Nifty 50 August Futures (25,032)
Nifty 50 is broadly staying flat. It fell to a low of 24,973, but then managed to bounce back from there recovering all the loss. It is currently trading at 25,026, up marginally by 0.05 per cent.
The advance/declines ratio is currently at 28:22. Need to see if this sustains and increases in favour of the advances. If it does, then Nifty can rise more from here.
Nifty 50 outlook
Although the Nifty is managing sustain above 25,000, it seems to lack strong follow-through buying. However, the sharp bounce from the low of 24,973 indicates the presence of strong buyers below 25,000. That leaves the outlook bullish.
Support is in the 24,970-24,950 region. Nifty can rise to 25,250 and 25,500 in the coming days.
Nifty has to fall below 24,950 to become bearish. In that case, a fall 24,900 and lower levels is possible. But such a fall looks less likely.
