In a resilient recovery, the Nifty index closed with a notable 0.59 percent uptick at at 21,743 on February 13, a day after a major sell-off. The rebound received substantial support from heavyweight Reliance Industries, propelling the index to a 52-week high of Rs 2,958, and positive global market trends.
From a technical perspective, the daily chart shows a bullish candle formation, with the ADX (average directional index) and MACD (moving average convergence divergence) indicators maintaining a neutral stance. Caution is recommended in initiating new long positions until the index surpasses the crucial 21,950 levels, representing significant resistance.
Weekly analysis indicates the index hovering below the middle Bollinger band, with potential support identified in the 21,550-21,500 zone.
Bank Nifty concluded the session with a 1.38 percent gain at 45,502. The index consolidated within a narrow range over the last three sessions, with 44,600 as immediate support. A breach of this level may trigger further selling, while surpassing the 46,200-mark could propel the rally toward 47,000. The 50-day simple moving average serves as immediate resistance, and the RSI (relative strength index) at 45 reflects ongoing weakness.

Max Financial Services: Buy | LTP: Rs 979 | Stop-Loss: Rs 930 | Target: Rs 1,060 | Return: 8 percent
