The pivot point calculator suggests that the Nifty may get support at 18,891, followed by 18,856 and 18,798.

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.
