On the outlook for the Nifty 50 today, Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities said, “Nifty is currently placed at the support of ascending trend line around 21,850 levels. The positive chart pattern like higher tops and bottoms remains intact on the daily chart and currently Nifty is in the process of forming a new higher bottom of the sequence. Confirmation by sustainable upside bounce in the subsequent session is required to call this market action a short-term higher-bottom reversal pattern. Immediate support for Nifty today is placed at 21,850 and the next crucial overhead resistances to be watched around 22,200 to 22,300 levels.”

On the outlook for Bank Nifty today, Vaishali Parekh, Vice President — Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher said, “Bank Nifty index also witnessed volatility with support maintained near the 45,700 zone and with a pullback seen managed to reach the 46,300 levels but failed to give a close above the 46,200 levels of the significant 50EMA zone. The overall bias for the index remains weak and would need a decisive breach above the 47,000 zone to improve the bias,” said Parekh.

On the outlook for the Indian stock market today, Rajesh Bhosale, Technical Analyst at Angel One said, “The emergence of a fresh sell signal in the RSI Smoothened indicator, along with its average line, suggests a capped upside. Traders are advised to consider lightening long positions on any rebounds. Furthermore, the resistance zone of 22,100 to 22,200 seems a stiff hurdle for Nifty today. Given the recent surge in volatility, traders should refrain from aggressive overnight positions until market stability returns.”
