The contract surpassing 50,100 is a bullish sign and there is a good chance for Nifty Bank futures to rally to 51,000.
However, before that, the contract might see a corrective decline, probably to 50,400 from the current level of 50,560.
In case Nifty Bank futures slip below 50,400, it can extend the downswing to 50,300 and then possibly to 50,100, key support levels.
Buy Nifty Bank futures if it dips to 50,400. Target and stop-loss can be 51,000 and 50,100 respectively.
Supports: 50,400 and 50,300
Resistance: 51,000 and 51,200
