Technical View

Commenting on the technical outlook of the NSE Nifty 50, Rupak De, Senior Technical analyst at LKP Securities, said,”Nifty moved up smartly as the bulls remained at the helm following a consolidation breakout on the daily chart. Besides, the index is sitting comfortably above the crucial short-term moving average. The overall trend looks positive with broader market participation and a smart recovery in the Bank Nifty. Over the short term, the Nifty might move towards 20,450-20,500 unless it falls below 19,850.”

Bank Nifty Outlook

Bank Nifty index jumped 685.50 points or 1.56% to settle at 44,566.45 on Wednesday. “The Bank Nifty witnessed a robust comeback by the bulls, driving the index up by over 700 points. Currently in a strong buy mode, the index has established a solid support base within the 44,300-44,200 zone, providing a cushion for bullish sentiment. The next significant hurdle for the index is at 44,700, and its ability to decisively surpass this level will determine whether a period of consolidation is in store for the near term,” said Kunal Shah, Senior Technical & Derivative analyst at LKP Securities.
