Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities:
Nifty started lower following a weak global cue and remained sideways during the day. On the lower end, it slipped towards the previous swing high (18100).
The trend looks a bit weak with a rounding top formation on the daily timeframe. The bearish crossover in RSI with a negative divergence suggests weak momentum.
Going forward, 18,100 may provide immediate support below which the index may drift down towards 17,750. On the higher end, resistance is visible at 18,200/18,450.
