What will happen today?
Nifty Index: Today, Nifty Index may open on a flat to positive note near 17785-17810-17825 levels; if open, trade and sustain above 17825 then, the index may test 17855-17870-17885-17915-17950-17970-18020-18070-18105 levels. On the other hand, the immediate support lies at 17740-17725 if, the Index move below 17725 then, it may try to re-visit 17695-17665-17640-17610-17565-17545-17505-17475-17445 levels.
Special Mention: Yesterday, Nifty Index unable to continue the pull back rally above 17870 and formed an inside day pattern i.e., not broken the previous day high or low and closed just below threshold 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 17700-17555, if the Index moves below 17700-17555 then, it may try to re-visit 17450-17355-17250 levels in the near term. Let see how the Index opens today at 17785-17810-17825 levels, the intra volatility may be in a high note due to tomorrow's RBI MPC meet, weak global cues and India Inc. Q3 results, trade with due caution is my advice at this juncture.
Nifty Bank Index: Yesterday, Nifty Bank Index, opened at 41530.15 on the opening move, it made a day high 41724.50 thereafter, it moved down, made a day low 41261.20 and closed on a negative note at 41374.65 with an intra loss 125.05 points, i.e., -0.30%, today the Nifty Bank Index must move above 41445-41540 levels; if to do so, then it may try to test 41625-41730-41850-41980-42015-42165-42320 levels. On the other hand, any weakness near 41445-41540 further, it moves below 41325-41260 then, the Index may re-visit 41135-41025-40870-40725-40720-40670-40470-40345 levels.
