Day trading strategy for Wednesday
Unveiling intraday trading tips for Wednesday, Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities said, “The underlying short-term trend of Nifty is positive. The market is currently placed at the edge of upside breakout of the consolidation or triangle pattern around 18,100 levels. A decisive upside breakout with confirmation could open a large upside for the market ahead. Any lack of strength during upside breakout is likely to result in reversal of uptrend.”
