Positive momentum likely in mkts
73,100 would act as a key support zone; So long as the index trades above the same, the pullback formation is likely to continue. Below 73,100, we could see quick correction till 72,800-72,600
Mumbai: On Monday, the benchmark indices continued the positive momentum. Sensex was up by 560 points. Almost all major sectoral indices traded in positive territory with PSU Banks gaining the most by over 3 per cent.
Technically, after a gap opening, the market held the positive momentum throughout the day, which is largely positive. “For the traders now, 50 day SMA (Simple Moving Average) or 73,100 would act as a key support zone. So long as the index trades above the same, the pullback formation is likely to continue,” said Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities.
On the higher side, index could find the resistance at 73,900-74,100. However, below 73,100, the sentiment could change. Below which we could see one quick correction till 72,800-72,600.
Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities, said, “The buoyancy in equity markets continued due to strong global cues as buying was seen across the board on the back of risk-on sentiment.”
Although geo-political tension in West Asia last week plundered global assets, absence of any fresh eruption of conflict between Israel and Iran also soothed the market sentiment, triggering massive buying for the second straight session. The sharp fall in crude oil prices, currency and gold also boosted the sentiment.
