Trade view for Nifty

“The short term trend of Nifty remains choppy and the attempt of upside bounce from the support is lacking its strength. A sustainable move only above 18300-18350 is likely to open further upside for the market ahead. Further weakness from here could find the next lower support at 18K levels," said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities.

The broad market indices like midcap and small cap segments of NSE have displayed resilience during volatile bench mark index on Wednesday and closed on a minor gains, which as per Shetti, could be a minor positive indication.
