Stock Market Tech View :: 'Drop below 25,080 could trigger further correction in Nifty'
The Nifty broke its upward trend by falling below the trend line on the hourly chart. However, the index found initial support at the historical swing high. Going forward, the index might consolidate between 25,080 and 25,250. A drop below 25,080 could trigger further correction towards 24800-24750/24500; while a move beyond 25,236 might induce a rally toward higher level.

Stock Market Comment :: Why did Sensex, Nifty fall today?
The warning signals from weak US manufacturing data added concerns about a potential slowdown in the US economy, which dragged the domestic indices.
Further, a sluggish Chinese outlook exacerbated the decline in oil price to a nine-month low. Due to a lack of major domestic triggers, the indices will take direction based on global cues.
