Technical View

Domestic markets are taking a breather after a sharp rally crossing the previous all-time highs last week. The benchmark Nifty could face stiff resistance around the 18,600 mark as there is massive call writing around these strikes in the weekly expiry.

On the lower side, 18,300 and 18,000 will act as good support for the markets.
