The benchmark indices reached a one-month high on March 17 as there was healthy buying in all sectors. Stable oil prices and positive global mood aided market sentiment.

The Nifty50 jumped to the highest level since February 17 and formed a bullish candle on the daily charts. The bulls had a strong upper hand at Dalal Street, as evidenced by the robust bullish candle formation.

The last eight trading sessions added around 1,673 points, leading to two strong bullish candles on the weekly charts. The founder and chief market strategist at Chartviewindia said that this may be a sign of a durable bottom around recent lows.

He said that a higher target of 17,900 can't be ruled out based on the 37 day downsloping channel.

A pause for one or two days due to profit-booking can't be ruled out because of the rally of the last few sessions. If the Nifty closes below 16,990, the current positive outlook will be null and void. Mohammad said that dips will create fresh longs.
