Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research (Retail), Kotak Securities Ltd said, “On the last day of the November F&O series, markets rebounded sharply, largely supported by gains in Reliance.”
He added, “Technically, Nifty has formed a strong bullish candle and at the same time, it is consistently taking support between 17400 to 17350 levels.”
“We are of the view that the intraday support has now shifted to 17450 from 17350 and as long as it's trading above 17450 the uptrend wave will persist up to 17600-17700. On the flip side, below 17450, the uptrend would be vulnerable,” Chouhan said.
