Nifty Energy Index
View: Sell at current market price or on the rise

The Nifty Energy Index, with a current market price of 23,692.15, is currently experiencing a bearish trend on the near-term charts.
This suggests that prices are more likely to decline than rise in the short term. Traders are advised to adopt a selling strategy, taking advantage of any upward price movements to sell their positions. The recommended targets for this selling strategy are around 23,375 - 23,000.

On the other hand, investors may consider accumulating positions around the 23,000 level, as the short-term trend is expected to be bullish. It is important to note that the ongoing correction in the index is viewed as a healthy and temporary pullback within the broader uptrend.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI), currently at 51, indicates a slight decline in momentum. At the same time, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram has recently crossed below the zero line, suggesting a potential shift toward bearish momentum. Therefore, the sell-on-rise strategy remains the preferred approach for traders, with the mentioned target levels serving as potential profit-taking points.
