Nifty Today:

The index continued its uptrend led by the index heavyweights and thus Nifty continues to record new milestones. It has surpassed the 18700 mark too and now seems to be heading towards the milestone of 19000. Most of the sectors participated in the rally except PSU Banks which witnessed some profit booking post the recent run up. This indicates a broad market participation and the Nifty Midcap index too given a breakout from its consolidation phase. The global factors also remain positive as of now for the equity markets. The momentum readings on the lower time frame charts have reached the overbought zone, but we have often seen extended upmoves in the market when the trend is strong enough. Going ahead, the sector specific buying interest is likely to continue and hence traders should look for stock specific buying opportunities from a near term perspective. With up moves in index, the support base is shifting higher and the immediate support for Nifty is now placed around  18550 followed by the ’20 DEMA’ support at 18300. On the flipside, 18900-19000 would be the immediate range to watch out for as the option writers positions are placed around the same.
