Nifty 50 formed a small body candle on the daily chart with minor upper and lower shadow. This market action is indicating a formation of doji type candle pattern, which is back-to-back for two sessions, signalling confusion in the state of mind among market participants.

“The opening upside gap of November 2nd, 3rd and 6th remains intact on the daily chart and the immediate resistance of 19,300 has already been broken on the higher side. The overall chart pattern remains positive and one may expect the Nifty to advance towards 19,600 levels in the short term,” said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities.
