Views On Morning Nifty and Derivative comments 16 August 2023 by Anand James - Chief Market Strategist at Geojit Financial Services

Nifty outlook: 

While Monday’s smart recovery was encouraging, inability to push beyond 19460 has left us without an upside confirmation. We may however, scout for bargain buying until above 19386, supported by the hammer formation which allows upside hopes to remain, aiming 19520-670. Alternatively, should we fall below 19360, expect downsides to hasten towards 19258, 19060-18900 or even 18600 - Read more
