The market witnessed a bout of volatility during the fag end of the session before closing lower on March 27. On the daily chart, the index closed with a red candle body which is hanging over the previous green candle.

Though the latest red candle doesn't qualify as a proper dark cloud cover, it may contain some venom of a dark cloud cover.

The daily strength indicator has come out of its overbought zone and it is currently comforting below 70. On the weekly chart, the index is seen consolidating after a smart rally.

Going forward, the index may witness some bit of downward consolidation which may take the index towards 11,200-11,050 which is the previous swing high on the daily chart.

Failure to sustain above 11,050 may induce a bigger correction in the market. Whereas on the higher end, sustained trades above 11,500 may negate the short-term weakness and the Nifty may start moving up once again. Short to medium-term outlook remains strong as long as Nifty holds above 11,050.
