Trade setup for today: Top 15 things to know before the opening bell - Moneycontrol

The market had a robust opening for the week as the benchmark indices rallied more than 2 percent and reclaimed key psychological levels (60,000 on the Sensex and 18,000 on the Nifty) on April 4, following the HDFC-HDFC Bank merger announcement, and positive global cues. Every sector participated in the run up with Banking and Financial Services being the top gainers with 4 percent gains.

The BSE Sensex surged 1,335 points to 60,612, while the Nifty50 jumped 383 points to 18,053 and formed bullish candle on the daily charts, hinting positive mood at Dalal Street.

"The index is moving in a higher Top and Higher Bottom formation on the daily chart, indicating a sustained uptrend. The chart pattern suggests that if the Nifty crosses and sustains above the 18,100 level, it would witness buying which would lead the index towards 18,350 levels," said Rajesh Palviya, VP - Technical and Derivative Research at Axis Securities.

However, he feels if the index breaks below 18,000 level it would witness selling, which would take the index towards 17,900-17,800.

Nifty is trading above its 20 days simple moving average, which indicates positive bias in the short term. "Nifty continues to remain in an uptrend for the short term, so buying on dips continues to be our preferred strategy," said Rajesh.

The Nifty Midcap and Smallcap indices also joined the rally, rising 1.6 percent each.
