However the vote share rose to 49.1% from 48.3%, which is highest since 2002.

OUTLOOK

Today morning, Asian markets are trading with gains of upto 0.4% and SGX Nifty is suggesting a marginally higher start for our market.

In yesterday's report we had mentioned that a crossover of 10373 would confirm a "Buy" on the hourly chart and in that case 10490, the top made in early November, would be the next target to eye.

Nifty, after touching a low 10075 in the initial trade, rebounded, crossed the 10373 hurdle and went all the way to 10443 before closing at 10388.


10490 continues to be upside target as well as resistance to eye. Immediate support on the hourly chart is placed at 10280, with the stop-loss of which, trading longs should be held on to.
