With majority of the frontline stock results to be released during the week we anticipate volatility in the indices with 17800 maintained as the crucial support zone and upside 18250 capped as of now and as said earlier, a decisive breach is required to establish a directional move and to carry on the momentum still further.”

ICICI Bank stock in focus

“The support for Nifty is seen at 17,900 while the resistance is seen at 18,200 levels. Bank Nifty would have the daily range of 42,000 to 43,000 levels,” Parekh said.
