Sensex daily chart

Daily chart of Nifty


Review
Nifty remained volatile for most of the day as India awaits the final stretch of general elections.
The short-term outlook remains positive, with the index remaining above key moving averages.
Support is found at 22,900, below which the index could fall towards 22,800. On the high end,
bears are active around 23,000-23,050. A decisive break above 23,050 could trigger a stronger
rally towards higher levels.
From a technical perspective, the benchmark index has retreated from the upper band of the
'ascending channel', indicating Nifty's strong resilience in the near term. Additionally, a rise-to-fall
ratio that favors the bears suggests that the bulls are exhausted. At the current juncture, the
upper rail of the channel located near 23,15023,200 may be considered an intermediate obstacle.
On the other hand, a breakout of the neckline near 22,800-22,750 is expected to provide cushion
to the benchmark index. Currently, the index is likely to hover within the above range with a
bullish bias and investors need to act accordingly and engage in proper risk management.
