The Nifty50 index marginally in the red on Tuesday after failing to a breakout of the key resistance hurdle at 15,780, which is the 127 per cent Fibonacci extension level of the previous corrective wave. The index has been continuously forming a hanging man candlestick pattern following the current prolonged upmove at the key resistance of 15,780-15,800, which suggests that the uptrend is losing momentum and a failure to break out of this resistance in the coming sessions may lead to corrections.
On the downside, immediate support is placed at 15,670. A move below this support level could trigger corrections to 15,600-15,550 levels. However, a successful breakout from the resistance zone of 15,780-15,800 would extend the uptrend, taking the index higher to levels of 15,870. RSI has also turned southwards from the cluster of previous resistance peaks, suggesting a weakening uptrend.
