Author’s View: After touching the intraday high of 13,216 Nifty loses its gains and settles below 13,150 level. If Nifty manages to close above 13,150 we can see immediate targets of 13,250 – 13,300. On the downside, till Nifty is trading above 13,050 level, every dip can be utilized as a buying opportunity.
