Market wrap up(DWM,T,N,E):Indian equities closed on a higher note on Friday, extending their winning run to the sixth consecutive session, as bulls gained momentum. Benchmark share indices gradually reclaim milestones one after another, with Nifty rising from its 52-week low of 15,190 hit in June to 16,700 levels on July 22. “As this index is consistently trading above 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), dips can remain a buying opportunity as long as it sustains above 16,500 levels on a closing basis,” As the Nifty is in the overbought zone accompanied by a 25-day-old channel resistance at around 16,752, if it slips below 16,610, it can attract selling pressure towards 16,500-16,480, he said, adding however, if the index closes above 16,793, it can extend the rally to 17,000. The best buying opportunity will emerge only on a dip and long-side traders should book profits by making use of the current strength, the market expert advised. But the broader markets appeared to be overbought or cautious after significant run up, as the Nifty Midcap 100 closed flat and Smallcap 100 indices gained 0.37 percent on Friday. The market breadth was not very strong either as about 1,024 shares advanced against 919 declining shares on the NSE.
