Mumbai, The key Indian equity indices traded on a flat-to-negative note on Wednesday morning after opening in the green.

The BSE Sensex touched an all-time high of 47,807.85 points during the initial trade before shedding the initial gains.

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
