By a staff reporter:
Last Friday Nifty opened at 17531.90 with a deep Gap down mode. After almost 50 points Gap down. Nifty initially printed low upto 17450/60 range but in 2nd half after 100 points recovery from days low closing was 17532 just below crucial 20Days simple moving average 17545.- trend deciding level.
As opening & closing almost same so, Nifty formed a small Doji kind of pattern on the daily charts indicating indecisiveness among the bulls and the bears, but as Closing was fractionally greater than opening so candle color green & small Hammer type which resembles chances of pull back or reversal in coming sessions but for that confirmation is required.
Nifty closed with around -0.50% or -86 points loss on October 1, the first day of October series, as the selling pressure was seen in banking & financials and technology stocks.
