Mumbai: The benchmark indices witnessed profit booking at higher level, the Nifty shed over 100 points whereas, and the BSE Sensex was down near 400 points. After 59,900 support breakdown the selling pressure was increased and due to profit booking at higher levels the index registered sharp price correction.
However, it trimmed losses from the day lowest level of 59,046 in the last hour of trade, but close well below 59,900 support level which is broadly negative.
Among sectors, profit booking was seen in Reality, IT and selective telecom and banking stocks. While, despite weak momentum buying interest continued in Energy stocks. Technically, on daily charts the index has formed a bearish candle which indicates further weakness from current levels. However, as long as the index is trading above 20-day SMA, the uptrend texture is intact. We are of the view that, the market has completed one leg of correction and now 20-day SMA and 59,000-58,800 would act as a sacrosanct support zone.
"For the day traders, 59,900-60,100 would be the intraday resistance level. On the flip side, 59,000-58,800 would be the strong intraday support zone. The texture of the market is volatile and it will remain volatile till monthly F&O expiry. Hence, buying near strong support level would be ideal strategy for the traders," says Shrikant Chauhan, head of equity research (Retail), Kotak Securities.
