Independent Technical Analyst Manish Shah said that the index has moved above its 20-week SMA and MACD has moved above its trigger line.
“This is a major buy signal on the weekly charts. On the daily chart, a slow stuttering rally in the last two days. The index is around its resistance zone of 16,800-16,850. Some sideways movement or a corrective decline is on the horizon. Support for the index is seen at 16,500. Any declines in Nifty will take a halt in the 16,500-16,550 range. If the index holds and moves above 16,600, there should be more upside to 16,700-16,750 going into the last week of July Expiry,” Shah said.
The index closed the week at 16,719.45 on Friday, rising 114.20 points or 0.69 per cent for the day.
During the week, Nifty50 successfully cleared the short-term resistance of 16,300 and also cleared the 100-day SMA, said Amol Athawale, Deputy VP for technicals at Kotak Securities.
“For traders, 16,800 and 169,50 would act as an immediate resistance zone while 16,500-16,350 could be the key support levels,” Athawale said.
