Tuesday Trade Setups
Commenting on the outlook for Nifty today, Osho Krishan, Senior Analyst (Technical & Derivatives Research), Angel One said, “Nifty 50 index has reversed from the upper limit of the ‘ascending channel’, suggesting strong resilience in the near term. Also, the rate of upswing and downswing in favour of the bears indicates exhaustion for the bulls. At present, the upper limit of the channel around 23150-23200 is likely to act as an intermediate hurdle. Meanwhile, the breakout neckline around 22800-22750 is expected to provide a cushion to the benchmark. For now, the index is likely to remain within the above range with a bullish bias; therefore, it is necessary to act accordingly and exercise appropriate risk management.”
