"Monday's low of 19,257 could now be considered as a new lower bottom of the sequence. Hence any attempt of upside bounce from here could find strong resistance at 19,600 levels (down-sloping trend line). Immediate support is placed at 19,250," said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities

Nifty Outlook

“After falling for three consecutive weeks, Bank Nifty has reached the 20-week moving average (43,880) which can restrict a sharp decline from hereon. The daily and hourly momentum indicators are providing divergent signals. Thus, under such a situation a consolidation is highly likely. However, the overall trend is still negative, and we expect levels of 43,500 from a short-term perspective," said Jatin Gedia – Technical Research Analyst at Sharekhan by BNP Paribas
