Furthermore, the momentum indicator has given a falling trend line breakout, indicating a potential increase in upward momentum, Shah said."As long as the Nifty remains above the support level of 17,700, the overall trend is expected to remain positive. However, a resistance level is anticipated at 19,000, which may present a challenge for further upward movement," he said.According to Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd, Indian equities are set to make an all-time high on the back of a strong rally in global markets supported by healthy domestic cues.Nifty continued its northbound journey to end at an all-time high on closing basis, with gains of 138 points (0.7 per cent) at 18,826 levels.

Nifty came within striking distance of an all-time high. We expect the overall structure to remain positive with major events now behind," he added.According to him, all eyes would be on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the US next week, as it would bring in cross-border agreements with a key focus on defence. Sectors like pharma, healthcare, and insurance companies would remain in focus after recovery was seen in monthly industry data.vj/vdDisclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
