The Nifty ended Thursday 0.78 percent higher at 10,768.35. It opened on a stronger note and touched a high of 10,818. Continuous rise, followed by profit booking in the last hour of trade led the benchmark index to close with an inverted Hammer candle.
This chart pattern suggests that the momentum is likely to continue as long as it trades above 10,630. Hence, a buy-on-dips is advised. Midway support on the Nifty is placed around 10,700 levels. On the upside, major resistances are placed around 10,780 and 10,820 levels.
On the Nifty hourly chart, a sharp gap-up opening backed by follow through buying led the benchmark index over the 10,800 mark. However, profit-booking at the end of the session led to a timid closing. 10,700 may now act as the immediate critical support.
