The benchmark index was trading in a narrow range for more than eight days within the smaller degree channel pattern on the daily time frame.

However, the prices recovered from the lower levels after forming a piercing line (bullish reversal) candlestick pattern near the lower band of the pattern.

After narrow range consolidation, bulls have managed to hold on with conviction. Since April 20, the Nifty has rallied more than four percent from its lower end of falling channel pattern on the daily chart.
