    On May 3, 2024, the Nifty formed triple top resistance near 22,800 and reversed south. On the week ended May 3, Nifty formed long “Doji” candlestick pattern on weekly chart, which indicates the indecision of a trend for the short term. Therefore, recent swing high of 22,800 becomes strong hurdle for the Nifty, and unless that is taken out, aggressive longs should be avoided.

    On the downside, supports for the Nifty are seen at 22,286 and 22,166, which happens to be 50 percent and 61.8 percent Fibonacci retracement levels of the entire rally seen from 21,777 (bottom of April 19, 2024) to 22,794 (all-time high registered on May 3).

    At 48,677, BankNifty retraced 38.2 percent of the entire rally seen from 46,579 to 49,974. Supports for the BankNifty are seen at 48,276 and 47,876. Positional bullish trend of BankNifty is Intact as it has been forming higher tops and higher bottoms on weekly line chart.

    The Nifty Smallcap 100 and Microcap 250 indices have violated the crucial supports of upward sloping trendline, adjoining previous swing lows on the daily chart.

    Considering the technical evidence, we see benchmark indices like Nifty and BankNifty oscillating in the range. For Nifty, the range should be 22,200-22,800, while in BankNifty, range should remain 48,300-49,500 for next couple of weeks. However, looking at the close of Smallcap and microcap indices, traders should remain cautious in those segments.

    Here are three buy calls for short term:

    Oil India: Buy | LTP: Rs 633 | Stop-Loss: Rs 590 | Target: Rs 725 | Return: 14.5 percent
