Daily View on Nifty

Nifty Intra Timeframe (30 min) Nifty Daily Timeframe

Technical Observation:Markets ended with hefty gains on Thursday after a volatile session that saw the Nifty swinging in both directions. The volatilitycame on the back of the RBI monetary policy event. The Nifty finally gained 98.5 points or 0.89% to close at 11,200.15. Broadmarket indices like the BSE Small Cap index gained more, thereby outperforming the Sensex/Nifty. Market breadth was positiveon the BSE/NSE.

Zooming into the Nifty 30 min charts, we observe that while the Nifty has witnessed a volatile session, the short term uptrendstill remains intact. The healthy recovery from the lows in the last one hour of trade also gives the bulls an upper hand for thenear term.

Technical indicators too continue to give positive signals for the short term as the Nifty continues to trade above the 20-daySMA and the 14-day RSI too is in rising mode. The 20-day SMA also continues to remain above the 50-day SMA, indicating thatthe intermediate trend remains positive (See the daily chart above).

We expect the Nifty to move higher in the coming sessions. The uptrend could accelerate once the immediate highs of 11257are cleared. Crucial supports to watch for any trend reversal are at 11026.

Conclusion:The 1-2 day trend of the Nifty remains up despite the high intra day volatility seen in the last two sessions. Immediate upsidetargets for the next 1-2 days are at 11257-11341. Our bets are off if the immediate supports of 11026 are broken.
