Stock Market Highlights LIVE Updates: Nifty50 to breakout on the upside and rally towards 25,350 – 25,500

Nifty opened marginally in the red and consolidated within a narrow range to close in the red down 24 points. The Nifty has been consolidating in the range of 25250 – 24900 since the last three trading sessions. We expect this consolidation to breakout on the upside and rally towards 25350 – 25500 from short term perspective. A breach below 24800 shall weaken the structure and hence should be kept as a stoploss for the long positions.
