Outlook for September 17

Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities

Nifty has given a double bottom breakout on the daily timeframe, indicating rising optimism. The index has been sustaining above the 21EMA, confirming a continuation of the uptrend.

Additionally, the RSI has moved above its previous swing high, further supporting bullish momentum.

In the short term, the trend is likely to remain strong, with potential upside towards 25,500 and beyond. On the downside, support is placed at 25,000, and a break below this level could signal the end of the current rally.

Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities

The range bound action of the last few sessions has eventually resulted in a sharp upside breakout on Tuesday and Nifty closed the day higher by 169 points. After opening with a positive note, the market continued with upside momentum for better part of the session. The upside got strengthened towards the end and Nifty closed at the highs.

A long bull candle was formed on the daily chart which indicates a sharp upside breakout of the hurdle of previous swing high of 21st Aug at 25150 levels and Nifty closed higher. This is positive indication and signal bulls are back into the scene after an upmove with choppy movement in the last 6-7 sessions.

The short-term trend of Nifty continues to be positive. Having surpassed the key hurdle at 25150, Nifty could advance towards the next resistance of 25400-25500 levels in the near term. Immediate support is placed at 25100 levels.
