Bank Nifty outlook

The outlook is bullish. Bank Nifty index (51,860) will have good intraday support at 51,500. It can rise to 52,200-52,250 during the day. The upside can extend even up to 52,500-52,700 in the next few days.

The outlook will turn negative only if the Bank Nifty index declines below 51,500. If that happens, a fall to 51,000 can be seen.

The Bank Nifty July Futures (51,865) contract is up 1.1 per cent. Immediate resistance is at 52,000. A break above it can take the contract up to 52,200 and even 52,500.

Failure to breach 52,000 and a subsequent fall below 51,800 will turn the near-term outlook negative. In that case, the Bank Nifty July Futures contract can fall to 51,400 and even lower.
