As Nifty managed to end above the crucial hurdle of 15,800 on Monday, here is what experts make of the current trends in the market.

Nifty remained volatile before closing above the crucial resistance of 15800. The index moved above the very short-term moving average indicating rising bullishness. The daily RSI is in the bullish crossover. Over the short term, the index may move towards 16000/16200. On the lower end, support is visible at 15700/15500.

Post a negative start on July 4, the Nifty witnessed a brief consolidation in the range of 15650-15800. Towards the end of the session, the bulls managed to cross the hurdle of 15800. The hourly chart shows that the index is trading near a falling trendline beyond which the upside momentum will pick up further. Structurally, the Nifty is inching towards 15900-16000 on the upside. The level of 16000, however, is a key barrier where the index can stumble again. On the other hand, 15650 & 15500 are the short term supports to provide cushion on the downside.

With support from banking stocks, the domestic market recouped its opening gains as provisional business data for Q1 indicated a strong credit growth. Changing investor preference from growth to value stocks is clearly visible, resulting in selling across sectors like IT. As we step towards the new earnings season, the prime focus of the market will turn towards quarterly numbers and updated guidance for the new financial year.
VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services
Towards the end of June FPI selling has been showing a declining trend. If the market rises in July anticipating or responding to good Q1 results, FPIs may again sell. This trend will be halted only when the dollar stabilises and US bond yields decline.
