On the outlook for the Nifty 50 and the Bank Nifty index, Parekh said, “Nifty once again finding resistance near the 24,500 zone has slippped down with profit booking seen to form a lower top pattern on the daily chart with bias and sentiment maintained following a cautious approach.”
“The index would have the important support near 24,000 zone, below which it can retest the crucial zone of the 200-period MA at 23,500 levels,” said the stock market expert.
“Bank Nifty has been finding a tough barrier near the 52,500 zone and, once again, with profit booking, witnessed a slide to move below the significant 50EMA zone of 51,700 levels to weaken the bias. Anticipate a further slide. The index would have the crucial support near 50,400 levels, after which the trend would turn weak with next important level positioned near the 200-period MA at 49,600 level,” said Parekh.
