Analysts Ankit Jaiswal and Kunal Singla flag 23,100 and 23,000 as support, with 23,200 and 23,300 as resistance. A put-call ratio of 1.33 supports the view, but Monday is also the weekly expiry.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Nifty 50 prediction for Monday begins with a session that ended on a firm note. The index opened at 23,065.10, dipped to 22,913.80, then climbed to 23,149.85 and closed just 3.70 points short of it.<\/p>\n<p>Ankit Jaiswal, Senior Research Analyst at Univest, flags that the weekly options contract expires on Monday, so strikes near 23,150 can pull the index around. Kunal Singla, Associate Director at Univest, suggests watching India VIX, which stayed at 14.06 and shows traders are not rushing to hedge.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><a
