Trade setup for Friday: Top 15 things to know before Opening Bell

The market traded volatile with a negative bias for a major part of the session and closed in the red for the fifth straight session on July 1. Select banking and financials, IT and metal stocks pulled the market lower, while auto, FMCG and pharma stocks gained.
The BSE Sensex declined 164.11 points to 52,318.60, while the Nifty50 fell 41.50 points to 15,680 and formed a bearish candle on the daily charts.
“A reasonable negative candle was formed, that placed at the crucial support of 20day EMA on the daily chart around 15,680 levels. We also observe a formation overlapping negative candles over the last three sessions, which indicate rangebound action and sellonrise opportunity in the market,” Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities told Moneycontrol.
He says the formation of such patterns could eventually result in an upside breakout. “As of now, there is no early sign of any upside bounce from the lows,” he said.
He further said the Nifty continued to show choppy movement with negative bias and still there is no evidence of any upside bounce emerging from the lows. “The Nifty is currently placed at the important cluster support of 15,650 levels and a move below this area could result in slide down to 15,500 levels,” he added. The broader markets closed mixed as the Nifty Midcap 100 index declined 0.33 percent and Nifty Smallcap 100 index gained 0.66 percent.
