The recovery in the afternoon helped the market close moderately higher on August 16 as traders waited for any governmental action to revive the sluggish economy. The sectoral trend was mixed with Nifty Bank and Auto indices gaining 0.7 percent and 1.15 percent, respectively, while pharma, IT and metal closed in the red.

Sensex gained 38.80 points to close at 37,350.33 while the Nifty rose 18.40 points to 11,047.80 and formed Doji pattern on daily charts as opening and closing values were almost equal.

For the week, the index lost 0.56 percent and saw the formation of Hammer candle on the weekly scale, which is bullish reversal candle by nature so there could be some upside in coming sessions.

"The chart pattern suggests that if Nifty crosses and sustains above 11,100, it would witness buying that would lead the index towards 11,200-11,260. However, if index breaks below 10,900, it would witness selling that would take the index towards 10,800-10,750," Rajesh Palviya, Head Technical & Derivative Research at Axis Securities told Moneycontrol.

He said Nifty is trading below 20, 50, 100 and 200-day SMAs indicating negative bias in the short term. He expects the index to trade in the range of 11,250-10,900 with a positive bias in the next week.
