On the outlook for Nifty today, Vaishali Parekh said, “Nifty has been moving within a tight range between 24,150 and 24,450 levels for quite some time and currently with a positive bullish candle formation has indicated a breakout to come out of the consolidation zone improving the trend and further rise is anticipated. As mentioned earlier, the index would have the next higher targets of 24,900 and 25,600 levels with the 24,000 zone maintained as the crucial support.”

"The Bank Nifty index, after indicating a positive move, fizzled out in the second half to erode the gains and close on a flat note. The index needs to breach above the 53,300 zone to trigger a fresh breakout and expect further rise with a target of 55,100 levels visible," said Parekh.

Parekh added that the Nifty today has immediate support at 24,400 levels and resistance at 24,700. The Bank Nifty index would have a daily range of 51,900 to 52,700.
