Bank Nifty index is getting good support around 50,950. But at the same time, the index is not getting strong buyers to take it above 51,400 decisively. The index has been in a range of 50,950 and 51,420 over the last couple of days. Within this range, it is currently trading at 51,150, up 0.28 per cent. The advances/declines ratio is at 9:3.

Bank Nifty outlook

The immediate outlook is unclear. A breakout on either side of 50,950 or 51,420 will determine the next move.

A break below 50,950 will be bearish to see a fall to 50,800 first. A break below 50,800 can then drag it down to 50,500

A decisive break above 51,420 is needed to gain bullish momentum. Such a break can take the Bank Nifty index up to 51,600 and 51,800.
