The rise above 24,100 is significant. That leaves the short-term outlook bullish for the Nifty to see a rise to 24,500-24,600 this week.
Support will be around 24,000. Nifty has to fall below 24,000 in order to come under pressure. But that looks less likely for now.

Trading strategy
Since the support is much lower from current levels, we suggest positional trades at the moment. A trade with a one-week time frame looks more suitable for now rather than taking an intraday trade. Wait for dips and go longs at 24,130 and 23,980. Keep the stop-loss at 23,860. Trail the stop-loss up to 24,210 as soon as the contract moves up to 24,320. Move the stop-loss further up to 24,380 when the contract touches 24,460. Exit the long positions at 24,580.
Supports: 24,100, 23,900
