For the outlook on the Nifty 50 and the Bank Nifty index, Parekh said, “Nifty has been resisting near the 25,300 zone and finally, with a bearish candle formation, gave in with heavy profit booking witnessed to end below the crucial support of 24,900 zone with bias and sentiment precariously placed.”

“The index would have the important near-term support zone of 24,800 level below which there can be intensified selling pressure with next major support lying near 24,500 zone,” said the stock market expert.

“Bank Nifty after resisting near the 51,600 zone, has indicated a big bearish candle breaching below the 50EMA zone of 50,900 level weakening the trend and has further major support zone of 49,600 levels of the previous low made. The index already has been underperforming and further ahead would need to sustain the 49,600 zone to maintain the overall trend intact,” said Parekh.

Parekh said that the Nifty 50 for today has support at 24,700, while the resistance lies at 25,000. The Bank Nifty index would have a daily range of 50,200 to 51,000.
