Sensex, Nifty trade tepid ahead of US-China trade talks; UCO Bank, Indiabulls Real Estate, Aurobindo Pharma stocks gain

The stock market of India trade sideways as the FIIs have gone neutral ahead of the US-China trade talks scheduled on October 10-11th. In the Opening Bell session, the BSE Sensex ticked 2 points higher at 37,534 levels while the 50-stock Nifty index was 6 points down at 11,120 levels. The Bank Nifty index went up 28 points up in the Opening Bell at 27,796 levels.

Speaking on the current market scenario, SEBI registered technical equity analyst Simi Bhaumik said, "The market is range-bound and has strong support at 11,100 levels. It has strong resistance at 11,260 levels. It's breakage of either side would decide the bull or bear grip at the Indian indices. Till the Nifty trades in this range, I suggest traders to adopt buy on dips strategy."
