Market update at 10 AM: Sensex is up 62.89 points or 0.11% at 55444.06, and the Nifty added 2.30 points or 0.01% at 16525.10
Sameet Chavan, Chief Analyst – Technical and Derivatives, Angel One:
Despite SGX indicating a sluggish start, our markets opened marginally in the green around 16600. This was followed by some consolidation in the first half; but as we stepped into the latter one, some tentativeness was visible across the broader market. As a result, the Nifty sneaked below 16500 and even went on to slide slightly below 16450 during the penultimate hour. Fortunately, the banking space came to the rescue and lifted the market to eventually reclaim the 16500 on a closing basis.
Since the last couple of sessions, the benchmark index has been struggling around 16700, and yesterday it did not even reach there. After marking a high of 16649.20, the Nifty once again felt some heat and in the process, corrected in the vicinity of 16500 – 16400. Since this support zone holds the key as it coincides with the recent breakout point as well as the’20-day EMA’, some buying was visible in the last 30 minutes of trade. The global uncertainty is still looming over and hence, we are not seeing convincing moves after reaching the key resistance levels of 16700. If there is no aberration on the global front, we continue to remain sanguine as long as 16400 – 16370 is defended successfully. Until then one should use these declines to go long. On the upside, the resistance remains at 16600 – 16700; but it’s a matter of time, we would see Nifty surpassing these levels and then heading towards 16850 – 16950 in coming sessions.
The coming session is likely to be the exciting one and it would be interesting to see how things pan out on the global as well as domestic front. We remain hopeful and expect the stock-specific action to continue in the forthcoming session.
