Benchmark indices are trading in a narrow range with negative bias. The Nifty index is trading close to its 200 DMA after breaching it intraday in the previous session.
The broader markets are, however, out-performing the benchmark indices. The BSE Mid-cap index has gained 0.26% or 6,298 and the small-cap index has surged 0.83% at 6,298 levels.
Check out the trading strategies in Bank Nifty, ITC shares, stocks to buy/sell and views on Midcap segment with Devangshu Datta, Technical Analyst.
Devangshu Datta: Support at these levels of 5950 approx is being repeatedly tested. Impossible to predict if it will break or hold. A good trader should be prepared for both eventualities.
Devangshu Datta: For the moment keep a stop loss at 6050 if you short and at 5935 if you are long (both futures prices) and wait and see where the index goes.
SmartInvestor: What is your advice for investors to trade in Bank Nifty?
Devangshu Datta: The Bank Nifty looks quite negative; I think it will test 9900-9950 support again.
SmartInvestor: Midcaps have been on roll for some time. Can they continue to outperform the benchmark indices in the near future?
