After five days of falling, India’s main stock indexes bounced back sharply on Monday, driven by value buying and hopes of a smoother US‑India trade outlook.
Market Bounce Back
The 30‑stock Sensex fell to an intraday low of 82,861 but quickly recovered to close at 83,878.17, up 302 points (0.36%). The broader Nifty 50 also rose, gaining 107 points to end at 25,790.25.
Nifty 50 Outlook
The Nifty opened flat, slipped in the first half, then surged about 330 points in the afternoon. It broke above the 25,750 resistance level and finished at 25,790.25.
- Immediate resistance: 25,950‑26,000
- Key support: 25,650‑25,700
- Trading range: Heavy put writing at 25,700 and strong call writing at 26,000 suggest the index will stay within this band for now.
As long as the Nifty stays above 25,600, a cautious “buy on dips” approach can work, but stop‑loss orders should be placed around 25,500.
Bank Nifty Outlook
Bank Nifty also opened flat, fell to a low of 58,864, then rebounded by roughly 676 points. The index now sits near 59,500.
- Immediate resistance: 59,800‑59,900
- Key support: 59,200‑59,300
- Momentum: RSI at 51.4 and trending higher, indicating growing bullish strength.
Traders can keep a bullish bias and look for buying opportunities near the support zone, using tight stop‑losses to protect against larger drops.
