5671 levels and it was close to 38.2% retracement of the entire rise between 4770 and 6110 that was at 5600. Due to
quick and extended sell off we are of the view that the market is in strong pull back mode and might arrest between 5970/

If nifty fails between 5970 and 6030 then one more dip towards 5850/5810 is not ruled out. However, an important aspect
to keep in mind is that if it continuously fails at 6000 levels and forms reversal pattern then it will be a completion of the
pull back and might start one more down move that could be more serious.
In brief, between 5970 and 6030 traders have to be cautious at least for adding long positions as the rally is mainly driven
for selling short if it reverses sharply or forms reversal pattern on daily charts. With a tight stop loss at 6035 on the higher
side. If it sustains above 6035 then one can look for select buying with a medium term view.

Bank Nifty: Sell at 12240 and at 12280 with a stop loss at 12310 for the target 12170/12100. Buying is advisable only
