Pre-Market View: Nifty Expected To Hold Bullish Momentum
"Technically, the week started on a positive note; after a gap-up open, the market maintained its positive momentum throughout the day. A bullish candle on the daily chart and a reversal formation on the intraday chart indicate further upside from current levels. For day traders, 25,900/84500 would act as an immediate support zone. As long as the market trades above this level, the bullish trend is likely to continue."Shrikant Chouhan, Head, Equity Research, Kotak Securities
"From a technical perspective, the Nifty continued to hold firm above its crucial support zone of 25,700–25,750, maintaining a sideways-to-bullish bias. On the upside, immediate resistance is seen at 26,000–26,100, and a decisive move above 26,000 could accelerate the rally toward 26,100–26,200 in the near term. The trend remains positive as long as the index sustains above 25,750, suggesting that dips may continue to attract buying interest."Amruta Shinde, Technical & Derivative Analyst, Choice Broking
