For the outlook on the Nifty 50 and the Bank Nifty index, Vaishali Parekh said, “Nifty eroded the gains witnessed in the morning session and has been overall consolidating near the 25,150 zone with bias still maintained cautiously positive as of now.”
“The index would have the crucial support of 25,000 level and on the upside would need a decisive breach above the 25,300 zone to establish conviction for further fresh upward journey,” said the stock market expert.
“Bank Nifty, as mentioned earlier, has been underperforming and would need a decisive breach above 51,800 zone to trigger for fresh upward move to retest the previous peak zone of 53,350 levels while on the downside, the zone near the 50EMA level of 50,900 would remain the important near-term support,” said Parekh.
Parekh said that the Nifty 50 for today has support at 25,000, while the resistance lies at 25,300. The Bank Nifty index would have a daily range of 51,000 to 52,000.
