The market traded within the previous day's range and closed lower on March 26, but remained in the broader range of 21,800-22,200 levels since the recent recovery and is likely to trade within same levels, experts said, adding that a breach on either side of this range can give a direction to the Nifty 50 for 21,700 on the lower side and 22,300 on the higher side.
On March 26, the Nifty 50 fell 92 points to 22,005, and the BSE Sensex was down 362 points to 72,470, while the Nifty Midcap 100 and Smallcap 100 indices outperformed the benchmarks, rising 1 percent and 0.4 percent.

Here's what Riyank Arora of Mehta Equities recommends investors should do with these stocks when the market resumes trading today:
The stock has given a good breakout out of its falling wedge pattern on its daily charts. Volume in Tuesday's session was almost twice the average 30 days traded volume of the stock.
With the stock trading well above its important moving averages, an immediate major support is placed at Rs 250 mark, below which the stock would lose its strength.
Positional players are advised to keep a strict stop-loss at Rs 250 mark and aim for upside potential targets of Rs 302 and Rs 305 on the stock as this bullish momentum continues. We advise investors to maintain a hold and a buy-on-dips approach for the stock, with a strict stop-loss.
The stock is approaching a crucial resistance zone of Rs 217-219 on its daily charts. With the volume on the stock being nearly 3 times its average 30 days traded volume, the momentum on the stock looks positive, and the stock looks poised for a good breakout above its crucial mark of Rs 220.
A move above Rs 220 should trigger a fresh upside move towards Rs 240 and Rs 250 in the stock. An immediate support is expected to be placed at Rs 200 mark, below which the stock would lose its strength.
We advise investors to maintain a hold and add aggressively above Rs 220 mark for the stock with a strict stop-loss.
The stock has given a good breakout above its recent anchor VWAP (volume-weighted average price) resistance mark of Rs 3,149 and managed to give a good bullish closing at Rs 3,300 mark.
Going forward, any pullback towards Rs 3,120 - 3,150 zone should offer a good buying opportunity on the stock with a strict stop-loss kept at Rs 2,900 level for potential upside targets of Rs 3,500 and Rs 3,750. We advise investors to maintain a hold and a buy-on-dips approach for the stock with a strict stop-loss.
