The market is exhibiting strong upside momentum with range bound action in between,” said Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities.

Nifty 50 Prediction

Nifty 50 made an attempt to bounce back from the lows on September 25 and closed the day higher by 63 points above the 26,000-mark.

“The Nifty 50 made another lifetime high as bulls seemed in no mood to back down, despite a weak start. The sentiment is likely to remain positive as long as it remains above 25,900, where aggressive put writing was visible. Technically, the Nifty has sustained above its very short-term moving average. Furthermore, no reversal is visible in the momentum indicator. Therefore, we might witness a range-bound to positive move in the near term. Resistance on the higher end, is seen at 26,200 – 26,250,” said Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst, LKP Securities.

VLA Ambala, Co-Founder of Stock Market Today highlighted that the Nifty 50 index showed RSI of 75 on the weekly and 83 on the monthly timeframe and has a PE ratio of 24, which indicates that the market was overvalued and needed a correction. Meanwhile, the broader market needs strong reasons to adjust its valuation.

“The market looks stable and confident, but I recommend a cautious approach. My analysis suggests that we can witness a market dip in the next 1-2 months. It will create valuable buying opportunities for fresh investments. The market is abounding with liquidity in mutual funds houses, and in this situation, any dip opportunity, particularly “flash dips”, should be encashed,” Ambala said.

She expects the Nifty 50 index could find support levels around 25,960 and 25,910 and notice resistance between 26,070 and 26,190 in today’s session.

Praveen Dwarakanath, Vice President of Hedged.in said that with the Nifty 50 closing above its all-time high and the psychological level of 26,000, it has continued its walk on the band, technically a sign of bullishness.

“However, the Options writer’s data for today’s expiry shows increased calls and put writing at 26,000 levels, indicating a sideways move. For today’s expiry, the intraday support is at 25,930 levels while the 26,000 levels can act as an immediate resistance,” Dwarakanath said.

Bank Nifty Prediction

Bank Nifty index ended 133.05 points, or 0.25%, higher at 54,101.65 on Wednesday, forming a bullish candlestick pattern on the daily charts.

“The daily candle in Bank Nifty closed below the Bollinger band, although a green candle, indicating a weakness in the index at the present levels. On the daily chart, the stochastics is forming a possible negative divergence, indicating no further steam on the upside in the index. Immediate support for the index is at the 53,700 levels, a break of which can trigger 53,000 or even 52,200 levels soon,” said Dwarakanath.

According to him, options writer’s data for the next month’s expiry shows increased calls and put writing at 54,000 levels, indicating a possible halt or reversal from the current levels.
