Speaking on the stock market trends during the opening bell trade session Simi Bhaumik, a SEBI registered technical equity analyst said, "The Market is trading in a broader range of 10,900 to 11,400 where it has strong support base in the range of 10,900 to 11,050. Till NSE Nifty is above 11,050 one should maintain buy on dips strategy. On the upper side, the Nifty is facing strong resistance at 11,350 mark to 11,400 levels. Once, it breaks this resistance, then we can expect Nifty to go up to 11,500 mark."
