Final Note
*The Index has stayed well above the long-term trend line and the 200 DMA at 17800 The weekly chart shows a steep upward channel with top around 18600 and support at 17970 with a Pivot at 18320 We are entering in to another crucial week and crucial range. The zone between 17700-18300 has seen sharp moves on either side A word of caution Index has made higher highs and lower lows Daily charts show a Hammer candle and has potential to move towards 18600 if manages a daily close above 18240 A new trend seems to be emerging towards attempt of earlier peaks or even towards posting an ATH. As noted in the previous blog, the index has been making alternate bullish and bearish candles for the past 5 weeks. We can expect a positive candle Expected to remain in the range of 17970-18600 and any close outside the range requires re-assessment of risk A daily close below 18K would see the Index drift towards 17840 and possibly 17600 Expect a tuff fight during the week as the monthly option expiry could see increased volatility
