Index trend and stocks in action January 30, 2018

Nifty opened the session with a positive bias and extended its upmove. Nifty registered its all-time high level of 11,171.55. But, at the higher levels, market participants booked profit and, as a result, the gains were limited and Nifty settled at 11,130. The price action led to formation of a bull candle with a wick on the upper side, indicating profit-booking at the higher levels. Going ahead, Nifty has crucial support placed in the region of 11,090-11,100 and any move towards this support zone could be used as an incremental buying opportunity. On the upside, the levels of 11,175, followed by 11,200, are the resistance points for the Nifty. The momentum oscillators on the daily chart have entered the overbought zone and Nifty may consolidate in the coming session before proceeding on its next leg of upmove.
