Indian equity benchmarks bounced
back
on Tuesday with frontline gauges surpassing their crucial 58,000 (Sensex)
and (17,250) Nifty levels on sustained buying by fund and retail investors. Key
indexes made gap-up opening and showed strength throughout the day amid
positive trends in global equity markets. 

The Nifty50 has formed a long
bull candle on the daily chart with a gap-up opening, reflecting an upside
breakout of a larger consolidation movement around 16,800-17,200 levels,
according to Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities.

This has filled
the opening gap of September 26 at 17,290 in a positive sign, and one can
expect a sharp move beyond 17,300 up ahead, he said.
