Index trend and stocks in action on February 26, 2020
Nifty opened on a positive note on Tuesday; however, it could not build upon early gains. Throughout the day, there was a tough battle between the bulls and bears but at the end, it closed in negative territory and declined for the third straight session. Nifty ended below 11,800 mark, down by 0.27 per cent.
The price actions have formed yet another bearish candle with lower-high and lower low, in comparison to the previous trading session. Going ahead, the zone of 11,749-11,783 is an important support zone as 78.6 per cent retracement of rise after the Budget is placed in this zone as well as February 4 gap area is also in this zone. Hence, this support zone is an important level to watch out for the bulls. On the upside, the zone of 11,900-11,930 is likely to act as a stiff resistance and until this resistance is cleared convincingly on the upside, it is likely to be a sell on the rally market. This is due to the reason that Nifty trades below its short-term 20-DMA and 50-DMA and also, 100-DMA. Further, 20-DMA and 50-DMA is in declining mode, indicating that the trend is down.
Overall, the structure is weak for the short-term and rallies are likely to be sold until the resistance zone of 11,900-11,930 is not crossed.
