Short-term texture still positive
60,500-6,900 could be the immediate profit booking zone for the bulls, while 60,000-59,800 would be sacrosanct support zone
Sensex takes a pause, Nifty at fresh peak
Mumbai: The benchmark indices continued positive momentum for two sessions in a row as BSE Sensex was up by 415 points. Among sectors, Energy and Oil & Gas indices rallied over one percent
whereas intraday profit booking was seen in reality and PSU bank stocks. Technically, after a sharp bounce back on last Monday the market opened with a gap up, but witnessed intraday profit booking at higher levels. However, the short-term texture of the market is still into the positive side.
“We are of the view that, 60,500-6,900 could be the immediate profit booking zone for the bulls, while 60,000-59,800 would be the sacrosanct support zone for the trade,” says Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research (Retail), Kotak Securities.
Buying on dips and sell on rallies would be the ideal strategy for the short-term traders. However, below 59,800 uptrend would be vulnerable.
