Nifty closed at 9,788 on Friday. It was slightly weaker and is likely to remain in this range for some more time, with support at 9,636 and 9,425 and resistance at 9,844 and 9,950. Major domestic macro data is weak and along with a weak technical set-up of the indices, it also suggests bears may continued to rule the market.
