10) Experts View

"Markets maintained the upward momentum through the trading session on positive cues from Asian and European indices. IT stocks emerged as the star performers after getting hammered in recent sessions on worries global IT spending may moderate this year due to likely slowdown in key economies. If the optimism continues, we may see some pre-budget rally in the truncated week. On the technical front, despite the strong momentum it has failed to clear 18180/61200 resistance mark. Currently, the index is trading above 20 day SMA and also holding higher bottom formation on intraday charts which is largely positive. For the traders now, 18000/60500 would be the trend decider level above which, the index could move up to 18200-18250/61200-61500. On the flip side, below 18000/60500 selling pressure is likely to increase. Below the same, the index could slip till 17950-17900/60200-60000" -- Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research (Retail) at Kotak Securities Ltd.

"The Nifty traded in a range bound manner today though the the overall structure shows that the index is preparing to start the next leg on the upside. On the daily chart, it has started forming higher top higher bottom & once the swing high of 18184 is crossed then one can initiate a fresh long position. The daily upper Bollinger Band is set for an expansion, which will create room for the price action on the higher side. In the short term, the Nifty is expected to surpass the key hurdle zone of 18260-18300 & head towards 18500. On the other hand, the level of 18000 will provide cushion on the downside." -- Gaurav Ratnaparkhi, Head of Technical Research, Sharekhan by BNP Paribas said.

"The Broader index started the first day of the week with bullish enthusiasm and traded near 18,100 levels throughout the day. The triangle pattern breakout on 120 mins chart has most likely completed its retest near 18,000 levels and a structure seems positive to make a new swing high in the coming trading sessions. NIFTY on the daily chart is trading inline near the upper band of the Triangle pattern and prices have shown optimism to sustain above its 9 & 21 EMA. Strong support is around 18,000 levels and while these supports are held, we can expect prices to edge higher towards 18,200 levels. A daily close above 18,200 levels will help the index move further towards 18,350 levels." -- Rohan Patil, Technical Analyst, SAMCO Securities.
