Given the consistent momentum, the Nifty50 is likely to inch up towards 18,000-18,300 area in May series, with support shifting higher to 17,800-17,700 levels, experts said.

If the Nifty manages to go past 17,700-17,850, it can rise to 18,000, while 17,600 will act as support on the down side, experts have said

Psychological 18,000 mark is likely to be tested in coming sessions if the index manages to hold above 17,700 levels with momentum indicator RSI (relative strength index) showing positive crossover, whereas the crucial support remained at 17,500, experts said.

Overall the index has been in a trading range of 16,800-17,200 for almost couple of weeks and within this range, the every dip is getting bought and every rise is seeing profit taking. Hence, unless and until this range gets broken on either side, the index may remain volatile with negative bias, experts said.
