The Nifty 50's four-session recovery halted on Tuesday as the index declined nearly 160 points from its intraday high to close down 85.30 points at 23,329.
The session formed a bearish engulfing candlestick pattern after the index failed to sustain above its 8-EMA short-term trend indicator.
Analysts identify the 23,500–23,600 range as key resistance, with immediate support positioned near the 23,286 level.
