Markets Ahead
Our market has been following this sell-on-rise style for many days. We can expect this pattern to continue till it reaches the 16,750-800 range, and this region could be the decider. On the upper side, we need to continue watching the resistance at the 17,075 level, 17,130-150 zone and 17,210.
Bank Nifty is showing good weakness. I do not expect it to break 40,000 resistance immediately. I will be watching the 38,940 and 38,500 levels in Bank Nifty.
Reliance is down 4% from its recent swing high! I do expect good support from 2170 levels.
