Bajaj Finance has pivoted at 7,600, and the buyers will likely continue being in control if the share price stays above that level. The upside could encounter the first hurdle at 7,653, but a stronger push by the sellers could break above that level to test 7,700.
Alternatively, moving below 7,600 will favour the sellers to take control . In that case, initial support will likely be at 7,550. However, if the downside momentum strengthens, the share price could break below that level to invalidate the upside narrative and potentially test 7,500.
