After giving a breakout from the consolidation zone, Nifty extended its gain and managed to close above 9,800 mark last week.

The index gave range breakout and moved almost 500 points in two days with a gap-up move. Weekly Heikin Ashi candlestick pattern is flat bottom with a big body candle.

Nifty has given a breakout of Cup and Handle classical technical pattern which is having a neckline around 9,200-9,300 levels and the target as per pattern is 10,500 mark. Also, recently formed ABCD harmonic pattern's D leg can extend towards 161.8 percent of AB projecting bullish price action towards 10,250 levels. So under normal circumstances, the target for the recent rally is 10,250-10,500.

In the very near term, after the recent sharp rally, some consolidation or small retracement as mean reversion is highly probable. On the downside, all-important support is at 9,200. Only a decisive close below the crucial support of 9,200 will be an early sign of trend reversal.
