Nifty Outlook

The swing higher yesterday turned lower on test of 23220 on anticipated lines, but our key support of 23000 diffused the downside momentum in the second half, just as it did in the first half as well. This encourages us to persist with the upside target of 23430. Alternatively, inability to push above 23220 or inability to float above 23000 could deflate the upside momentum, but we will wait for slippage past 22800 again to rechart course.
