The Nifty ended the session on February 26 down 91 points at 22,122. Volumes on the NSE dipped a bit from the previous three sessions. Declining shares outnumbered their advancing peers as advance-decline ratio stood at 0.76 on the BSE.
The Nifty closed below its five-day moving average (DMA). In the derivatives, we have seen aggressive Call writing at 22,200-22,300 levels. Moreover, multiple tops have been formed around 22,200-22,300 levels during last few days suggesting on an upside of 22,200-22,300 levels would act as a very strong resistance. Therefore, traders are advised to remain cautious till the Nifty closes above 22,300.
On the downside, recent swing low of 21,875 to act as an immediate support. Any close below 21,875 would result into a bearish trend reversal which could drag the Nifty towards the next support of 21,400-21,500 levels.
After outperforming for a long period of time, midcap and smallcap indices have caught up in the narrow consolidation, where momentum is clearly lacking. However, primary trend remains strong and any sharp correction is a buying opportunity, we believe. Therefore, for traders our advice is to focus on midcap/smallcap space for short term trading gains.
