Nifty 50 fell 0.88% to 22,421.95. India VIX spiked 7.64% to 14.52. Markets shut Friday for Gandhi Jayanti, plus the weekend.<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#F0F9FF;border-left:4px solid #2E7D32;border-radius:6px;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0;color:#1F4E79;font-size:14px;\"><strong>Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 0;\">This copper prediction for monday leans soft into Monday&#8217;s session, as the metal eased today, broadly in line with the sharp 2.35 percent fall in Nifty Metal. Since Indian markets are shut Friday for Gandhi Jayanti and through the weekend, Thursday&#8217;s close remains the last available data. Traders should treat the levels below as a working framework rather than a fixed call.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>This copper prediction for monday follows a Thursday, 1 October 2026 session in which broader equity markets sold off sharply, with Nifty 50 falling 0.88 percent to 22,421.95 as India VIX spiked 7.64 percent to 14.52, its sharpest single-day jump since late September, as broad-based selling hit most sectors, with Nifty Auto and Nifty Metal the worst hit even as Nifty IT bucked the trend entirely and rallied.<\/p>\n<p>This copper prediction for monday should be read alongside the support and resistance levels detailed above.<\/p>\n<p>Univest&#8217;s research desk, led by Ankit Jaiswal and Kunal Singla, is tracking global cues over the long weekend for this copper prediction for monday, since commodity prices on MCX often move in step with international benchmarks and the US Dollar Index.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a
