After opening on a shaky note, the Nifty fell to make a low of 5832.70 and then it rose to make an intra-day high of 5924.35 yesterday. At the end of day Nifty closed at 5913.15. It had a net gain of 216.35 points or 0.28% over the previous day's close. On the sectoral front, some buying interest was witnessed in Metal, Realty, Banking and Capital goods stocks. However, FMCG, IT and Power stocks traded lower.
After making a low of 5118.05 on 28th August, the Nifty has given a smart pullback rally of almost 15 percent in a time span of just ten trading sessions. Yesterday the bulls were able to manage Nifty above its crucial resistance of 5850. So we expect this rally to continue to 6080. However, a breach of 5770 is likely to take Nifty lower to 5600 in the extreme short term.
On an intra-day basis Nifty has a support at 5840 and is likely to face a stiff resistance near 5920. If Nifty breaks 5840, it may further go down to 5810 and then 5770. However, if it is able to sustain above 5920, the level of 5980 - 6020 would become the next target.
