Level-based trading is the ideal strategy
Mumbai, Sep 02
Today, the benchmark indices experienced profit booking at higher levels. The Sensex was down by 207 points. Among sectors, FMCG and Defence indices rallied over 1 per cent, whereas intraday profit booking was seen in selective banking and financial stocks.
Technically, after an intraday rally, the market faced resistance near 80,700. Due to profit booking at higher levels, it corrected sharply, shedding over 700 points from the day's highs.
“We believe that the intraday market remains volatile and non-directional; hence, level-based trading would be the ideal strategy for day traders,” says Shrikant Chouhan, Head - Equity Research, Kotak Securities.
On the lower side, 80,000 would act as a crucial support zone. Below this, the market could retest levels of 79,700-79,500.
On the higher side, the 20-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) or 80,500 and 80,700 could serve as key resistance levels for the bulls. A successful breakout above 80,700 could push the market up to 81,200.
