Stock Market Today: Dalal Street was expected to have a successful start on Wednesday as the GIFT Nifty on the NSE IX trading 45 points, or 0.23 percent, higher at 19,605.50. On the daily chart, Nifty on Tuesday finished around 26 points down, forming a small-bodied bearish candle with a long lower shadow.
