Market may weaken further from current level

Mumbai, Dec 09

Today’s market wrap by Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities:

Today, the benchmark indices witnessed a volatile trading session. After a roller-coaster activity, the Sensex was down by 436 points.

Among sectors, the Nifty PSU Bank index rallied 1.25 per cent, whereas the IT index lost the most, shedding 1.25 percent. Technically, after an early morning intraday sharp selloff, the market took support near 84,400 and bounced back.

However, the short-term texture of the market is still on the weak side. Additionally, on daily and intraday charts, it is holding a lower high formation, which supports further weakness from the current levels.

“We are of the view that the current market texture is weak but oversold, hence we could see an extension of the pullback rally in the near future,” says Shrikant Chouhan, Head - Equity Research, Kotak Securities.

For day traders, 84,400 would act as a key support zone. As long as the market is trading above this level, the pullback formation is likely to continue. On the higher side, 85,000 and 85,200 would be immediate resistance areas for the bulls. On the flip side, below 84,400, the selling pressure is likely to accelerate. Below this, the market could retest the level of 84,000.
