The Nifty50 after strong opening continued its run throughout the session and closed at highest levels in last six months on Tuesday. Strong global cues and FII flow lifted sentiment.
The index closed above 11,300 levels and formed bullish candle on the daily charts for second consecutive session.
The index has managed to cross 11,118 and 11,180 zones in last two sessions and supports are gradually shifting higher with the higher pace of buying momentum, but as it entered into overbought zone, there could be some profit booking in coming sessions, experts said.
The Nifty50 after opening sharply higher at 11,231.35 gained more strength as the day progressed and hit an intraday high of 11,320.40. The index closed 133.20 points or 1.19 percent higher at 11,301.20, the highest level since September 17, 2018.
"Nifty50 registered yet another day of gap up opening with strong bullish candle for second session in a row to continue its march towards northern direction as it cleared near term critical hurdles one after the other. Once a consolidation breakout happens it becomes quite natural to register this kind of sustainable upswings for couple of sessions," Mazhar Mohammad, Chief Strategist – Technical Research & Trading Advisory, Chartviewindia.in told Moneycontrol.
He said, however, as Nifty50 is nearing its logical resistance levels on the back of strong rally it may undergo some profit booking as it nears 11,400 levels.
Besides, this sharp upmove appears to have brought the indices into overbought zone on lower time frame charts making a case for some cooling off in the near term, he added.
On the down sides, Tuesday's gap zone of 11,227–11,180 can be considered as critical support going forward below which short term trend shall come under pressure, according to Mazhar.
For the time being, he advised traders to consider booking profits as Nifty heads towards 11,400 levels.
India VIX closed higher after the declines of last seven trading sessions. It was moved up by 1.33 percent to 15.09 levels.

"Nifty index surpassed its resistance trend line of the sideways channel and closed above the same with the formation of bullish candle on daily scale which indicates bullish bias. Now it has to continue to hold above 11,200 zone to extend its gains towards 11,400-11,450 zones," Chandan Taparia, Associate Vice President | Analyst-Derivatives at Motilal Oswal Financial Services said.
