This zone typically acts as a bullish reversal point in a strong uptrend. If the weakness extends further, the next significant support is placed at 25,700, marked by the rising trendline.
Shrikant Chouhan, head of equity research at Kotak Securities, views the 26,000–26,050 zone as a key resistance area. As long as the market trades below this, weak sentiment is likely to persist. Immediate downside support for bulls is seen at 25,800, below which the market could slip toward 25,675.
The Bank Nifty formed a small bearish candle, consolidating above its recent range breakout area of 57,300 to 58,500. Bajaj Broking maintains a positive bias, expecting the index to retain momentum and move towards the 59,800 level in the coming weeks. The 58,200 to 58,000 zone is expected to act as a crucial support area.
