“The Nifty opened on a negative note on October 11 however received support near the key hourly moving averages. Thereon the index had a leap on the upside and crossed the all-time high of 17947 as well as the psychological mark of 18000 on an intraday basis,” Gaurav Ratnaparkhi, Head of Technical Research, Sharekhan by BNP Paribas said in a note.

He added, “However the index couldn’t sustain there on a closing basis. So the index is currently trading near a make or break level. If it manages to cross the level of 18000 on a closing basis then the consolidation will be considered to have broken on the upside & the Nifty will then be set for a significant upside.”

“However, failure to cross 18000 on a closing basis would keep the index in the short-term consolidation phase. The key hourly moving averages, which are currently near 17900 – 17850 will continue to act as an immediate cushion on the downside, Ratnaparkhi said.
