The Nifty started on a positive note Wednesday but failed to keep the momentum going. The index closed below its crucial 200-day exponential moving average (DEMA) for the second day in a row. It formed a small-bodied candle which closely resembles a ‘Spinning Top’ kind of indecisive pattern.
The Nifty index opened gap up and negated its formation of lower highs - lower lows of the last four trading session. It came under selling pressure in afternoon trade and pulled the index below 200-DEMA placed around 10165, and 5-DEMA which was placed at 10,185.
Investors are advised to tread with caution ahead of the US Federal Reserve policy meeting. But, technically, there is a higher possibility the market has bottomed out near 10,040, suggest experts.
India VIX fell down by 3.22 percent at 15.10. A decline in volatility from the last two trading sessions is providing some comfort to the Bulls but needs to fall below 13.50-13 to process for a short-term reversal after the recent decline of around 1100 points.
According to Pivot charts, the key support level is placed at 10,116.37, followed by 10,077.53. If the index starts moving upwards, key resistance levels to watch out are 10,210.67 and 10,266.13.
The Nifty Bank index closed at 24,255.6 on Wednesday. The important Pivot level, which will act as crucial support for the index, is placed at 24,156.27, followed by 24,056.93. On the upside, key resistance levels are placed at 24,407.37, followed by 24,559.13.
The Nifty futures on the Singaporean stock exchange were trading higher by around 17.5 points at 10,196, a rise of around 0.17 percent. This indicates that the domestic market is likely to open on a flat to positive note.
