Book profit on long positions

Mumbai The domestic stock market on Monday unexpectedly closed much better. Initially, the market went down to Friday's lowest level, however, it was only for a short time and the market bounced back soon. This shows that the market is under the control of the bulls. Market giants Reliance, ITC, TATA STEEL, ICICI Bank and HDFC twins all helped the market close higher. The 52,000 level is the crucial resistance level for the market, however, earlier resistance of 50,500 and 50,200 levels would act as major support for the market. A close below the level of 52,000 would keep the market range bound between 52,000 and 50,200 levels.
"One should book profit on long positions if the market moves towards, 52,000/52,300 levels. Buying is advisable only at major supports like 50,500/50,400 levels," says Shrikant Chouhan, EVP (equity technical research), Kotak Securities.
