By
Chandan TapariaThe Nifty50 index opened positive and remained rangebound for the most part of Friday’s session
It formed a Hammer candle on daily chart and a small-bodied candle on the weekly scale, which implied buying on declines
Followup action was missing on either side, as Nifty has been consolidating between 10,450 and 10,650 levels for the last entire week.
Now
it has to hold above 10,450 to extend its upward move towards the 10,650 -10,750 zone, while on the downside, multiple supports are seen at
10,450 and then 10,380 levels.

was at 11,000 followed by 10,800

India VIX fell 0.64 per cent to 17.76 level
However as long as it does not hold below 16-16.50 zone, the upside seems capped in the market.
Bank Nifty consolidated in a narrow trading
range between 25,550 and 25,850 levels for the entire week

levels, whereas the bears are putting pressure at higher levels.
