Share market today live updates: Technical outlook
“Technically, the market successfully crossed the 50-day SMA (simple moving average) level and the 23,000/75700 resistance zone, which is largely positive. Additionally, it formed a bullish candle on the daily chart, supporting further upside from current levels. We believe the overall market sentiment is bullish, but buying on dips and selling on ups would be the ideal strategy for day traders. In the near term, 23,100/76000 and 23,000/75700 or (50-day SMA) will be the key support zones, while 23,300/76500 and 23,400/76800 may act as key resistance zones for day traders,” said Shrikant Chouhan, Head – Equity Research, Kotak Securities.

Share market today live updates: Crude oil prices
“Crude oil remained highly volatile and extended its gains, supported by U.S. sanctions on Iran and OPEC+ plans to cut production. Prices also rose after a Ukrainian drone attack on Russia. The U.S. imposed fresh sanctions on Iranian crude shipments, targeting a Chinese refinery and its suppliers. OPEC+ announced output cuts of 189,000 to 435,000 barrels per day until June 2026,” said Rahul Kalantri, VP Commodities, Mehta Equities.

Share market today live updates: Nifty outlook
“Nifty seemed to be in a hurry yesterday, taking just three days to travel the upper half of the Bollinger band range, in stark contrast to the 10 days needed for the lower half. In doing so, it cast aside any need for consolidation, which was half anticipated yesterday. While all this is in line with the 23450- 23807 trajectory, the close above the upper Bollinger band as well as an evening star candlestick formation recommends a cautious approach today. Plenty of support below, at 23085- 23025-22970 shall attract bargain buyers, but slippage past the same could expose 22650. A collapse is less expected though,” said Anand James, Chief Market Strategist, Geojit Financial Services.
