The NSE benchmark Nifty moved in a capped range and ended the session with marginal gain of 0.17 per cent at 11,571. The price action formed a Doji-like candle pattern. On Thursday, we expect the index to witness a stable opening and see some consolidation. On the upside, the levels of 11,600, followed by 11,640, are likely to act as immediate hurdles for the index. On the way down, the opening upside gap area, which is placed in the region of 11,486-11,500, is likely to lend support to the index. Also, the 5-day EMA is placed around the level of 11,500.
