Technical Talk: “The Nifty has opened in splendid form going past the 11450 level! We should be targeting 11500 – 11700 levels and this could be achieved during the course of this month’s expiry itself. The support has been upgraded to 11350. A buy on dips strategy can be implemented,” said Manish Hathiramani, proprietary index trader and technical analyst, Deen Dayal Investments.
