The Indian market has been volatile lately, but it managed to close flat with negative bias for the month of April. Meanwhile, broader market outperformed benchmarks as the S&P BSE Midcap index rose 0.65 percent, and the S&P BSE Smallcap index closed with gains of about 5 percent in April.
While Rise in COVID cases as well as the possibility of extended localised lockdowns still remains a concern, experts say if Nifty manages to hold 14,300 level, it may retest its previous record high of 15,430.
“The rollover has been very low this time in both Nifty and Bank Nifty and also the open interest in both is not significant. This indicates that markets are light and can turn either way based on the way positions are being built,” Mehul Kothari, AVP – Technical Research at AnandRathi said.
“We hope that things start to settle by the middle of the May series. On the levels front, 14,300–15400 is the range which we are expecting,” he said.
We have collated a list of trading ideas for the May series as recommended by various experts to tide over the volatility and prepare for possibility of a bounce back:
