    Stock Market Highlights: Nifty daily chart indicates indecisiveness at current juncture. What’s in store for D-Street
    Nifty on Tuesday ended 34 points higher to form a Doji candle on the daily chart which indicates indecisiveness prevailing in the marketplace at the current juncture as it coincides with a critical resistance level of 61.8% retracement and a bearish gap.


    Going ahead, 22,500 level remains a significant resistance on the monthly expiry day, but a sustained trade above 22500-22550 could trigger further upward movement, potentially driven by contract adjustments. Conversely, immediate support levels are identified at 22300-22250, with a pivotal support zone around the bullish gap of 22200-22180, said Rajesh Bhosale, Technical Analyst, Angel One.

    Indian markets lagged the Asian peers as Q4 earnings remained largely subdued with weak results from IT and a few index heavyweights results also disappointed. However, buoyed by strong manufacturing and service sectors, the Indian composite PMI hit a multi-year high, reflecting domestic resilience bringing some buoyancy in the broad market. Globally, investor sentiment improved with easing tensions in the Middle East and declining oil prices.

    Sensex Today | Stock Market View: Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services

    The ability of bull markets to climb all walls of worries is being demonstrated by the ongoing bull market, which has shrugged off all headwinds, be it geopolitical or economic. The Middle East tensions had only a temporary impact on the market. The scaling down of rate cuts by the Fed from six at the beginning of this year to three or perhaps two or even lower also has not impacted the bull run. And, the indication from the sharp decline in the volatility index VIX by around 20% to 10.2 is that the downside risk to the market is low.

    So it makes sense to remain invested in this market and to continue investing by buying the dips.

    Sensex Today | Stock Market View: Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities

    Overnight surge in US markets and subsequent gains in Asian equities are pointing towards a firm opening for both Sensex & Nifty. A fall in global crude oil prices towards $83 a barrel raises hopes of easing tensions in the Middle East. Investors are also hoping for easing of geopolitical tensions, and are also expecting for the continuation of the current regime in the general elections, which has helped markets reverse the falling trend over the past few sessions. This is despite FII selling and also uninspiring Q4 results from Reliance and frontline technology companies. The technical landscape suggests Nifty’s major support at 22200 mark, with interweek support at 22000 and then at 21710 mark.
