was trading at 13,932.45. lower by just 0.15 points. Manish Hathiramani, technical analyst with DeenDayal Investments said: "The markets seem a little nervous to hit the 14,000 mark. We have gone around that level yesterday and today. It is really a mere formality to achieve that as the Nifty seems poised to conquer 14,100 as a potential target." "A good support lies at 13,600 so traders can consider buying into this trend during any intraday correction," he said
