Indian equities ended Tuesday’s trade on a positive note for the eighth consecutive session, led by gains in IT, metal, and oil and gas stocks. Nifty at the close-ended near the 18,150 mark
“Nifty has formed a small candle while on intraday charts, it is still holding higher bottom formation, which is broadly positive. In the near future, 18050-18000 would be the key support zone, while 18200-18250 would act as an immediate hurdle for the bulls. However, below 18000, the uptrend would be vulnerable,” Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research (Retail), Kotak Securities, said.

The stock price has been in a consistent uptrend over the last six sessions. The chart pattern indicates the formation of an important bottom reversal around Rs 250 levels in March. Presently, the stock price is in an attempt of an upside breakout of the key overhead resistance of the descending trend line around Rs 278-280 levels. Volume has started to expand during the upside breakout and the daily 14-period RSI is showing a positive signal.

After a sharp downtrend from January to March, the stock price has shifted into a consolidation phase in the last month with a positive bias. The sharp upmove of this week so far is signaling a possibility of a rounding bottom formation. This overall positive chart pattern suggests an upside breakout of that pattern around Rs 108-118 levels in the near term. Volume has started to expand during an upmove in the stock price.
