Bank Nifty March Futures (46,550)

Bank Nifty’s strong bounce from the low of 46,022 made on Monday failed to get a strong follow-through rise. After hitting a high of 46,739, it has been coming down. It is currently trading at 46,398, down 0.39 per cent. The advance/decline ratio is 1:11, indicating an inherent weakness.

Bank Nifty index outlook

The resistance around 46,700 is holding very well in line with our expectation. That keeps intact our bearish view of seeing a fall to 45,800-45,600 in the coming sessions.

A sustained rise above 46,700 is needed for the index to get a breather and rise to 47,000 and higher.
