"Technically, Nifty is giving a proper follow-up of bullish hammer candlestick formation formed near psychological support of 17000 and managed to close above its 50-DMA however there are still multiple resistances like 17500/17650 before 17800 level.   On the downside, 17000-16800 is a critical base while 17300 will act as an immediate support level," said Parth Nyati, Founder, Tradingo, in post market commentary.
