It was a historic day for the market as the Nifty50 touched a new milestone of 19,000 mark on June 28, the monthly F&O expiry day. We have seen every sector participate in the rally, while the broader markets continued the uptrend for the third straight session along with benchmarks.
The BSE Sensex hit the 64,000 mark for the first time intraday, rising 499 points to 63,915, while the Nifty50 jumped 155 points to end at a record closing high of 18,972 and formed a bullish candlestick pattern on the daily timeframe.
"This rally was backed by a consolidation breakout observed on the daily chart, indicating a strong upward movement. Additionally, the Nifty index has successfully invalidated a Dark Cloud cover pattern on the weekly chart. It's worth noting that failed patterns often result in more significant price movements than the initial pattern itself," Rupak De, Senior Technical analyst at LKP Securities said.
In the short term, he believes that the overall trend for the Nifty index is expected to remain positive as long as it stays above the support level of 18,700. This level is significant because Put writers, who provide downside protection, are actively positioned there to prevent a substantial decline in the index, he said.
He sees the immediate resistance for the Nifty index at 19,000. If the Nifty convincingly breaks above this level, it may induce an upward movement towards 19,450, he says.
The Nifty Midcap 100 index rose six-tenth of a percent and the Nifty Smallcap 100 index gained a third of a percent.

Key support, resistance levels on Nifty
The pivot point calculator suggests that the Nifty may get support at 18,891, followed by 18,856 and 18,798, whereas in the case of an upside, 19,005 can be a key resistance area for the index, followed by 19,041 and 19,098.
The Bank Nifty also extended its upward journey and hit a fresh record high of 44,508, rising 206 points to close at 44,328. The index has formed a bearish candlestick pattern on the daily scale, but on the weekly charts, there was a long bullish candlestick pattern formation.
"The previous resistance level of 44,000 has now transformed into a strong support level, providing a cushion for the bulls," Kunal Shah, Senior Technical & Derivative analyst at LKP Securities said.
On the upside, he believes that the immediate hurdle is now at 44,500, where Call writing is visible. Once this level is surpassed, it is likely to lead to further upside towards the 45,000 mark, he said.
The pivot point calculator indicated that the Bank Nifty is likely to take support at 44,201, followed by 44,120 and 43,988, whereas 44,465 can be the initial resistance zone for the index, followed by 44,546 and 44,678.
