The market fell sharply on December 5 after the Reserve Bank of India kept policy rates unchanged and slashed inflation forecast for second half of FY19. The correction was largely in line with the global weakness and continued for second straight session on caution ahead of states elections results due next week.
The Nifty50 closed 86.60 points lower at 10,782.90 and managed to hold the 200-daily moving average, which is placed around 10,747 levels.
Experts said if the index breaks its 200-DMA then there could be steep correction in the market, but if it holds till states elections results then there could be possibility of index hitting 11,000 levels.
The 30-share BSE Sensex was down 249.90 points at 35,884.41 due to selling across sectors barring IT which ended flat. The broader markets also caught in bear trap with Nifty Midcap index underperforming frontliners, falling 1.5 percent.
India VIX moved up by 1 percent to 18.29 levels. However it has to cool down below 17-16 zones to get the smooth ride to surpass immediate hurdle zones.
According to Pivot charts, the key support level is placed at 10,746.93, followed by 10,710.97. If the index starts moving upward, key resistance levels to watch out are 10,819.93 and then 10,856.97.
The Nifty Bank index closed at 26,519.60, down 174.20 points. The important Pivot level, which will act as crucial support for the index, is placed at 26,433.1, followed by 26,346.6. On the upside, key resistance levels are placed at 26,616.7, followed by 26,713.8.
