Trade Outlook for Tuesday
Looking ahead, a decisive move above 24,400 for the Nifty could signal the end of a recent bearish trend, paving the way for potential gains toward the 24,600-24,800 resistance levels. Nagaraj Shetti, a Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities, noted that immediate support is positioned at 24,050.
For the Bank Nifty, surpassing Monday’s high of 55,577 could trigger further upward momentum, possibly reaching targets of 56,200 and 56,800, according to insights from Bajaj Broking.
