The Indian benchmark indices got off to a soft start and shifted into an intraday sideways range movement for the better part of the session. Buying emerged during the afternoon session and Nifty closed at 8270. Nifty managed to close above its resistance of 61.8 per cent retracement level. However, now going forward major resistance is placed around levels of 8330-8340 which is swing high registered in the month of October, 2015. A close above these hurdles will result in the start of a fresh wave of up-move which is likely to take index up to levels of 8440-8530 in the short term. On the downside, immediate support for the index is placed around 8220-8240 zone. A breach of this level will open gates for correction up to levels of 8130. The crucial global event of BREXIT will dictate the market movements in the coming sessions.
