NSE index may fall to a key support of 8,600 before resuming its uptrend, according to technical analysts.
The 50-share index is already down 2.9 per cent from record high.
Wednesday’s fall was a bearish engulfing pattern formed after touching intraday highs on candlestick charts, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Such a pattern has formed thrice since Narendra Modi became Prime Minster in May and has led to 4.9 to 5.9 per cent decline.
The analysts say near 6 per cent decline from record high of 9,119.15 would come at 8,572.
Also, they say 8,600 served as key resistance between November-December 2014.
