The NSE Nifty50 Index could stay positive on Friday, even as geopolitical issues and rising consumer price inflation continue to haunt, analysts told Capital.com.

“The short-term trend of Nifty continues to be positive. A sustainable move above the immediate resistance of 17,450-17,500 levels could open the next upside levels of around 17,800-18,000 levels in the near term. Immediate support is placed at 17,250,” Nagaraj Shetti, technical research analyst at HDFC Securities said.

“Friday is likely to see a quiet start to the day. The levels of 17,440 and 17,500 will act as probable resistance points. The supports come in at 17,280 and 17,185 levels. The 200-DMA (daily moving average) currently stands at 17,185 and is likely to remain a crucial support point for the Nifty in the near term on a closing basis,” a CapitalVia Global Research note prepared exclusively for Capital.com said.

“We are of the view that the short-term texture has changed to positive, but due to over-stretch intraday formation, range-bound activity is not ruled out,” Kotak Securities head of equity research (retail) Shrikant Chouhan said.

The difference between trading assets and CFDs
The main difference between CFD trading and trading assets, such as commodities and stocks, is that you don’t own the underlying asset when you trade on a CFD.
You can still benefit if the market moves in your favour, or make a loss if it moves against you. However, with traditional trading you enter a contract to exchange the legal ownership of the individual shares or the commodities for money, and you own this until you sell it again.
CFDs are leveraged products, which means that you only need to deposit a percentage of the full value of the CFD trade in order to open a position. But with traditional trading, you buy the assets for the full amount. In the UK, there is no stamp duty on CFD trading, but there is when you buy stocks, for example.
CFDs attract overnight costs to hold the trades (unless you use 1-1 leverage), which makes them more suited to short-term trading opportunities. Stocks and commodities are more normally bought and held for longer. You might also pay a broker commission or fees when buying and selling assets direct and you’d need somewhere to store them safely.
