The hourly momentum indicator triggered a positive crossover and is also showing divergence indicating that the momentum on the downside is weakening and the index is likely to start a fresh leg of up move in the next few trading sessions.Rohan Patil, Technical Analyst, SAMCO Securities
On the 2-hour chart, the triangle pattern is visible in the range of 18,150 – 17,750. In today’s session index showed a decent reversal from the lower band of the triangle pattern and promisingly defended the intraday low. Presently, Nifty50 is stuck in a no-trading zone and a break on either side of the range from 18,150 – 17,750 levels will decide the next trading setup.

Markets will react to the IT majors viz

and numbers in early trades on Friday. Besides, the reaction of the global markets to the US inflation will also be on the radar. On the benchmark front, we feel the prevailing tussle around 17,800 in Nifty will end soon. Meanwhile, the focus should be on sector/stock-specific opportunities, while keeping a check on position size.
