July 24, 2008 09:25 IST

The market has remained in a positive state of mind, has come off its intra-day low and has finally ended the day sharply in positive territory. Auto, FMCG, Healthcare, Oil, PSU, Banks, Metals, Realty, Consumer Durables, Capital Goods & IT have ended positive in varying degrees while no sector has ended in negative territory.

Sensex

Last Close - 14942.28 | Support - 14732, 14431 | Resistance - 15037, 15330

Trading Range - The Sensex opened at 14568.22, moved up to an intra-day high of 14979.90, declined to an intra-day low of 14568.22 and closed at 14942.28.

Review/Outlook - The Sensex has had a solid trading session, has had a positive opening, has moved just one way, has faced buying support even at higher levels, has come off from its intra - day low and has finally ended sharply in positive territory on higher volume. Volatility can be the order of the day; an intra-day upside (seems like a possibility) could come in above the 14954 level while significant resistance at higher levels (15300) - would limit the upside. The outlook has turned positive again while resistance comes in at the 15300+ level and support comes in at the 12780 level.
