Good Morning all... 

What has happened yesterday? Nifty Index, as expected and written, opened on a flat to positive note at 17965.55, our expected opening band 17955-17970-17990; on opening move, the Index made a day high 18004.35 thereafter, it moved down, made a day low 17818.40 and closed at 17844.60 on a negative note with an intra loss 99.60 points, i.e., -0.56%.

What will happen today? 

Nifty Index: Today, Nifty Index may open on a flat note near 17845-17865-17880 levels; if open, trade and sustain above 17880 then, the index may test 17895-17940-17970-18004-18034-18055-18070-18098-18135 levels. On the other hand, the immediate support lies at 17820-17800 if, the Index move below 17800 then, it may try to re-visit 17770-17745-17720-17695-17670-17655 levels.

Special Mention: Yesterday, Nifty Index unable to continue the pull back rally beyond 18034, the weakness dragged the Index till 17818.40 and closed below 17972; today, the Index must break 18005-18135 levels, if it moves and sustain above 18005-18135 then, it may re-test 18200-18345-18405 levels in the near term. On the other hand, the strong support lies at 17820-17770-17720, if the Index moves below 17770-17720 then, it may try to re-visit 17540-17445-17355 levels in the near term. Let see how the Index opens today at 17845-17865-17880 levels, this week, the intra volatility may be in a high note due to F&O Expiry and global cues, trade with due caution is my advice at this juncture.

On the other hand, any weakness near 40760-40880 further, it moves below 40665-40610-40580 then, the Index may re-visit 40455-40385-40285-40165-40025 levels.
