- In morning, a news is flashed on TV that Prime minister will address the nation at 9.00 am is the major clue for the day. This will highlight whether 21 days lock down will get extended or not.
- On Wednesday, Nifty has broken 8244 level formed on Monday and seen a low of 8198 level. This is bad news for our market as this can extend weakness for the day. For today, crucial level is this low of 8198. If Nifty breach this level then you can open new short and look for target of 8000-8100 level today itself.
- On the upside, the markets are finding resistance near 8700 level and then at 9000 level.
