Nifty formed an engulfing pattern on daily charts which is bearish for the near term. 15840-15900 remains a tough resistance to breach as has been seen over the past 7 odd sessions. On falls so far 15675 has provided support; but now the figure could shift to 15451-15560. Low volumes continue to suggest low trading interest due to low volatility in largecap and midcap space. This is despite individual stocks showing momentum on successive days.
