Commenting on the outlook for Nifty, Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities mentioned, “The short-term trend of Nifty remains positive with range bound action. Any decisive upside breakout of 17,000 levels is likely to pull Nifty towards 17500 levels in a quick period of time. However, an inability of bulls to sustain above 16,800 levels could trigger another round of downward correction to 16,300 levels in the near term.”
