ANIL SINGHVI MARKET STRATEGY

The market will offer trading opportunities on both sides amid easing pressure on account of weakness in global markets and foreign fund outflows, said Singhvi, who suggests trimming long positions if the Nifty and the Nifty Bank close below 19,300 and 43,600 levels respectively.

It is important for the Nifty and the Nifty bank to close above 19,550 and 44,200 respectively for weakness in the market to stop, he said.
