Nifty withholds the 26000 mark amid modest recovery

The GIFT Nifty signaled a challenging outset for the benchmark index, reflecting the subdued performance across global bourses. Consequently, the Nifty50 index commenced the session with a downward gap. Nevertheless, market participants exhibited resilience, as initial setbacks were promptly addressed, enabling the index to recover most of its intraday losses. Ultimately, amid a modest rebound, the Nifty50 managed to hold the 26000 mark, concluding the session with a marginal 0.08 percent decline.

There have been minimal alterations in the price action of the benchmark index when compared to the previous trading session. The index has successfully maintained its position above the 20-DEMA, and the recent declines have been favorable for bullish sentiment, as indicated by the trends from the last couple of sessions. From a technical standpoint, 25900-25850 is anticipated to cushion any shortcomings in the near period, followed by the sacrosanct support of 25750-25700 subzone. On the flip side, 26150-26200 still stands as a sturdy hurdle and a definitive breach of this zone could facilitate a move towards new all-time highs of 26325 in the near future.

We hold a cautiously optimistic view of current market conditions and suggest continuing with a ‘Buy-on-Dips’ strategy until a decisive breakout is observed. In the meantime, it is prudent to focus on thematic movers that are likely to present opportunities for day traders.
