"The index has hit a new all-time high, steering more positive momentum for upcoming sessions. The price action depicts a move to the 24,000-mark, which should occur once the index stabilizes above 23,200 for two consecutive sessions," said Avdhut Bagkar, Derivatives & Technical Analyst at StoxBox.
"The index must sustain above the upward rising trend line drawn from the peaks of January, March, and April. The underlying bias remains highly optimistic as long as the support at 22,500, its 50-daily moving average (DMA), is defended. The strength oscillator, Relative Strength Index, has yet to enter the overbought category, signaling more scope for upside," added Bagkar.
"NIFTY is likely to trade neutral. NIFTY short-term support is between 22,950-23,000 and resistance is between 23,450-23,500, " said derivatives trader- Santosh Pasi.
