Stock picks of the day

July 24, 2006 10:57 IST

The market has had a volatile trading session to basically decline from start to finish and has finally ended the day sharply in negative territory. Banks, FMCG, Pharma, IT, Metals, Consumer Durables, Auto, PSU, Capital Goods and Oil have ended negative in varying degrees while no sector has ended in positive territory. Volume registered a marginal decrease (read as turnover) while the undertone seemed subdued.

Sensex (Daily)

Last Close - 10085.91 | Support - 10020, 09946 | Resistance - 10192, 10305

Trading Range - The Sensex opened at 10336.38, moved up to an intra-day high of 10336.38, declined to an intra-day low of 10035.24 and closed at 10085.91.

Review/Outlook - The Sensex has once again reflected some amount of weakness by opening with a small downward gap to move down up virtually from open to close but surprisingly enough on slightly lower volume. The outlook has come under pressure again and despite the extreme volatility, a range bound movement cannot be ruled out while the intra-day charts would seem to suggest a slightly oversold situation but it remains to be seen whether this translates into price action or not.
