Markets remained volatile on Tuesday and ended lower amid mixed global cues and lingering geopolitical uncertainty. Technically, analysts say the lack of follow-through buying in the Nifty after the breakout above the 24,000 mark reaffirms the cautious undertone and expiry-related positioning. The choppiness is likely to continue on Wednesday as well due to the monthly expiry at the BSE. Immediate support is now placed near the 23,800 level, while the 24,300–24,500 zone may act as the next resistance band.
