Know how Nifty and Sensex weathered away two hours of trade today

Both the Sensex and the Nifty weathered two hours of trade on Wednesday without much of profit booking, perhaps indicating that gains are here the stay for at least a short while. A strong overnight close on Wall Street and smart gains across Asia changed sentiment for the better on Dalal Street. Major bouts of short coverings are seen across the board as traders scramble to avoid the onslaught of the bulls. Here is a snapshot of the market at 11:20 AM with a special focus on the Futures and Options segment.
