“The Nifty opened on a negative note on October 5; however, there was no follow through selling. The key hourly moving averages provided a cushion on the downside. The Nifty formed a base there in the first half of the session & took a leap thereon in the second half, Gaurav Ratnaparkhi, Head of Technical Research, Sharekhan by BNP Paribas said.

“On the way up, the index crossed 61.8 per cent retracement of the last week’s decline & reached near the 78.6% retracement mark i.e. 17840. So that is an immediate resistance to watch out for.”

“Overall structure shows that the Nifty is still in a short-term consolidation phase & is heading towards the upper end of the range i.e. 17950 where it is likely to witness selling pressure. On the downside, 17700-17640 will act as a near term support zone,” Ratnaparkhi added
