Nifty 50 June Futures (10,376)
Taking positive cues from the global markets, the domestic equity indices started the session with a gap-up open. The US markets advanced in the last session; the Dow Jones climbed 0.6 per cent to 26,024 and S&P 500 Index had gained 0.65 per cent to 3,117 levels. The Nikkei 225 indexrallied 0.5 per cent to 22,549 and Hang Seng Index has surged 1 per cent to 24,750 levels in today's session. The Sensex and Nifty climbed 0.7 per cent each, so far. The market breadth of the Nifty index is biased towards advances. The India VIX has rallied 1.5 per cent to 30.9 levels. All the sectoral indices are hovering in the positive territory. Nifty PSU Bank index is the top gainer that has jumped 3.2 per cent.
The Nifty June month contract began the session with a gap-up open at 10,328. Following an initial decline, the contract marked an intra-day low at 10,282 and resumed the up-move. The contract thereafter breached the key resistance at 10,300 and continued to trend upwards. It has an immediate resistance at 10,400. A strong break above this barrier will take the contract higher to 10,425 and 10,450 levels. Immediate supports are at 10,350 and 10,330. As long as the contract trades above 10,300 the near term outlook will remain positive. Traders can make use of intra-day dips to buy the contract with a stop-loss at 10,320. On the downside, if the contract tumbles below 10,300 can bring back selling interest and pull the contract down to 10,280 and 10,250 levels.
Strategy: Buy in declines with a stop-loss at 10,320 levels
Supports: 10,330 and 10,300

A letter from the Editor
Dear Readers,
The coronavirus crisis has changed the world completely in the last few months. All of us have been locked into our homes, economic activity has come to a near standstill. Everyone has been impacted.
Including your favourite business and financial newspaper. Our printing and distribution chains have been severely disrupted across the country, leaving readers without access to newspapers. Newspaper delivery agents have also been unable to service their customers because of multiple restrictions.
In these difficult times, we, at BusinessLine have been working continuously every day so that you are informed about all the developments – whether on the pandemic, on policy responses, or the impact on the world of business and finance. Our team has been working round the clock to keep track of developments so that you – the reader – gets accurate information and actionable insights so that you can protect your jobs, businesses, finances and investments.
We are trying our best to ensure the newspaper reaches your hands every day. We have also ensured that even if your paper is not delivered, you can access BusinessLine in the e-paper format – just as it appears in print. Our website and apps too, are updated every minute, so that you can access the information you want anywhere, anytime.
But all this comes at a heavy cost. As you are aware, the lockdowns have wiped out almost all our entire revenue stream. Sustaining our quality journalism has become extremely challenging. That we have managed so far is thanks to your support. I thank all our subscribers – print and digital – for your support.
I appeal to all or readers to help us navigate these challenging times and help sustain one of the truly independent and credible voices in the world of Indian journalism. Doing so is easy. You can help us enormously simply by subscribing to our digital or e-paper editions. We offer several affordable subscription plans for our website, which includes Portfolio, our investment advisory section that offers rich investment advice from our highly qualified, in-house Research Bureau, the only such team in the Indian newspaper industry.
