Experts believe the market may remain in a range ahead of the general election outcome. At the same time, the ongoing results season will infuse stock-specific movements.
On the macro front, the eurozone GDP data and the Bank of England (BoE) policy decision will be the focus of this week.
On the technical front, the market is showing signs of weakness and a further correction may be possible.
“The Nifty index shows signs of near-term bearishness as it forms a double top pattern on the daily chart, coupled with a bearish engulfing candle. This suggests a sell-on-rise approach in the market,” said Kunal Shah, Senior Technical & Derivative Analyst at LKP Securities.
“Immediate resistance is noted at the 22,600-22,700 zone, where aggressive call writing has been observed in the options market. On the downside, the index has immediate support at 22,300, and a breach below this level could accelerate the downside momentum,” said Shah.
