Manish Hathiramani, technical analyst with Deen Dayal Investments said: “The markets got off to a flying start but decided to take a breather closer to the 16,300 level. If we can get past 16,300, the next target for the Nifty should be 16,600. The new support for the market is at 15,700 and hence any dip or intra-day correction can be used to accumulate long positions for higher targets.”
