09:14 (IST) 29 Sep 2022 Nifty can see upward momentum only if it crosses 17327 hurdle
“Markets are likely to see a firm opening on Thursday, tracking a recovery in other Asian indices after US gauges staged a smart recovery in the overnight trades. The key positive catalyst is yields in the US and Europe retreated after the Bank of England’s announcement that it will carry out temporary purchases of long-dated UK government bonds in order to restore orderly market conditions offered investors some support. However, caution will still prevail and intra-day choppy trend is not ruled out due to global uncertainty over persisting increase in interest rates, rising inflation and geo-politicial tensions. On the technical front, Nifty can see upward momentum only if it crosses the hurdle of 17327 mark.”

India’s depleted foreign exchange reserves are likely to drop further, falling to their lowest level in over two years by end-2022, as the Reserve Bank of India continues to defend the rupee from the mighty dollar’s rise, a Reuters poll found.

07:52 (IST) 29 Sep 2022 Buy in index heavyweight stocks if Nifty falls to 16700 levels
“Markets remained choppy with a sharply downward bias, as investors exited banking and metal stocks ahead of the monthly F&O expiry with the likely rate hike by the RBI & other central banks indicating that bearish sentiment could continue going ahead. Technically, we are of the view that 17000 would act as an immediate resistance level. Below which, the correction wave is likely to continue till 16700-16650. On the flip side, a short recovery rally is possible only after the dismissal of 17000. Above the same the index could move up to 17100-17200. The Nifty is having major support between 16700-16650 (which is important retracement support level). Buying is advisable in index heavyweight stocks if Nifty falls to 16700 levels,”
