In terms of technical levels, initial support is expected around 1860, followed by a major support level at 1755, where the 200-day simple moving average is situated.
On the upside, the first resistance is at 2000, while a more significant resistance is seen at 2050 where the 100 DMA is placed.Berger Paint
