“Markets maintained the upward momentum through the trading session on positive cues from Asian and European indices. IT stocks emerged as the star performers after getting hammered in recent sessions on worries global IT spending may moderate this year due to likely slowdown in key economies. If the optimism continues, we may see some pre-budget rally in the truncated week. On the technical front, despite the strong momentum it as failed to clear 18180/61200 resistance mark. Currently, the index is trading above 20 day SMA and also holding higher bottom formation on intraday charts which is largely positive. For the traders now, 18000/60500 would be the trend decider level above which, the index could move up to 18200-18250/61200-61500. On the flip side, below 18000/60500 selling pressure is likely to increase. Below the same, the index could slip till 17950-17900/60200-60000,” said Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research (Retail), Kotak Securities Ltd
