What should traders do? Here’s what analysts said:
Jatin Gedia, SharekhanOn the daily charts, we can observe that the Nifty has found buying interest from the support zone of 24000 – 24090 where the daily lower Bollinger band is placed. The hourly momentum indicator has triggered a positive crossover and there is a high probability that the counter-trend pullback rally which started today can continue over the next few trading sessions till 24,900 – 24,930 where the key daily moving averages are placed.

Nifty gave a dead cat bounce from its support of 24100 levels. Immediate resistance for the index is at 24500 levels, a close above which can take nifty towards 24800 levels. However, on the weekly chart, the momentum indicators continue to show weakness in the index. Today’s bounce in the index can be used as an opportunity to sell with a target of 23700 levels which is the next support below 24100 levels. Options writer’s data for the monthly expiry showed increased writing of calls at 24500 and above levels, indicating resistance at 24500 level in the index.
