Technical View

“Rotational buying across key sectors supported a positive market sentiment, yet without clear conviction. Therefore, we advise continuing a strategy of “buying on dips” in the index and placing emphasis on selective stock picks based on sectoral or thematic factors. Banking has reached new highs and is anticipated to sustain momentum, while renewed interest in IT is expected following recent consolidation,” said Ajit Mishra, Senior Vice President of Research at Religare Broking. 

Bank Nifty Outlook

On Wednesday, the Bank Nifty was an outperforming sector and it was also one of the leading sectors, especially private banks, which were responsible for taking the Nifty higher. “On expected lines, Bank Nifty tested our target level of 51,100 marks. We believe that the rally in the Bank Nifty is likely to continue and it can test the next psychological resistance level of 52,000 on the higher side. On the downside, the support zone lies at 51,100 / 50,400-500 while the resistance is seen at 51,950-52,000 / 52,350,” said Tejas Shah, Technical Research, JM Financial & BlinkX.

Scalpers aim to take advantage of these small price changes by entering and exiting positions rapidly. Scalping requires a high degree of precision, quick decision-making, and discipline. It also typically involves using leverage to amplify potential gains from small price movements. However, it is important to note that scalping can be very risky due to the high frequency of trades and the potential for significant losses if the market moves against the trader. Scalping is more suitable for experienced traders who can react quickly to market changes and have a good underst...
