Despite significant volatility in the stock market, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) benchmark - the Nifty 50 index has gained 3 per cent thus far in the month of May, and is seen quoting back above 25,000-mark after a gap of seven months.  The Nifty 50 has surged 15.5 per cent from its April 7 low of 21,744; and in the process is seen trading above the key moving averages across time-frames. Technically, an index or stock quoting above all moving averages is considered to be trading with a favourable bias.  Just three weeks ago, the Nifty had given a fresh breakout on the weekly chart, and has since gained over 5 per cent. The NSE benchmark is roughly 4.9 per cent away from its life-time peak of 26,277.   Catch Stock Market LIVE Updates Today  Given the renewed optimism in the market on the back of hopes of a favourable US-India trade deal, good monsoon, and easing geopolitical situation, can the Nifty pick-up speed and rally all the way to 30,000-mark by the year-end?  Here's what the technical charts suggests: 

Nifty

  Current Level: 25,062  Upside Potential: 14.9%  Support: 24,770; 24,315; 24,050; 23,770  Resistance: 25,900; 25,650; 25,680; 27,650  In the very near-term, the Nifty may look to build-up on the upside momentum as long as the index quotes above 25,000-mark. On the upside, the index seems on course to test its key medium-term resistance at 25,900 levels. Interim hurdles are placed at 25,268 and 25,333 levels.    Technical chart suggests that break and consistent trade above 25,900 levels, can open the doors for a likely rally to new life-time highs, targeting 26,500 - 26,800 levels in the short-to-medium term.  ALSO READ | Coforge, Vesuvius stocks to turn ex-split in June; how to trade?

Technical chart for now does not show the possibility of the index hitting the next landmark at 30,000 by this year-end.  Meanwhile, the key short-term support for the Nifty stands at 24,770 levels. Below which, the Nifty can potentially seek support around its 20-Day Moving Average (20-DMA), which stands at 24,315 or the 200-DMA at 24,050 levels. The trend line support for the index stands at 23,770. CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART
