Bank Nifty prediction today – Dec 17, 2024: Volatile. Stay out of the market

Bank Nifty December futures (53,320)

Bank Nifty index has declined sharply below the key support level of 53,200. It is currently trading at 53,120, down 0.86 per cent. All the twelve stock in the index are in red.

Bank Nifty outlook

Bank Nifty index tumbled to a low of 52,950 and then has recovered well from there. Intraday resistance will be in the 53,300-53,350 region. The index has to rise above 53,350 in order to turn the outlook positive again. Only then the doors will open again to revisit 53,600 levels.

Failure to rise past 53,300 and a fall below 53,00 again can drag the index down to 52,700 in the coming sessions.
