Bank Nifty futures
Bank Nifty futures (November expiry) opened today’s session with a gap-up at 43,867.95 versus Friday’s close of 43,805.55. It is currently trading at 43,870, up 0.15 per cent.
The contract continues to trade within the price band of 43,400-44,000. So, there is no clarity in the next leg of trend now.
If Bank Nifty futures break out of 44,000, it can rally to 44,300 or even to 44,500. On the other hand, if it falls below 43,400, we can see the price moderating to 43,000, a support. Subsequent support is at 42,500.
Trading strategy
Since Bank Nifty futures continue to chart a sideways trend, we suggest staying out of market. Traders can initiate fresh positions along the direction of the break of the range 43,400-44,000.
Supports: 43,400 and 43,000
Resistance: 44,000 and 44,300
