How would you read Friday's rally? It appeared as if traders were waiting for the July series to get over before buying again in the August series.
Nifty had a decent rally on Friday following a period of downward consolidation in the previous few sessions. The index sustained above the 21 EMA at closing, setting the stage for solid gains in the near term. Banks, which had not been supportive in the last few sessions, came in with their full support. The sentiment looks apt for a strong rally in the market. Technically, Nifty has made a decisive move above 24,600, which acted as a strong resistance level in the recent past. Going forward, the trend is likely to remain strong as long as it stays above 24,500.
