Markets Ahead

Markets are at important long-term support zones: 19,300 for Nifty and 44,200-500 zones in Bank Nifty. If there’s global positivity and a breakout on the upside, we can expect the markets to move further up!

Nifty: The important support zone for Nifty is clearly 19,300 (but the immediate support can be 19,400). The next resistance level to watch out for is 19,500 zones. A breakout from 19,520 levels can give us targets of 19,600 and 19,730 levels in the coming week. A breakdown can give us targets of 19,300 and then eventually 18,900 in the coming weeks.

Bank Nifty: The major support in Bank Nifty is a larger zone between 44,200-500. The important resistance will be 45,000. A breakdown from the support zone can give us a target of 43,000. A breakout on the upper side can give us targets of 45,300 and 45,750 in the coming week.

Markets had a bearish week. But if there’s a follow-up, it can turn into major bearishness for a few months. If support is taken at the levels mentioned above, the markets can bounce back!

Meanwhile, reports say the U.S. jobs report on Friday will help the Federal Reserve understand how its changes in monetary policy are affecting things. It could also tell the Fed if the U.S. economy is slowing down enough to skip another increase in interest rates.
