Tech View :: 'Nifty, Bank Nifty finding support at lower levels'
Nifty50
On the daily charts, we can observe that dips towards the lower boundary 24,100 are being bought into, suggesting strong support at 24,150 – 24,100 zone. Going ahead, we expect the range bound price action to continue. Ideally dips towards the support zone should be used as a buying opportunity.
Bank Nifty
Bank Nifty's weekly Put-Call Ratio (PCR) improved from 0.67 to 0.81, implying puts being written during the fall today, and thus strong support base being built around 52,000 levels.
Thus, a crucial support base is placed in the zone 52,000 – 51,900 and only a breach below this zone shall lead to further weakness.
Until then the rangebound price action with bullish bias between 53,500 – 52,000 is likely to continue.

Comment :: 'Benchmarks struggling to justify valuations ahead of Q1'
The main indices are trading in a narrow range, struggling to justify their premium valuation ahead of the Q1 earnings season, which is forecast to be subdued.
However, the broader market is exhibiting marginal momentum, led by a shift in FIIs inflow and budget expectations.
Globally, attention is now focused on the US inflation data, which is estimated to moderate and positively influence Fed's interest rate decisions
