Nifty futures were trading 55 points.50 points or 0.35 per cent down at 15,858.50 on Singaporean Exchange on Tuesday, indicating a negative start for BSE Sensex and Nifty 50. Market participants will watch Q1 results, upcoming IPOs, foreign fund flows, covid vaccination pace, oil prices, rupee movement and other global cues. Following the gains made in the previous session, analysts say that bulls seem to have come back, after a lackluster type movement of last few sessions. “A sustainable move above the initial hurdle of 15880 levels is expected to pull the Nifty towards the next crucial area of 15960-16000 and higher in the short term. Immediate support is placed at 15830 levels,” said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities.
