How Friday’s Broader Session Unfolded
The Nifty 50 closed at 25,144.30 on Friday, down 0.61 percent from Thursday’s close of 25,299.35. It opened at 25,209.85, touched a high of 25,246.35, fell to 25,054.40 and finished about 90 points above the low. The Sensex closed at 81,592.45, down 0.39 percent, while the Bank Nifty closed at 61,034.10, down 0.79 percent, after opening at its high of 61,300.55. Nifty Next 50 fell 0.83 percent and the Nifty 500 fell 0.55 percent, while Nifty Midcap 50 was almost flat, down 0.04 percent, so mid-caps held up better than the large-cap benchmark. Nifty Auto fell 1.07 percent and Nifty Metal fell 0.98 percent, while Nifty FMCG was almost flat, down 0.01 percent, and Nifty PSU Bank fell 0.51 percent. India VIX, the market’s fear gauge, fell 5.05 percent to 15.78 from 16.62, after trading between 15.30 and 16.88 during the day. In the options market, the Nifty put-call ratio was approximately 0.83, with call open interest highest at the 25,500 strike and put open interest highest at 25,000, for the 17 November expiry. The trigger for Friday’s moves was not independently confirmed.
Placed against that backdrop, the nifty it prediction for Monday reads Friday’s move in the context of a broader market that closed lower.
Analyst View for Monday
Kunal Singla suggests that Nifty IT needs a recovery toward 32,163.55, the previous close, to improve the tone, with 31,806.30 the first support.
Ankit Jaiswal flags that the index touched 32,387.75 early and gave it all back, so that high is the level that must be cleared to change the tone
Both analysts stress that the nifty it prediction for Monday is a view built on levels and data, not a forecast of returns.
A fair reading of this nifty it prediction for Monday is that Friday’s data sets the context, while Monday’s first hour decides how much of it carries forward.
