Speaking on the current market scenario; Prakash Pandey, MD & CEO at Plutus Advisors said, "Market is in the range of 8,900 to 9,350. If the NSE Nifty manages to break above 9,400 and sustains above that then we can expect it to head for next top-out klevels for 10,800. However, in case it breaks below 8,900 and sustains below this, then it can furtehr go down up to 8,555 to 8,300 levels." 

Deepak Jasani, Head Retail Research, HDFC Securities said, "Technically, while the Nifty has bounced back, the underlying short term trend remains down. Further downsides are likely once the immediate support of 9117 is broken. Any pullback rallies could find resistances at 9347-9450."
