Speaking on the outlook of the Nifty 50 today, Shiju Kuthupalakkal, Senior Manager of Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher, said, "The Nifty 50 index has been volatile during the intraday session and after cooling off to some extent in the previous session has taken support near 24,550 zone, to indicate a revival with overall bias maintained positive to close in the green near 24,650 level. As mentioned earlier, the index would have the near-term support zone of 24,450 to 24,500 band where it can find some consolidation and once a decisive breach above the 24,800 zone is confirmed, then it can target the 25,200 and 25,400 levels in the coming days."
Asked about the outlook of the Bank Nifty today, Om Mehra, Technical Research Analyst, SAMCO Securities, said, “The broader structure still appears to be bullish as long as the index sustains above the support zone of 54,400–54,250. On a wider time frame, a breakdown below this region could drag it toward the lower band of the channel near 53,500. The resistance is seen around 55,220. A decisive close above this level could signal a breakout from the declining trendline and may revive bullish momentum.”
