Market Overview and Key Indicators
The Nifty 50 bulls seem to be in a favorable position as long as the index remains above the 20- and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), which align with the 23,800 level. However, momentum indicators suggest that bullish momentum is weakening. If there's a bounce-back, the index may face resistance in the 24,000-24,100 range. On the other hand, support is placed at 23,800, as a fall below this level could shift the balance in favor of the bears. The overall trading range for the index is expected to stay within 23,800-24,200.
Meanwhile, the Bank Nifty's overall trend remains positive despite profit booking and consolidation over the past two days. For further upside, the banking index needs to move back above the 58,000 zone towards the previous week's high of 58,700. The 57,000 level can act as immediate support, according to experts.
On June 30, the Nifty 50 slipped 81 points (0.34 percent) to 23,866, while the Bank Nifty dropped 184 points (0.32 percent) to 57,543. Despite this, market breadth turned in favor of the bulls, with about 1,634 shares advancing against 1,357 declining shares on the NSE.
Nifty Outlook and Strategy
Ashish Kyal, Founder and CEO of Waves Strategy Advisors
On the daily chart, Nifty remains in a consolidation phase after correcting more than 400 points from last week's high. The decline began after the index faced resistance near the 100-day EMA around the 24,200 level. Throughout June, every attempt to sustain above this key EMA attracted fresh selling, reinforcing it as a strong overhead resistance.
Currently, Nifty continues to trade within a broader range of 23,820–24,200, reflecting the ongoing lack of directional conviction. The absence of fresh domestic or global triggers has kept market participants cautious. However, the finalization of the India-US trade deal could act as a positive catalyst and trigger fresh buying interest.
The Nifty trend remains range-bound. Traders should avoid taking aggressive directional positions unless Nifty breaks out of the 23,820–24,200 range.
Key Resistance: 24,200
Key Support: 23,820
Strategy: Long positions can be created in Nifty Futures if the index breaks above 23,980, with a stop-loss at 23,860 and targets of 24,100, followed by 24,200.

The Nifty spot managed to close above the important 23,800 mark at 23,865, although the index touched an intraday low of 23,829, indicating continued selling interest at higher levels. Market breadth remained slightly weak, suggesting selective participation and signaling the need for a cautious approach towards fresh long positions.
From a technical perspective, the RSI is currently positioned at 51.69, indicating neutral-to-slightly positive momentum. However, the index's close below its 10-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) points towards a possible range-bound structure in the near term. Recent profit booking was observed near the key resistance zone of 24,230–24,250, suggesting that crossing and sustaining above 24,250 on a weekly basis could remain challenging unless stronger buying momentum emerges.
The overall structure is currently neutral and favors a buy-on-dips approach rather than aggressively chasing the index at higher levels.
Key Resistance: 24,100, 24,220, 24,325
Key Support: 23,740, 23,557
Strategy: Buy Nifty Futures in the 23,900–24,000 range, with a stop-loss below 23,700 and targets of 24,220, 24,300, and 24,450.

We retain a cautious-to-negative stance on Nifty in the near term. The index is encountering stiff resistance in the vicinity of 24,200, a zone that also coincides with its 100-day EMA. Fresh selling pressure is evident at this level.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has turned down from the 63 mark, and according to range-rule theory, this places the index in overbought territory within an otherwise bearish structure, reinforcing our negative bias.
Key Resistance: 24,250, 24,600
Key Support: 23,800, 23,500
Strategy: Sell Nifty Futures in the 23,900–24,000 zone, with a stop-loss at 24,200 and a target of 23,300.
Bank Nifty - Outlook and Positioning
Ashish Kyal, Founder and CEO of Waves Strategy Advisors
Bank Nifty is taking a breather after its sharp rally and notable outperformance during the first half of June 2026. Over the last two trading sessions, the index has struggled to close above the previous day's high, indicating that bullish momentum has eased in the near term. The ongoing profit booking has largely been led by PSU banks, with Canara Bank and Bank of Baroda emerging as among the biggest laggards.
Despite this short-term weakness, the broader trend remains positive. As long as Bank Nifty sustains above the 57,000 mark, the current decline should be viewed as a healthy phase of profit booking and consolidation following the recent strong rally, rather than the beginning of a larger trend reversal.
A decisive breach below the 57,000 level would be the first indication of a short-term top formation, opening the door for a deeper corrective phase. On the upside, a sustained move above 58,000 is essential to revive fresh buying interest.
Key Resistance: 58,000
Key Support: 57,000
Strategy: Short positions in Bank Nifty Futures can be created below 57,450, with a stop-loss at 57,700 and targets of 57,200, followed by 57,000.

The structure indicates the possibility of short-term consolidation or range-bound movement in Bank Nifty in the coming sessions. Despite the near-term weakness, the broader technical structure remains constructive and continues to support a bullish undertone. The index is trading comfortably above its key short- to medium-term moving averages—the 10-day, 20-day, and 50-day DMAs—highlighting the continuation of the prevailing uptrend and underlying market strength.
The daily RSI is placed at 54.69, reflecting sustained positive momentum and indicating that the trend remains strong without entering overbought territory.
As long as Bank Nifty sustains above the crucial 56,200 support zone, the overall bias is expected to remain positive. Stability above this level may encourage fresh buying interest and could lead the index towards 58,200 and 58,500 in the near term. A decisive breakout above these resistance levels, accompanied by strong volumes, may further strengthen bullish momentum and open the path towards higher targets.
Key Resistance: 58,300, 58,600, 58,994
Key Support: 57,260, 56,960, 56,500
Strategy: A buy-on-dips approach is advised. Buy Bank Nifty Futures in the 57,700–58,000 range, with a stop-loss below 56,800 (strictly on a closing basis), and targets of 58,440, 58,700, and 58,950.

Bank Nifty is reacting from resistance at the 58,700 level, while the Nifty Private Bank index is facing selling pressure near 28,550. The PSU Bank index has breached an immediate rising trendline, a development that we interpret as indicative of building weakness within the segment.
However, we view the current weakness across financial indices as tactical rather than structural and would refrain from calling this the start of a deeper downtrend at this stage.
Key Resistance: 58,400, 59,000
Key Support: 57,000, 55,560
