The bulls managed to keep the benchmark indices in the positive territory amidst volatility. However, the Nifty50 index continued to face tough resistance at the 20-DMA placed at 14,900 levels. Further, a failure to take out this resistance of 14,900 may resume the corrective wave, dragging the index lower to levels of 14,730-14,630.

However, on the flipside, if the index sustains beyond 20-DMA, i.e., 14,900 level, fresh uptrend may be triggered, taking the index higher to levels of 15,000-15,100.

Overall, the index is going through an irregular flat correction with a major hurdle at 15,270-15,300. A close above this hurdle will resume the uptrend.
