Stocks advanced in Asia on Wednesday after a wobbly day on Wall Street as investors focused on optimism that more imminent U.S. stimulus will energise the global economic recovery. European stocks extended the week’s gains on Wednesday morning, with cyclical sectors leading the advance as the focus turned away from rising bond yields and toward an economic reopening.
 
Activity in India’s dominant services sector expanded at its quickest pace in a year in February, helped by an increase in new orders and optimism generated by a roll-out of vaccines to fight the pandemic. The IHS Markit Services Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) rose to 55.3 last month from 52.8 in January. The IHS Markit India Composite Index to a four-month high of 57.3 in February.
 
In a bullish signal, the Nifty has on March 03 filled the downgap made on Feb 26, though it took longer for the gap to be filled. Now the all time high of the Nifty is in sight being barely 186 points away. With momentum on its side, there may not be too many impediments in Nifty achieving this over the next few days. 
 
The sharp up trended movement continued in the market for the third consecutive sessions on Wednesday and Nifty closed the day with hefty gains of around 326 points. After opening on an upside gap of 144 points, Nifty shifted into a continuous upmove for the whole session.
 
A long bull candle was formed on the daily chart and the Nifty has overtaken the key resistance area of previous opening down/up gap at 15065 levels and the recent swing high of 15176-25th Feb. This is a positive indication and the recent negative pattern seems to have nullified and one may expect further upside in the short term.
 
The medium term uptrend in Nifty as per weekly timeframe chart is intact and we observe a formation of larger degree of higher tops and bottoms over the last many months. According to this action, one may expect further upside towards the new highs soon.
 
Conclusion: The short term trend of Nifty continues to be up. The negation of recent bearish patterns could indicate more upside in the short term. The next upside levels to be watched around 15430 in the next 2-3 sessions. Immediate support is placed at 15160.
