Sensex Prediction for Friday, December 12 by experts
The trading session of Thursday, was a day of dramatic contrast, a high-stakes duel between the market's decisive momentum and its lingering technical caution.
Aakash Shah, Research Analyst, Choice Equity Broking Private Limited, stated the Sensex delivered a strong and confident performance today, closing near the day’s high with a sharp gain of over 426 points.
“After a period of subdued movement and persistent volatility in the earlier part of the week, the index finally witnessed decisive buying interest,” he said.
Shah further stated the day began on a slightly cautious note, but sentiment gradually improved as global markets steadied and domestic investors responded positively to easing macro concerns.
“By mid-session, momentum shifted clearly in favour of the bulls, leading to a sustained up move that carried the index comfortably into positive territory,” the expert said.
Sectorally, the market displayed broad-based strength. Financials, metals, auto, and select heavyweight industrials led the recovery, contributing significantly to the overall rise. Midcap and growth-focused stocks also participated actively, reflecting renewed appetite for risk. “Only a handful of defensive and rate-sensitive counters lagged, indicating that traders were rotating capital back toward cyclical and high-beta names after several sessions of caution,” he said.

Shah saw this robust close as a clear signal that the Sensex was attempting to break out of its recent consolidation phase, eyeing the immediate resistance zone of 85,200–85,300.
“From a technical standpoint, the robust close signals that the Sensex may be attempting to break out of its recent consolidation phase. The index now faces immediate resistance around 85,200–85,300—a zone that needs to be surpassed decisively to confirm a continuation of upward momentum. On the downside, support is seen at 84,300–84,400, a region expected to attract buying interest if any retracement occurs,” Shah highlighted.
“Overall, the session highlighted a clear shift in tone, with improved participation, strong breadth, and intraday resilience pointing toward a more constructive short-term outlook for the index,” he concluded.
SEBI-registered analyst Vipin Dixena stated Sensex continues to trade in a cautious short-term zone on the intraday chart, with price still hovering below the 50-EMA, indicating that upside momentum is not fully back yet.
“The immediate support remains at 84,500-84,400, followed by a stronger base at 84,100. On the upside, the major hurdle sits at 85,000, which has repeatedly acted as a supply zone—any move above this level will be the first sign of strength,” he noted.
The RSI has recovered to around 48–50, signalling improving momentum but not confirming bullish strength yet, Dixena said.
“Overall, the structure remains mildly negative until price reclaims the 50-EMA and RSI sustains above 55,” he Dixena.
