The market is expected to see near-term healthy support at 19,600, from where the Nifty50 showed strong rebound on last Friday, and the crucial support is likely at 19,300, the low of the previous week ended October 4, while on the higher side, 19,800-19,850 may act as a critical hurdle. Unless the index decisively takes out this long range, trading is more likely to be within a range, experts said.
