Gaurav Ratnaparkhi, Head of Technical Research, Sharekhan by BNP Paribas said, “The Nifty is witnessing a bounce from the key psychological mark of 18000. Over there, the 20 DMA & the hourly lower Bollinger Band offered support to the index. These parameters induced bulls into the action.”

He added, “The hourly momentum indicator is in sync with the pullback. Hence the bounce is expected to continue further. So far it has retraced 50 per cent of the recent fall.”

“Going ahead, the Nifty can stretch towards the 61.8 and 78.6 per cent retracement i.e. 18360 & 18460 respectively. The overall structure however shows that this is only a bounce & is unlikely to be a start of a fresh rally. The short term consolidation to continue further,” Ratnaparkhi pointed out.
