The strong up move witnessed during yesterday’s session has helped the SENSEX register a close above it short term and medium term moving averages. But, we would like to point out that the index still has stiff resistance on the upside between the 18500—18700 levels as the index has corrected from these levels on previous occasions. Thus failure to cross the above mentioned resistance levels could see the index pullback towards the 18300—18200 levels. The 18000—18200 levels will act as strong support for the SENSEX on the downside.
