Nifty continued to rally on September 11 for the fifth consecutive session, its longest streak in almost 6 months, supported by positive global cues on the back of easing US-China tensions.
Hopes of further stimulus by the government and GST rate cut on auto also gave a leg up to investor sentiment.
After opening higher, the index remained rangebound with a positive bias throughout the session, eventually closing with a gain of 33 points, or 0.30 percent, at 11,035.70, with 25 stocks up and 25 down.
The index maintained the psychological 11,000 level and saw a lot of resistance in the range of 11,050-11,100 levels, forming small-bodied bullish candle which resembles a Doji kind of pattern on daily charts.
The formation of a Doji candle after a bullish candle indicates there is some indecisiveness among the bulls as well as the bears.
"Even though Nifty50 closed in a positive terrain trading range remained extremely narrow with 44 points but on the back of stronger positive advance/decline ratio as 2 stocks rallied for every single stock declined. However, this narrow range should be a cause for concern as Nifty failed to sustain above its resistance point of 11,042 levels on a closing basis," Mazhar Mohammad, Chief Strategist – Technical Research & Trading Advisory, Chartviewindia.in, told Moneycontrol.
"Technically, with the Nifty rallying further and taking out its recent highs, the bulls do seem to have an upper hand for the short term at least. Further upsides are likely in the near term once the immediate resistance of 11,055 is taken out. Crucial supports to watch for resumption of weakness are at 11,012-10,957," said Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research, HDFC securities.
Bank Nifty has been forming higher highs – higher lows from last four trading sessions and supports are shifting higher. The index closed 1 percent higher at 27,776.20 and formed a bullish candle on the daily scale.
India VIX fell by 3.01 percent to 15.37 levels. It has been making lower highs – lower lows from the last four sessions and recently corrected from 18.31 to 15 zones which is giving some stability to the market.
