The market extended its northward journey for the fourth consecutive week ended August 12 and closed at fresh four-month high, driven by positive global cues with falling US inflation as well as India’s CPI inflation along with consistent FIIs buying.
The Nifty50 strongly respected its near-term support at 17,500 level, and rose 1.7 percent to settle the week at 17,698, the highest closing level since April 8.
With the recovery of more than 16 percent from June lows, the index is at crucial resistance area of 17,700-17,900, which fall within the long down sloping resistance line adjoining October 19, 2021 and January 18, 2022, as well as around previous swing high levels. The index may make a move towards these levels but then there could be a possibility of profit-booking with support at 17,500, experts said.
The broader markets also participated in an uptrend with the Nifty Midcap 100 and Smallcap 100 indices climbing 1.8 percent and 1 percent during the week.
“The falling trendline resistance of the previous swing highs is around 17,700-17,800 and we have ended right around the resistance end. In case the market surpasses this hurdle, then the 78.6 percent retracement of the previous correction is around 17,875. So, this entire 200-point range of 17,700-17,900 is a crucial hurdle for the index and the momentum readings are overbought,” Ruchit Jain, Lead Research at 5paisa, said.
He thinks that it is quite possible that markets would see a corrective phase again anytime soon. Traders should wait for a confirmation of any reversal before taking any contra trades, the expert advised.
The immediate support for the Nifty is placed around 17,630 and 17,500 and a close below the mentioned supports would be a sign of reversal.
Until then, Ruchit advised traders to adopt a stock-specific approach and lower the capital allocation in trading as the risk reward is getting unfavourable for fresh investments. Also, traders are advised to book timely profits and take some money off the table in the resistance zone.

Jatin Gohil – Technical and Derivative Research Analyst at Reliance Securities
Zydus Lifesciences: Buy | LTP: Rs 386.85 | Stop-Loss: Rs 340 | Target: Rs 487 | Return: 26 percent
On week ended August 12, 2022, the stock managed to cross its 200-week SMA (simple moving average) after multi-week consolidation and rose to fresh 5-month high of Rs 389. Steady rise in volume and future open interest signals that major market participants are in favour of the bulls.
The key technical indicators witnessed bullish crossover on the long-term timeframe chart, while medium-term indicators are positively poised. The stock has potential to move towards its 100-week SMA (Rs 464) initially and the highest level of December 2021 (Rs 487) subsequently.
In case of any decline, the stock will find support around its recent higher low formation, which is placed at Rs 340.
Deepak Nitrite: Buy | LTP: Rs 2,053.8 | Stop-Loss: Rs 1,792 | Target: Rs 2,390 | Return: 16 percent
After a higher level of reversal, the stock found support around its point of polarity, which was placed at around Rs 1,700. Later, the stock formed a base around that point and moved above its key moving averages (20-week and 50-week EMAs).
Its weekly RSI again reversed from its bull market support zone (40-33) and gave a buy signal. In the past, the stock witnessed a substantial rebound after an identical reversal in the RSI. We believe history repeats itself, which will support a healthy bounce in the stock.
We continue to believe that a stable move above its key moving averages will accelerate undergoing positive momentum, which could take the stock towards Rs 2,390, where its prior swing high is placed. Fresh long position can be initiated at current juncture and on dips towards Rs 2,000 for a desired action.
On the lower side, the stock will find support around its 100-week SMA (placed at Rs 1,792).
Strides Pharma Science: Buy | LTP: Rs 349.25 | Stop-Loss: Rs 284 | Target: Rs 430 | Return: 23 percent
After a higher level of reversal (i.e. 74 percent fall from its prior peak level of Rs 999), the stock formed a base around its long-term demand zone (placed between Rs 265 and Rs 290) and poised for a rebound.
On week ended June 24, 2022, the stock had formed a bullish pattern around that demand zone managed to hold gain with the help of a consolidation.
The key technical indicators are positively poised signals that the stock is on a verge of a turnaround. The stock has potential to move towards Rs 390-405-430 in the short-term. In case of any decline, the stock will respect its long-term demand zone.
