Though the US markets closed in the green, you can see that Dow Jones had broken the day-low in the second half. The up-move was contributed by the IT stocks mainly.
See how Reliance reversed in the second half yesterday. Keep an eye on Previous-day-low.
HDFC merger will get completed today and there will be volatility because of inflows and outflows.
HCL Tech and TCS have announced their results as mentioned above. See how the stocks perform keeping positivity in the global IT stocks in mind.
There are strong resistances and supports in the market. OI says there are strong resistances rather than supports and this means there could be proper short covering in case there is a good up-move.
I will watch 19,360 on the downside in NIFTY. 19,500 can be watched on the upside.
