On the outlook for the Nifty 50 and the Bank Nifty index, Parekh said, “Nifty witnessed profit booking during the intraday session to plunge near the crucial and important 23,800 zone with bias and sentiment turning very cautious.”

“Bank Nifty also slipped near the 51,000 zone, with major banking stocks like HDFC Bank, Kotak Bank, Axis Bank, and SBIN losing steam to end the index near 51,150 levels. Sector-wise, except for Realty & IT stocks, which ended in green, the rest of the counter closed in deep red, with Auto, PSU & Private Banks, energy, metal, infrastructure, FMCG, and real estate among the major laggards. The market breadth was weak, with the advance-decline indicating a ratio of 1:2 at close,” said the stock market expert.

“Nifty ended on the losing side after a short consolidation session ending below the 24,000 zone with bias turning weak, and it has the next crucial support zone maintained near the 23,800 zone, which needs to be sustained as of now,” said Parekh.

“For the bias to improve, a decisive breach above the 24,300 level is important to carry on with the upward move,” she said.

“Bank Nifty, after resisting near the 52,200 zone, has slipped below the important support level of the 50-EMA and 100-DMA zones at around 51,700 levels and almost touched the 51,000 zone. The index would have near-term support of 50,700, whereas the crucial support would be positioned at 50,400 levels, below which matter would turn much worse. One can maintain a cautious view and wait for further conviction and clarity in the market in the coming days,” said Vaishali Parekh.

Parekh said that the Nifty 50 Spot for today has support at 23,600 points, while the resistance lies at 24,200 points. The Bank Nifty index would have a daily range of 50,400 to 52,000.
