Day Trading Guide: 2 stock recommendations for Friday
Following the 5-day gradual upmove, Nifty50 is now approaching overbought territory on a shorter time-frame and key resistance zone of 18,300-18,350.

Indian benchmark index Nifty50 ended Thursday's volatile session in the green as bulls continued to push the markets higher following a very minor intraday decline. However, following the 5-day gradual upmove, the headline index is now approaching overbought territory on a shorter time-frame and key resistance zone of 18,300-18,350. A sustained trade beyond this key hurdle can extend the upmove to levels of 18,600 which happened to be the previous all-time high.
However, failure to breakout and sustain beyond 18,350 may lead to profit-booking dragging the index lower to the levels of 181,00-18,000. Moreover, RSI on the hourly time frame has started to form a negative divergence which suggests that traders should be cautious going ahead and sharp intraday corrections and a spike in volatility cannot be ruled out.
