Axis Securities highlights this key historical trend
Akshay Chinchalkar, Head of Research at Axis Securities highlights that over the past 20 years, whenever the Nifty closed below the 200-DMA, and was followed by a quick recovery above it - with the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) above 50, the pattern has often led to strong gains in the short-term. An analysis of a similar trend in the last 20 years shows, that the Nifty has generated an average gain of 1.1 per cent, and an overall success rate of 75 per cent in the next five trading sessions, said the analyst in a note. Over a slightly longer period, i.e. 20 trading sessions, the Nifty has delivered an average gain of 5 per cent, with the index climbing higher in 84 per cent cases, the note from Axis Securities added.
Asit C. Mehta Investment Interrmediates pegs upside target on Nifty in 25,500 - 25,800 range
Hrishikesh Yedve, AVP Technical and Derivatives Research at Asit C. Mehta Investment Interrmediates believes that the Nifty could test 25,200 in the short term, and 25,500 – 25,800 in the medium term; as long as the index sustains above 24,850 levels. The analyst recommends traders to consider a buy-on-dips strategy as long as the Nifty holds above 24,850 on a closing basis.
SAMCO Securities recommends buy on dips strategy
The NSE Nifty broke out above a rising trendline connecting a series of higher swing tops, reaffirming the resumption of its broader uptrend, said Om Mehra, Technical Research Analyst at SAMCO Securities in a note. The Nifty has reclaimed levels above the 9-day EMA, and the daily RSI has turned upward after remaining range bound, indicating renewed bullish momentum. Based on Fibonacci clustering, resistance remains near the 25,200 mark, while support has shifted higher to around 24,600, the analyst explained. The Nifty has given a strong breakout, out of its recent consolidation, and the broader trend has turned decisively positive. A 'buy-on-dips' strategy may be preferred for the upcoming sessions, the note added.

No major economic impact of Iran-Israel conflict, but vigil up: India official

AP A man walks at the scene of an explosion in a residence compound in northern Tehran, Iran. The ongoing Israel-Iran conflict is unlikely to have any major economic impact on India unless it escalates into a broader and protracted regional conflagration but the government is keeping a close watch on the evolving situation, a senior official said. The conflict, however, could potentially stoke volatility in global crude oil prices, capital flows, currency movement and shipping costs in the short term, the official conceded. While it's "too early" to gauge the precise impact on India, the finance ministry and regulators would continue to maintain heightened vigil in view of the volatility across markets, the official told given its strong macroeconomic fundamentals, India is on a strong footing to tide over any such global crisis without much bruise, he said. He also ruled out any sharp and durable impact of the crisis on non-energy commodity prices globally over the medium term. Indian stocks fell on Friday tracking a global sell-off and the rupee depreciated against the dollar as worries about the Israel-Iran conflict weighed down investor benchmark Sensex and Nifty nosedived 0.7% each on Friday.

The prices, however, pulled back to less than $75 a barrel after reports emerged that Israel had not targeted Iran's oil infrastructure but limited its strike to Tehran's nuclear facilities. The Israeli strikes have raised fears if Iran could retaliate by trying to close the Strait of Hormuz, a vital choke point for about a fifth of the global oil supply. In that case, shipping and related insurance costs could rise US gold futures inched up more than 1% to touch its peak in nearly two months amid heightened demand for haven assets.
