About 1,176 shares advanced, while 1,168 shares declined on the NSE. The Nifty 50 closed above 24,400 for the first time. If it climbs and sustains above 24,500, then a further rally towards 24,800-25,000 seems likely, while the support is placed at 24,300. Here are some trading ideas for the near term:

JBM Auto | CMP: Rs 2,286.7
JBM Auto showed decent buying in the previous session. On the chart, the 30-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) has successfully supported rallies in the past, with dips towards this average acting as great buying opportunities as major lows have formed at this average. Prices recently bounced back on the upside by taking support from the upward sloping channel. It is gradually moving up towards the previous swing high near Rs 2,428 levels. In short, the trend for JBM Auto is positive. A break above Rs 2,340 can lift the price higher towards Rs 2,428 followed by Rs 2,520, as long as Rs 2,087 holds on the downside.
Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 2,428, Rs 2,520
Stop-Loss: Rs 2,087
Phoenix Mills | CMP: Rs 4,025.65
In the previous session, Phoenix Mills closed with a huge gain of more than 7 percent. There has been a minor consolidation of 20 days, and in the previous session, prices have given a breakout.
