Banking Index Stays Range-Bound Amid Ongoing Consolidation -Religare Broking Ltd
NIFTY
* Nifty witnessed another volatile session on Wednesday, with benchmark indices ending marginally higher amid mixed signals.
* Technically, the Nifty continues to trade below the crucial resistance zone of 23,800–24,000, indicating that the broader undertone remains cautious.
* However, rotational buying in select heavyweight stocks across sectors is helping limit the downside, with the index finding support in the 23,250–23,400 zone so far.
* Meanwhile, we continue to recommend a sector-specific trading approach with a strong emphasis on overnight risk management.
