Nifty has dipped below its previous swing high on the daily chart, indicating a decline in bullish sentiment. Following a period of consolidation, the index experienced a correction, which could be considered an early indication of a bearish reversal.
Additionally, a negative crossover is evident on the daily RSI (relative strength index). In the short term, it is probable that the Nifty will fall towards the 19,700-19,630 range. Selling on rallies might remain a favourable strategy as long as the index remains below the 20,000 mark.
Meanwhile, the Bank Nifty index faced negative news related to HDFC Bank, which had a detrimental impact on the index's performance. As a result, selling pressure was observed throughout the trading day. The index breached the key support level of 46,000, which has now turned into a resistance level on the upside.
To resume the upward momentum, the index would need to close above this newly established resistance. The immediate downside support for the Bank Nifty stands at 45,300. This level is critical, and a break below it is expected to trigger further selling pressure in the direction of the 45,000 mark.
