Technical view: Outlook on Bank Nifty
Analyst: Jayesh Bhanushali, Sr. Derivative & Technical Research Analyst
The Bank Nifty index has witnessed a strong selloff during the last five trading sessions and has entered a lower top lower bottom chart structure on the daily timeframe for the first time since September 2020, indicating a negative bias. The index future has witnessed an addition of short positions as the underlying price trends lower along with a rise in the open interest. We expect the index to continue to trade with a negative bias and test our immediate target price of 33,500 during the March series.
