Nifty saw a gap-down opening on Friday and the selling pressure continued throughout the session dragging the index to close near the day's low. The daily price action formed a sizable bearish candle.

Nifty closed at 14,619 with a loss of 275 points (down 1.85 percent) while the Sensex lost 983 points (down 1.98 percent). The index failed to surpass the past 4-6 weeks multiple resistance zone of 14,900-on closing basis.

Going forward, 14,900-15,000 levels will remain a crucial resistance zone. On the daily and weekly chart, the index continues to trend lacklustre within 14,900-14,200, representing a sideways trend.

The next higher levels to be watched are around 14,800 levels. Any sustainable move above 14,800 may cause the momentum towards 15,000-15,200 levels. On the downside, any violation of an intraday support zone of 14,600 levels may cause profit-booking towards 14,500-14,400 levels.
