Back home, the domestic market ended in the green for the fourth straight session on Monday, aided by improving investor sentiment, a revival in monsoon activity and continued buying by foreign institutional investors (FIIs).

The BSE Sensex rose 521.16 points (0.67%) to settle at 78,285.07, while the Nifty 50 gained 159.50 points (0.66%) to close at 24,430.35.

Nifty 50 Outlook

Nifty 50 has decisively broken above the key resistance zone of 24,200, and today’s move above the 200 DEMA near 24,220 further strengthens the bullish setup. With the index now trading above its 20, 50, 100, and 200 DEMAs, the trend appears positive across time frames. Support at 24,200 can now be viewed as a fresh buy-on-dips zone, while 24,000 remains the positional stop-loss for long trades. On the upside, Nifty 50 may head toward 24,631, which aligns with the 61.8% Fibonacci extension, followed by 24,865 near the 200-day SMA. Weekly and monthly indicators also continue to reflect underlying strength.
