Traders should not hurry in creating long at the current juncture as long as Nifty trades below its 200-DEMA. A close above 10,200 could signal some short-term strength in the index.
The Nifty which opened at 10,215 rose to an intraday high of 10,224 before bears took control of D-Street. The index hit an intraday low of 10,075 before closing the day at 10,094, down 100.90 points or 0.99 percent.
Mohammad further added that 10040 – 9980 appears to be a critical support point for Nifty50 from where a bounce can be expected. For any reason, if indices close below the psychologically important mark of 10,000 then traders should look for bigger targets of 9700 on the downside.
Meanwhile, a close above 10200 levels may suggest some short-term strength to the indices.
