Top buy and sell ideas by Ashwani Gujral, Sudarshan Sukhani, Mitesh Thakkar for short term

The BSE Sensex rallied 413.45 points or 1.01 percent to 41,352.17. The Nifty 50 climbed 111 points or 0.92 percent to 12,165, taking the total gains to 333 points since last Wednesday, forming a bullish candle on the daily charts.

As the momentum is positive, the index is expected to march further and cross 12,200 levels in the coming sessions, experts feel.

The broader markets also gained momentum but underperformed the frontliners. The Nifty Midcap index was up 0.6 percent and Smallcap index gained 0.75 percent amid positive market breadth. About three shares advanced for every share falling on the NSE.

According to the pivot charts, the key support level for Nifty is placed at 12,095.93, followed by 12,026.87. If the index moves up, key resistance levels to watch out for are 12,208.43 and 12,251.87.

Nifty Bank closed 0.52 percent higher at 32,140.25. The important pivot level, which will act as crucial support for the index, is placed at 32,013.9, followed by 31,887.6. On the upside, key resistance levels are placed at 32,239.9 and 32,339.6.
