Trade setup for today: Top 15 things to know before the opening bell

📈A bounce is expected in the market during the week. For the Nifty, hurdle is at 18,650-18,850, while immediate support is seen at 18,400-18,300, Nagaraj Shetti of HDFC Securities has said

📈The market recouped the previous day's losses and snapped a two-day losing streak on June 2, on broad-based buying, with the Sensex closing 119 points higher at 62,547 and the Nifty50 ending at 18,534, up 46 points.

📈The Nifty, which traded within the previous day's range, formed a small bodied bearish candlestick with minor upper and long lower shadows on the daily charts. The pattern indicates formation of Inside Bar candle with overlapping candles.

📈"The positive chart pattern like higher tops and bottoms continued as per daily timeframe chart and the present consolidation could be in line with the higher bottom formation of the pattern. The higher bottom reversal pattern has not been confirmed yet," Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities, said.

📈Considering the recent consolidation and the subsequent negation of such bearish patterns, one can expect a bounce in the market in the coming week, he said. For Nifty, immediate support is at 18,400-18,300 and the upside hurdle is at 18,650-18,850, Shetti said.

📈The broader market outperformed the benchmark. Nifty midcap 100 and smallcap 100 indices gained half a percent each.

Key support, resistance levels on Nifty

📈The Nifty may get support at 18,492 followed by 18,470 and 18,433. If the index advances, 18,565 will be the key resistance followed by 18,588 and 18,624.

It continued forming llower highs for the third straight day.

📈"At this juncture, the Bank Nifty has rising trendline support at 43,700. Going ahead, a close below 43,700 might spoil the party for the bulls and we might witness profit booking in the markets," Jigar S Patel, Senior Manager - Equity Research, AnandRathi, said.

📈On the upside, 44,500 would be an initial resistance on way to the 45,000 milestone.

📈As per the pivot point calculator, the Bank Nifty is expected to take support at 43,841 followed by 43,776 and 43,670. Resistance will be at 44,052 then 44,117, and 44,223.
