OUTLOOK

Today morning Asian markets are trading with gains of upto a percent and SGX Nifty is suggesting about 20 points higher opening for our market.

On Tuesday, we had recommended holding on to trading longs with the stop loss of 7800. The benchmark, after touching a high of 7870, slipped to end at 7832, but is agains slated to open higher today.

7800 continues to be immediate support, with the stop loss of which trading longs should be held on to. 7907, the top made on Friday, continues to be immediate hurdle, above which, 34-DMA, placed around 8043, would be the next target to eye.
