Nifty Energy Index

The Nifty Energy Index, which last closed at 38,160, is indicating a downtrend in the near term as observed on charts.

A strong support level is anticipated around 36,925, which appears to be an attractive level for a potential technical bounce in the near term.

However, it is crucial to monitor this level closely, as a break below 36,925 could trigger a fresh round of selling, potentially leading to the next support level around 35,250. Hence, it is essential to watch this level carefully.

On the other hand, resistance on the charts is expected between 38500 and 38750. Within this zone, a pullback is anticipated to be completed if the markets do not correct from the current market price.

Investors or swing traders are advised to keep these levels in mind: buying around 36925 if the markets correct from the current market price, and booking profits within the zone of 38500 to 38750 if the markets rally from the current market price.
