On the outlook for the Nifty 50 and the Bank Nifty index, Parekh said, “Nifty finally witnessed a decisive move past the resistance barrier of 24,350 zone, which was also where the significant 50EMA was positioned, to improve the bias, indicating a breakthrough and anticipating a further rise in the coming sessions.”
“The index has indicated a higher bottom formation pattern on the daily chart to signify further upward move for next expected targets of 24,800 and 25,200 levels,” said the stock market expert.
“In a similar pattern, the Bank Nifty breached the important barrier of 52,550 to trigger a further rise, having next targets of 53,500 and 54,400 levels visible in the coming days. The index would have the important 50EMA zone of 51,600 as the crucial support, which needs to be sustained for the bias to remain intact,” said Parekh.
Parekh said that the Nifty 50 Spot for today has support at 24,300 points, while the resistance lies at 24,600 points. The Bank Nifty index would have a daily range of 52,200 to 53,300.
