post-market analysis | marketfeed

NIFTY started the day flat at 19,457 with a small gap-up of 14 points. There was huge volatility in the first 30 minutes. Later, the index tried moving up but took resistance at the opening levels (19,460) and fell gradually to 19,380 levels. Nifty closed at 19,395, down by 48 points or 0.25%.

Nifty chart November 9 - post-market analysis

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day flat at 43,626. Unlike Nifty, BNF was bullish and moved up more than 300 points to 43,880 levels. Post 12 PM, there was a slow correction till 43,650. BNF closed at 43,683, up by 25 points or 0.06%.

All indices except Nifty Realty (+1.23%) and Nifty Auto (+0.83%) closed flat-to-red. Nifty FMCG (-0.9%) fell the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed (Japan’s Nikkei closed 1.58% in the green). European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

Mahindra & Mahindra (+4.35%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The automaker is expected to report a healthy rise in Q2 earnings, led by robust automobile sales even as weak tractor sales will cap gains.

SPARC (+8.08%) surged on the back of strong volumes. 

Adani Ent (-2%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Shares of MTAR Tech (-11.4%) fell the most since June 2022 after the company posted weak Q2 results. It has also cut revenue, margin guidance for FY24.

KRBL (-8.9%) fell sharply after the company (a top exporter of branded basmati rice) reported a 28.1% YoY drop in Q2 profit as it was hit by weak demand.

Markets Ahead

Bank Nifty is holding the upper levels, while Nifty is looking a bit weak. Both indices are holding their respective resistance zones, as those were the levels from where the indices gave a breakdown. So if the indices can cross major resistances, we could see a clear change in trend in the coming days.

Nifty: The major support to watch out for is near the closing level of 19,380. A breakdown from there could take the index down to 19,320 levels and 19,280 levels eventually. Meanwhile, the index has an important resistance at 19,460 levels. A breakout from there may take the index up to 19,500 and 19,550 levels.

Bank Nifty: The index is respecting a trend line and has formed a triangular pattern. If BNF breaks down from this trendline or 43,500, we could expect a fall to 43,300 and 43,000 levels. On the other hand, a breakout from the 44,000 resistance level might take the index up to 44,500.

After the volatility we’ve experienced, the indices are now staying within a certain range. If this consolidation continues tomorrow, it might be a sign that the markets are gearing up for some bug movement in the upcoming weeks, especially with Diwali and upcoming state assembly elections.

Bulls Take Over Bank Nifty? Nifty Closes Flat Amidst Choppiness – Post-Market Analysis

post-market analysis | marketfeed

NIFTY started the day flat at 19,404. After an initial 60-point fall in the first 5 minutes, the index attempted to recover but didn’t succeed, and fell sharply below the day’s low. Then, Nifty moved down to 19,330 levels, took support there, and moved up back up— breaching the opening levels and the day’s high. Nifty closed at 19,406, down by 5 points or 0.03%.

Nifty chart November 7 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day flat at 43,598. Right after the market opened, the index quickly fell more than 200 points to 43,380 levels. It then made a temporary recovery before again falling to 43,280. Then, the index shot up nearly 520 points to reach the resistance zone of 43,800! BNF closed at 43,737, up by 118 points or 0.27%.

All indices except Nifty Realty (-1.34%), Nifty Media (-0.64%), and Nifty Auto (-0.18%), closed flat-to-green.

Major Asian markets closed in the red. European markets are currently trading up to 1% in the red.

Today’s Moves

Sun Pharma (+1.82%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. Some brokerages have upgraded the stock after the company posted strong Q2 results.

Trent (+8.54%) surged today after reporting an 189% YoY jump in net profit to ₹228 crore in Q2.

Shares of Jyothy Labs (+8.69%) rallied after the FMCG company’s net profit rose 59.1% YoY to ₹103.98 crore in Q2, while revenue was up 11.09% YoY.

Hero MotoCorp (-1.16%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Sobha (-3.68%) fell sharply after the realty firm’s net profit fell 22% YoY to ₹15 crore in Q2 FY24; missing analysts’ estimates.

SEBI has revoked the securities market ban against entities in Lux Industries Ltd’s (-2.4%) insider trading case.

Markets Ahead

Remember when we were talking about the rise in India VIX and the chance of a retracement/pullback? Well, we saw a similar structure in the market today. With the earlier resistance levels now acting as supports, the major indices have moved up with strength, especially Bank Nifty.

Nifty: It’s crucial to keep an eye on the significant resistance at 19,400. If the index manages to break out from that level, it could potentially climb towards the round level of 19,500. On the other hand, there’s strong support for the index at 19,380 levels. If it falls below this point, we might see a decline towards 19,320 and 19,250 levels.

Bank Nifty: The resistance to look for in Bank Nifty is clearly the 43,800-900 zone. If the index manages to surpass these levels, it might make its way up to the round figures of 44,000 and 44,100. Meanwhile, the support to look out for is near 43,600 (the previous swing level). If the index falls below this point, it could potentially slide down to 43,400 and 43,200 levels.

Bank Nifty is testing important breakdown levels (as shown in the chart below). So, a breakout will confirm the change in the trend.

The Indian stock market faced resistance at higher levels and broke its 3-day winning streak today. Negative global news came in as Chinese exports fell more than expected, indicating that global trade is slowing down.

Diwali Rally in Nifty? – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,345 with a gap-up of 115 points (near the 50% Fibonacci rejection levels). After facing initial resistance at 19,380 levels, the index fell to 19,310. The earlier resistance acted as support. Then, Nifty gradually continued the up-move to 19,420 levels. Nifty closed at 19,411, up by 181 points or 0.94%.

Nifty chart November 6 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 43,627 with a big gap-up of 310 points. There was an immediate sell-off to 43,400 levels. But the earlier resistance now acted as support, and the index moved up till the opening levels. BNF closed at 43,619, up by 301 points or 0.7%.

Bank Nifty chart November 6 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices except Nifty PSU Bank (-1.09%) closed in the green. Nifty Metal (+1.36%), Nifty Pharma (+1.28%), and Nifty Realty (+1.2%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed well in the green (Japan’s Nikkei rose nearly 2.3%). European markets are currently trading mixed.

Today’s Moves

Divi’s Labs (+4.6%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer despite reporting a 29% YoY fall in net profit to ₹348 crore in Q2.

Shares of Aarti Industries (+10.7%) surged as investors cheered the management’s positive commentary and improved sequential performance in Q2.

JK Cements (+8.6%) moved up with strength after the cement manufacturer posted robust Q2 results yesterday.

SBI (-0.66%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Krsnaa Diagnostics (-6.04%) fell sharply after the diagnostic company’s net profit declined 32% YoY to ₹10.5 crore in Q2 due to higher operational expenses.

Markets Ahead

The Indian stock market has been showing a consistent pattern lately. It opened with a gap-up and either continued to rise or remained steady for the last three trading sessions. The markets have now closed above significant Fibonacci levels – 50% at 19,300 in Nifty and 43,400 in Bank Nifty.

This suggests a potential shift in the market trend to bullishness. However, there’s a concern regarding the increase in India VIX, which has risen by 2% despite the upward movement. So, it’s important to be cautious in case the market experiences a downturn tomorrow.

Nifty: A breakout from 19,420 may take the index up to 19,500, which will be the next major resistance to watch out. Meanwhile, the immediate support for Nifty is near 19,360 levels. A breakdown from there could take Nifty down to 19,300 and 19,240 levels.

Bank Nifty: The major resistance for BNF is near 43,700 levels. A breakout from there might take the index up to 43,900 and 44,000 levels. On the other hand, the immediate support for the index is near the 43,500 round levels. A breakdown from there may take the index down to 43,300 and 43,000.

Key resistance levels are being breached mainly due to the gap-ups, and we haven’t seen much intraday price action to reach our targets. As long as the market remains above these resistance levels, it may be a good strategy to buy on dips. However, if an unexpected gap-down occurs in the coming days, you may consider selling when the market rises.

Gap-Up and Consolidation! What Next For Nifty? – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,241 with a gap-up of 108 points. For most part of the trading session, the index consolidated in a small range of 40 points between 19,270 and 19,230. Nifty closed at 19,230, up by 97 points or 0.51%.

Nifty chart November 3 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 43,318 with a big gap-up of 301 points. The index also consolidated in a 165-point range between 43,250 and 43,415 levels today. BNF closed at 43,318, up by 301 points or 0.7%.

Bank Nifty chart November 3 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices closed in green. Nifty Realty (+2.54%) and Nifty Media (+1.38%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed in green. European markets are currently trading flat-to-green.

Today’s Moves

Apollo Hospitals (+5.45%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock extended gains for the second day on the back of strong volumes.

Eicher Motors (+2.7%) moved up after the automaker reported a 3% year-on-year rise in sales for October. 

Shares of Adani Ports (+2.73%) rose after the company said it handled 37 million metric tonnes (MMT) of total cargo in October 2023, registering a growth of 48% YoY.

Bajaj Finserv (-2.5%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. Yesterday, Bajaj Finance issued warrants worth ₹1,190 crore to Bajaj Finserv.

Dr Reddy’s Labs (-1.4%) extended losses for the third day.  The fall comes after brokerages maintained a cautious stance on the stock despite the company’s financial recovery in Q2.

Markets Ahead

The major indices opened with a big gap and held their levels. This looks like a clear trap for option sellers from yesterday, as the markets have moved above Thursday’s selling zones. But there are still important resistances that have to be broken for the confirmation of a change in trend (or trend reversal).

Nifty:  The immediate support for the index is near 19,180 levels. A breakdown from there could make the index fall to 19,140 levels. Meanwhile, the immediate resistance is near 19,250. A breakout from there can give us targets of 19,350 on the upside, which is also the 50% Fibonacci retracement level.

Bank Nifty: The immediate support for BNF is near 43,230 levels, and the target to watch out for on the downside is 43,080 (gap-filling levels). On the other hand, the index could face a major resistance near 43,400 levels. A breakout from there might make the index hit 43,800 next.

On a weekly chart, both indices have made a Bullish Harami Pattern. If their respective highs are crossed, we can expect the coming week to be bullish.

Today, a rise in the Asian stock markets lifted market sentiments in India as well, thanks to lower US treasury yields and falling crude oil prices. However, there is still uncertainty due to rising prices, the war in West Asia, and how these factors might affect the global economy.

Flat Nifty Expiry After Surprise Gap Up! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,120 with a gap-up of 130 points. The index continued the up move to 19,175 levels, took resistance there, gave a sharp fall of more than 110 points to 19,065 levels, and moved back up. Nifty closed at 19,133, up by 144 points or 0.76%.

Nifty chart November 2 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 43,018 with a big gap-up of 317 points. The index moved up with a lot of strength till the resistance zone of 43,300 levels. Then, it gave a sharp fall of more than 475 points to 43,250 levels, took support, and moved up slowly. BNF closed at 43,017, up by 316 points or 0.74%.

Bank Nifty chart November 2 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices closed in green. Nifty PSU Bank (+1.5%) and Nifty Metal (+1.4%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed (Japan’s Nikkei rose 1.1%). European markets are currently trading up to 2.5% in the green.

Today’s Moves

Britannia Industries (+2.96%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The company’s Q2 results beat street estimates.

Triveni Turbine (+9.15%) surged after the company reported its highest-ever revenue and EBITDA in Q2 FY24.

Vodafone Idea (+7.42%) moved up after HDFC Bank extended a loan of ₹2,000 crore to help the telco address its pending license fees and fulfil 5G spectrum payment commitments.

Hero MotoCorp (-1.3%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. Profit booking kicked in after the two-wheeler manufacturer reported strong sales data and Q2 numbers.

Shares of Syrma SGS (-12.24%) fell sharply after the company reported weak July-September quarter (Q2) results.

Markets Ahead

When markets opened with a big gap today, it trapped all options sellers from yesterday.  When such gaps are formed, and sellers are trapped, we ideally see a short covering rally on the upside. But after a small up-move, the major indices took resistance, gave a sharp fall, and consolidated. So, there is indecision in the markets, which we can also understand from today’s closing candle.

Nifty: The immediate support for the index is near the 19,100 level. If Nifty breaches that level, it could fall and test 19,050 and 19,000 eventually. Meanwhile, the major resistance to watch out for is 19,175 levels (today’s high). If that is taken out, we can expect targets of 19,200 and 19,250.

Bank Nifty: The immediate support to watch out for is near 42,800 levels. A breakdown from there can give us targets of 42,400 and 42,200. On the other hand, the immediate resistance is near 43,100 levels. A breakout from there might give us targets of 43,300 and 43,500.

Yesterday, the US Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) held interest rates steady at a 22-year high of 5.25-5.50% for the second time in a row. The US economy remains resilient despite high interest rates, while inflation still remains above the US Federal Reserve’s 2% target level. Meanwhile, the Bank of England holds rates at 5.25% and rules out quick rate cuts to help its economy.

It was a confusing and volatile expiry for Nifty! We hope you managed your positions well! Let us know how the weekly expiry went in the comments below!

Bank Nifty chart November 1 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices except Nifty Realty (+1.5%), Nifty Media (+0.88%), Nifty Pharma (+0.35%), and Nifty PSU Bank (+0.32%) closed in the red. Nifty Metal (-1.4%) fell the most.

Major Asian markets closed flat-to-green (Japan’s Nikkei rose 2.4%). European markets are currently trading mixed.

Today’s Moves

Sun Pharma (+2.54%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The company posted a 5% year-on-year (YoY) rise in net profit to ₹2,375.51 crore in Q2; beating estimates.

Shares of Blue Star (+5.6%) moved up after the company reported robust Q2 results, aided by a strong order book and a rise in demand for air conditioners.

Vodafone Idea (+8.02%) hit a 21-month high of ₹13.54 on hopes of equity infusion by December.

Adani Enterprises (-3.3%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Jindal Steel (-7.69%) fell sharply despite posting good Q2 results yesterday.

Markets Ahead

As discussed yesterday, the rise in India Vix, overall selling pressure, and rejection from Fibonacci levels, along with a flat opening, pulled the markets down.

Nifty: The immediate resistance to watch out for in Nifty is 19,030. The index has important support at 18,940 levels. If the index breaches the resistance on the upside, the index could move up to 19,100 and 19,140 levels. But if there’s a flat opening tomorrow and the movement continues, 18,940 may be the first target, followed by 18,850 levels.

Bank Nifty: The index is now in a clear range. A breakout from this range of 42,760 might take the index up to 43,000 and 43,350 levels. Meanwhile, a breakdown from 42,600 may take the index down to 42,400 and 42,150.

As it was the weekly Bank Nifty expiry today, option sellers would’ve found it quite easy since the index consolidated. Option scalpers also had decent opportunities as the index was volatile within a range.

Meanwhile, RBI governor Shaktikanta Das said that GDP growth for the second quarter of FY24 is likely to surpass expectations based on early indicators. RBI had projected a GDP growth of 6.5% for Q2, which aligns with the full-year growth forecast for FY24.

Rejection from the Top! More Fall Incoming? – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,232 with a gap-up of 92 points. There was an immediate sell-off till the previous swing or support zones of 19,100. Then, Nifty consolidated with a bit of volatility and gave a negative closing at 19,079, down by 61 points or 0.32%.

Nifty chart October 31 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 43,356 with a gap-up of 317 points (near the 50% Fibonacci rejection levels). It quickly came under selling pressure and fell to yesterday’s breakout levels of 42,800. Then, the index tried moving up but 43,000 round levels acted as resistance and pushed the index down. BNF closed at 42,845, down by 193 points or 0.45%.

Bank Nifty chart October 31 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices except Nifty Realty (+1.27%), Nifty Media (+0.91%), Nifty FMCG (+0.19%), and Nifty PSU Bank (+0.14%) closed in the red.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading up to 1.4% in the green.

Today’s Moves

SBI Life (+3.14%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock has been moving up after the company reported strong Q2 earnings; a 45% YoY rise in its net profit and a 19% growth in net premium income.

FACT (+10%) surged on the back of long volumes.

Piramal Pharma (+9.48%) rallied up to 13% on positive guidance for the second half of FY24.

Mahindra & Mahindra (-2.62%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. Shares of the company’s subsidiary, M&M Financial Services, have tanked on the back of poor Q2 results.

DCM Shriram (-4.8%) fell sharply after the company posted weak Q2 results today.

Shares of Butterfly Gandhimathi (-7.04%) fell after public shareholders of the company voted against its merger with Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals.

Markets Ahead

As discussed earlier, major indices are taking proper rejection from Fibonacci levels. The rise in India Vix and selling pressure from the top is indicating some bearishness in the markets. So even if today’s lows are breached, markets can fall further. The up-move in the last two trading sessions (Friday and Monday) can be considered a retracement.

Nifty: The immediate support for the index is near 19,075 (where the markets closed today). If there’s a flat or gap down opening, the index could move down— giving us targets of 19,000 and 18,940 again. On the other hand, the important resistance to watch out for will be today’s high of 19,250. If the index crosses 19,150, we can expect Nifty to test 19,250 again.

Bank Nifty: The index is looking weak. BNF is currently at yesterday’s breakout levels of 42,800. If there is a flat or gap down opening tomorrow, BNF could achieve targets of 42,400 and 42,200 on the downside. If the resistance at 43,075 is taken out, 43,300 can be tested again.

Markets are facing rejections at the top. The rise in India Vix also indicates the markets to be bearish. So you could look for sell-on-rise opportunities, which will be ideal till major resistance zones are breached in Nifty and Bank Nifty.

Bank Nifty chart October 30 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices except Nifty Auto (-0.9%) and Nifty FMCG (-0.42%) closed flat-to-green.

Major Asian markets closed mixed (Japan’s Nikkei fell 0.95%). European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

BPCL (+3.57%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The company reported a net profit of ₹8,243.55 crore for Q2 FY24 as marketing margins improved.

Shares of Vodafone Idea (+6.8%) rallied over 8% to a two-week high ahead of its quarterly earnings call. On Friday, the telco said it will make significant investments to roll out 5G network and expand 4G coverage.

Supreme Industries (+7.4%) reported strong Q2 financial performance.

UPL (-3.58%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The company reported a net loss of ₹189 crore for Q2 and cut FY24 revenue & EBITDA guidance.

SBI Cards (-5.07%) fell sharply over 7% after most market analysts cut its FY24 earnings estimate. 

Markets Ahead

The Indian stock markets have been volatile lately. Today, we witnessed a sharp fall followed by a recovery. We can see that buyers are trying to support the markets, but there are major resistance levels ahead that have to be taken out for the markets to turn bullish again.

Nifty: The immediate resistance for Nifty is near 19,160 levels. If that is breached, the index may move up to the 19,240 resistance level. Meanwhile, a breakdown from the previous swing support of 19,090 could bring the index down to 19,000 and 18,950 levels, which would indicate major bearishness again.

Bank Nifty: The immediate resistance for BNF is near 43,050. A breakout from this level might take the index up to 43,350. On the other hand, the immediate support to watch out is near the previous swing of 42,900. A breakdown from there could bring the index back to 42,700 and 42,400.

Both indices are near their respective Fibonacci rejection levels. So if there’s a negative price action tomorrow, the index can turn bearish again. For a bullish reversal, 50% fib rejection levels of 43,350 in Bank Nifty and 19,350 in Nifty have to be crossed.

Market sentiment remains cautious in the short term, with investors closely monitoring geopolitical tensions in West Asia, upcoming corporate earnings, and key economic data, (including PMI figures for October).

post-market analysis | marketfeed

NIFTY started the day at 18,928 with a gap-up of 71 points (above the resistance level of 18,900). The index continued to move up 150 points by crossing the key resistance of 19,000 round levels till Wednesday’s low of 19,080 levels. Nifty closed at 19,047, up by 190 points or 1.01%.

BNF gradually continued the up-move till Wednesday’s closing levels of 42,840 levels— making a nearly 360-point intraday movement on the upside! BNF closed at 42,782, up by 501 points or 1.19%.

Bank Nifty chart October 27 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All major indices closed in the green. Nifty PSU Bank (+4.1%), Nifty Media (+2.58%), and Nifty Realty (+1.95%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed well in the green. France’s CAC40 is currently trading in the red, while the UK’s FTSE100 and Germany’s DAX are trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

Axis Bank (+3.16%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer for the second day in a row. The lender reported robust Q2 FY24 results on Wednesday.

Jubilant Pharmova (+16.9%) surged on the back of strong volumes. The pharma company will post its Q2 results today.

Sterlite Tech (-9.25%) fell sharply after the company reported a 59% YoY decline in net profit to ₹28 crore in Q2.

Shares of Westlife Food (-6.7%) fell after the QSR operator posted mixed Q2 earnings.

Markets Ahead

After the continuous selling pressure over the last six trading days, the Indian markets retraced a bit today. Major indices moved back up from good support zones, but this doesn’t confirm or guarantee the change in the trend. It can just be a retracement, and markets can continue to fall in the upcoming days if yesterday’s low levels are breached!

Nifty: The index is currently taking resistance from the 23% Fibonacci retracement levels. The immediate resistance to watch out will be at 19,080 levels. A breakout from these levels can take Nifty up to 38% retracement levels at 19,250 and 50% retracement levels at 19,350. Meanwhile, the supports to watch out for are near 19,000 and 18,900 levels. A breakdown from there can take the index further down to 18,650 levels.

The trend can change only if Nifty crosses the 50% retracement level.

Bank Nifty: The index is also near its 23% fib retracement level of 43,100. That level can act as immediate resistance. On the other hand, 42,600 can act as immediate support and there’s a major support zone at 42,000 round levels. A breakdown from these support zones can take the index down to 40,800 in the coming weeks or months. But if the markets take support and move back up, 38% and 50% fib retracement levels of 43,700 and 44,200, respectively, can be the targets.

Bank Nifty has to cross 44,200 for a trend reversal or change. If not, the selling may continue.

Bank Nifty chart October 26 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All major indices closed in the red. Nifty Metal (-1.6%), Nifty Auto (-1.59%), and FIN NIFTY (-1.57%) fell the most.

Major Asian markets closed in the red (Japan’s Nikkei fell 2.1%). European markets are currently trading up to 1% in the red.

Today’s Moves

Axis Bank (+1.7%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The lender reported a 10% YoY rise in net profit to ₹5,863 crore in Q2; beating street estimates.

Prism Johnson (+12.02%) jumped on the back of strong volumes.

Sonata Software (+8.2%) hit a 52-week high after the IT services provider announced its Q2 FY24 earnings.

Mahindra & Mahindra (-4.06%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. It fell amid huge selling pressure in auto stocks.

Bajaj Finance (-3.54%) and Bajaj Finserv (-3.16%) fell today. Bajaj Finserv Mutual Fund launched its banking and PSU fund today.

Delta Corp (-5.45%) fell sharply after yesterday’s strong up-move. The Bombay High Court provided interim relief to the company by retraining tax notices worth over ₹16,000 crore it received from the Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI).

Markets Ahead

Nifty has fallen for the sixth straight session, its longest losing streak since February 2023! India VIX, a measure of market volatility, jumped by 10% on the monthly F&O  expiry day, signalling a sense of unease in our markets.

As long as Nifty stays below 19,000, we can expect bearish sentiments to continue, possibly reaching levels between 18,800 and 18,725. However, if the index manages to break through the 19,000 mark, there could be a small bounce back, potentially pushing it towards 19,100-19,150.

The Israel-Hamas conflict remains a significant challenge for geopolitical stability, which can impact global stock markets. Elevated US Treasury bond yields are also posing a major threat.

Bank Nifty chart October 25 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All major indices except Nifty PSU Bank (+0.17%) and Nifty Metal (+0.15%) closed in the red. Nifty Media (-1.6%) and Nifty IT (-1.03%) fell the most.

Major Asian markets closed in the green. European markets are currently trading up to 0.4% in the red.

Today’s Moves

Coal India (+1.37%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. ICICI Securities has maintained a ‘Buy’ advisory on the stock and raised its target price from ₹325 to ₹395. 

Welspun India (+11.2%) hit a one-year high after the company posted strong Q2 results on the back of higher demand for home linens.

Amber Enterprises (+6.49%) jumped after several analysts raised the stock’s target price even as the company’s losses for Q2 FY24 widened over last year.

Infosys (-2.7%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The stock turned ex-dividend today.

Shares of Jubilant Pharmova (-7.7%) fell sharply today.

Markets Ahead

Bearishness continues in the Indian market! Nifty and Bank Nifty have broken down major supports. After this fall, the indices might undergo volatility or a small retracement.

Nifty: The important support for the index is near 18,900 levels, which is a bit far from the spot. It is a major target that could be expected in the coming days. The index may retrace a bit in between. Meanwhile, the major resistance will now be 19,200 levels (the earlier support levels). If that level is crossed, the targets could be 19,260 and 19,350.

Bank Nifty: The next major support to consider in BNF is 42,500. The major resistance level to watch out for will be 43,000. If that level is breached, we can expect the index to move up to 43,180 and 43,450 levels. But for a major trend reversal, the index has to cross 43,700.

Major indices have stretched a lot on the downside over the past few days. So a retracement or some profit booking could be seen going forward, which can take the markets up a little. But look for sell-on-rise opportunities only till major resistances are crossed.

Markets Ahead

The Indian stock markets were under severe selling pressure post 2:30 PM today— there was a fall of more than 550 points in Bank Nifty, 200 points in Fin Nifty, and 150 points in Nifty! Now, all these indices are at major long-term support zones. If those supports are breached, we could see more bearishness in the markets.

Nifty: As you can see in the chart below, Nifty is at a very important support zone of 19,200-250 levels. If that level is breached, the index may fall to 18,800 levels. On the other hand, the important hurdle to cross on the upper side would be 19,500 levels.

Bank Nifty: Bank Nifty broke the important support zone near 43,500. Now, the 43,000 round level can still be considered as support. If that level is breached, we could expect a further decline to 42,600 levels. Meanwhile, the important resistance to watch out for will be 43,600 levels.



Our markets fell sharply today after the benchmark 10-year US treasury note rose above 5%. Moreover, deepening conflict in the Middle East has hurt investor sentiments in the overall Asian markets.

The Indian markets will be closed tomorrow (Oct 24) on account of Dussehra!
