Expert Market Insights
Kotak Securities’ Head of Equity Research, Shrikant Chouhan stated, “There is still a conflict between bulls and bears because of an Inside Body candle formation. A ‘ bullish ‘ ” market “ structure is visible in the short term, but to move up," … “needs to cross the 24,400 (Nifty) and 80,300 (Sensex) resistance zones. Markets could target 24,500-24,600 (Nifty) and 80,600-80,900 (Sensex) once these levels are crossed. On the other hand, penetration of 24,200 (Nifty) and 79,600 (Sensex) can invite a sharp intraday correction to 24,100/79,300, with potential further downside to 24,000/79,000.”
