.
