Mkt May Fall Further
For now, the 78,000 is the key level, below which it can slip to 77,300-77,200; Above 78,000 level, expect a bounce to 78,300-78,500 levels
Mkt May Fall Further
Mumbai: The benchmark indices continued profit booking at higher levels, with NSE Nifty ends 162 points lower and BSE Sensex down by 528 points. Among sectors, the Realty, Oil and Gas, indices shed over two per cent, while selective FMCG stocks registered buying interest at lower levels. Technically, after a muted market open, there was consistent selling pressure at higher levels, resulting in a bearish candle on the daily charts and a lower top formation on the intraday charts, indicating further weakness from the current levels.
Shrikant Chouhan, head (equity research), Kotak Securities: “We believe that the current market texture is weak, but oversold, thus a strong possibility of a pullback rally from the current levels cannot be ruled out. For traders now, the 78,000 will be the key level to watch; below this level, the market could continue its weak formation till 77,300-77,200.” Conversely, if it rises above 78,000 level, it could bounce back to 78,300-78,500. Short-term traders should remain cautious and be very selective, as there is a risk of getting trapped at lower levels.
