From a technical perspective, the Nifty sustains its position above both short-term and long-term moving averages. Momentum indicators suggest a favorable trend. Markedly, the index formed a second consecutive Doji candle on the daily chart, closing near the short-term resistance of 22,500, suggesting an uptrend might continue. The closing above the 22,500 level may indicate a robust positive trend in the coming sessions, while failure to do so could lead to a brief consolidation below this level. The nearest intraday support is seen at the 22,400 level.
