The market traded higher after recovery in late morning deals amid volatility and finally settled with moderate gains on July 23, supported by banking & financials, FMCG and IT stocks.
The BSE Sensex rose 138.59 points to 52,975.80, while the Nifty50 gained 32 points to close at 15,856 and formed Doji Cross kind of pattern on the daily charts as the closing was near its opening levels. During the week, the index fell 0.4 percent but formed bullish candle on the weekly scale as the closing was higher than opening levels.
"This daily charts pattern indicate confusion state of mind among participants and one may expect consolidation movement or minor downward correction in the next session," Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities told Moneycontrol.
He said the crucial resistance area of previous opening downside gap of July 19 has been filled completely, but the upper gap area of 15,900 has acted as a hurdle and has resulted in minor intraday weakness from the highs. "A sustainable move above 15,900 could only open further upside for the short term," he added.
He feels the short term uptrend of Nifty remains intact.
"There is a possibility of further consolidation or minor downward correction from the highs in early next week. Any weakness could find support at 15,750 levels," he said.
The broader markets ended mixed as the Nifty Midcap 100 index was up 0.17 percent and Smallcap 100 index fell 0.46 percent.
