Technical view: Outlook on Nifty Bank
Analyst: Jayesh Bhanushali, Sr. Derivative & Technical Research Analyst
The Nifty Bank index witnessed a huge selloff during the Wednesday’s session and has retraced ~61.8% of its previous up move in just the last four trading sessions. Majority of its constituents have witnessed long unwinding ahead of the January expiry, indicating a negative bias. However, the index is currently trading around its rising trendline support and is expected to bounce back from its oversold territory. We expect the index to hold its immediate base of 30,000 and expire the January series above the mentioned strike price in today’s trading session.
