Here are today’s top gainers on the Nifty
Nifty formed a Dark Cloud Cover pattern on the daily timeframe, raising the possibility of a bearish move in the coming days. However, the broader trend remains positive as the index continues to trade within a rising channel. Today, the index found support just above the 50 EMA.
Overall, range-bound trading continues, with sellers emerging at higher levels, said Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities. The RSI has once again entered a bearish crossover.
“A fall below 24,130 could trigger a serious correction, potentially dragging Nifty towards 23,900 and 23,700. On the higher end, a rock-solid resistance is placed at 24,350. Only a sustained move above 24,350 could change the current perception; until then, choppiness is likely to prevail," De said.
