index breached its 20 DEMA in today's session, which indicates a downside breakout of the range movement of the last few sessions. The huge opening upside gap of 25th November has been filled and the Nifty closed around the gap support of 23,900 levels.
On the downside, the index will find immediate support near 23,800, followed by 23,560, which is the 200-Days exponential moving average (DEMA) support level. The index is still facing strong resistance near 24,350-24,360 levels. As long as the index persists below 24,360, traders should focus on booking profits on the bounce and wait for a fresh breakout, said Hrishikesh Yedve of Asit C. Mehta Investment Interrmediates.
