Speaking on the current market outlook Simi Bhaumik,  a SEBI registered technical equity analyst told Zee Business Online, "The market has strong support at 11,500 and I don't see it breaking in the near future. In fact, the market is expected to trade in near 100-110 points range as it has strong resistance at 11,610-630 levels. Till the market breaks this resistance, I would recommend stock market investors to maintain buy on dips strategy."
