According to Technical Analyst, Prakash Gaba of prakashgaba.com, technically the Nifty is in a sideways mode and is not yielding as yet and so 9630 and 9580 are still strong supports to deal with. The Nifty unfolded as expected taking care to take support at 9600 to close in the green. Technically the trend is still intact and has not been compromised though it is stretched and so un-stretching is not ruled out. He feels that and the crucial support to watch still is 9580 and the resistance is at 9724.
