Market Outlook
Jatin Gedia - Technical Research Analyst at Sharekhan by BNP Paribas said, "The Nifty opened on a flat note and traded with a negative bias to close in the red down ~73 points. On the daily charts, we can observe that the Nifty is retracing the rise from 19303 - 19992. Currently, it is around the 50% Fibonacci retracement level and is expected to attract buying interest. The daily momentum indicator has triggered a negative crossover which is a sell signal. Both price and momentum indicators are indicating weakness. However, we are still of the opinion that this is a dip that should be bought into as the overall uptrend is still intact. In terms of levels, 19600 - 19580 shall act as a crucial support zone, and on the upside 19800 - 19840 shall act as an immediate hurdle zone."

Commenting on Bank Nifty prediction, Jatin Gedia said, "Bank Nifty closed in the red today. It witnessed selling pressure from around 46200 levels and drifted lower. We believe that Bank Nifty is in the process of retracing the rise it has witnessed from 44547 - 46370. On the downside, it can slip towards 45750 - 45670 where support is in the form of the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level and the 40-hour moving average is placed. Overall, the trend is still positive and once this consolidation is complete, we can expect the Bank Nifty to resume its uptrend. On the upside 46500 is the expected target."
