Sensex

Last Close - 14104.20 | Support - 14046, 13872 | Resistance - 14431, 14732

Trading Range - The Sensex opened at 13837.64, moved up to an intra-day high of 14206.13, declined to an intra-day low of 13798.18 and closed at 14104.20.

Review/Outlook - The Sensex has had a mixed trading session, has had a neutral opening, has moved both ways, has faced buying support at lower levels, has come off from its intra - day low and has finally ended in positive territory on higher volume. Volatility can be the order of the day; an intra-day upside (seems like a formality) could come in above the 14105 level while significant resistance at higher levels (14700) - would limit the upside. The outlook has turned neutral again while resistance comes in at the 14700+ level and support comes in at the 12316 level.
