After a stellar upside move, the benchmark Nifty50 is consolidating within a very narrow range over the last three trading sessions and taking immediate resistance at 17,400 levels.
The momentum oscillator RSI (relative strength index 14) reading in a higher high higher bottom formation from 30 levels has reached near its overbought zone which is 70 levels and the slope of the oscillator has started to move lower like an inverted scallop pattern on the daily time frame.
The distance between the 21 EMA (exponential moving average) which is placed at 16,640 and prices has increased and we may find a corrective move to reduce the distance. In the past six trading days, Nifty has witnessed two gap up openings without any correction and both the gaps are unfiled. So there are chances prices may give a throwback towards that level.
The immediate support for the Nifty is placed at 17,100 and below those 16,800 levels. The upside resistance is capped near 17,600 & 17,800 levels.
On the daily chart, Bank Nifty has formed a Bearish Shark Harmonic Pattern on the daily time frame and prices are trading near its PRZ (potential reversal zone) levels and the momentum oscillator RSI (14) is reading at the overbought levels. The immediate support for the Bank Nifty is placed at 37,200 and below those 37,000 levels. The upside resistance is capped at 38,500 levels.
