Index: Nifty
The Nifty continues to find support at 50 DMA and resistance at 20 DMA. This is a clear indecision as far as short-term trends are concerned. On the candlestick pattern as well, a Harami pattern on daily chart is also signalling an indecision and requires confirmation above Monday high or below Monday low. We expect the price to slide lower towards 14,600 once it goes below 14,810.

Both the indices are trading in a narrow range with huge volatility. Due to small trading range, India VIX continued to make lower lows and closed at level of 20.2. Until the VIX closes below 20, there is a higher chance of volatility getting elevated than subdued.
