The market continued to gain for the second consecutive session on June 25, the first day of the July series, backed by banking & financials, metals, auto and select tech stocks.
The BSE Sensex climbed 226.04 points to 52,925.04, while the Nifty50 jumped 69.90 points to 15,860.40 and formed a bullish candle, resembling a Hanging Man pattern on the daily charts. During the week, the index formed a bullish candle on the weekly scale as it gained 1.1 percent.
“A small positive candle was formed with lower shadow as per daily timeframe chart. Technically, this action indicates a buy on minor dips opportunity in the market. Though this pattern resembles the negative Hanging many type formation, but having this pattern formed at the wrong place, the negative implication is ruled out,” said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities.
“The Nifty made a swing high of around 15,870 on Friday and this possibly signals repeated testing of key overhead resistance around 15,900 levels. Technically, such repeated testing of overhead resistances could eventually result in an upside breakout of the said hurdle. Hence, a decisive move above 15,900 could open more upside in the short term,” he said.
He feels the underlying short-term trend for the Nifty continues to be positive with rangebound action. “The market is now placed to show upside momentum above the hurdle of 15,900 levels in the coming few sessions. A sustainable move above this area could open further upside towards 16,200 in the near term. Immediate support is placed at 15,770,” he said.
The broader markets also gained strength with the Nifty Midcap 100 and Smallcap 100 indices rising 1.1 percent and 0.54 percent respectively.
