“Nifty managed to hold 100-DMA and make a smart recovery from the lower levels at 21777. 22300 will be the first hurdle, while 22525 will be the next hurdle. If Nifty slips below 22000, then 100-DMA around 21700 will be the next support level,” ET quoted Pravesh Gour, Senior Technical Analyst at Swastika Investmart as saying.
“Overall we expect volatility to continue in the market in the absence of any major positive trigger, while focus will continue on stock-specific action amid the earning season,” said Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Retail Research, Motilal Oswal.
“Technically, the set-up is mildly negative at this point with Nifty below the crucial resistance zone of 22,300-350. A crossover beyond this area is required for the bulls to be back in the game,” said Tejas Shah, JM Financial and BlinkX.
