Nifty 50 September Futures (25,925)
Nifty 50 is inching down slowly. The index tested the psychological 26,000 mark on Tuesday but did not get a strong follow-through rise above it. Nifty is currently trading at 25,913, down 0.10 per cent.
The advances/declines ratio is at 10:40. This leaves the chances high for a near-term dip before a fresh rise takes the Nifty above 26,000.
Nifty 50 outlook
On the charts, the intraday picture is weak. Resistance for the Nifty (25,913) is around 26,000. A fall to 25,800 looks likely during the day. The price action thereafter will need a close watch.
If the index manages to rise back from around 25,800, a revisit of 26,000 is possible. That in turn will increase the chances of breaking above 26,000. Such a break can take the Nifty up to 26,200.
But if the Nifty declines below 25,800, the downside can extend up to 25,700. Thereafter a reversal is possible.
