Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view
Stock Market LIVE Updates: "The Bulls regained control after a brief pause in the previous sessions. As anticipated, Nifty extended its momentum and crossed the 25,200 mark, driven by short covering. The overall structure remains positive with a 'buy on dips' approach, and we expect Nifty to move towards 25,500 in the near term. The base has been consistently shifting higher, with immediate support now placed at 25,050. Furthermore, momentum indicators and oscillators on the daily charts remain firmly in buy mode, reinforcing prospects of continued short-term strength."
