What Monday Told Us

Zinc traded at Rs 412.50 per kg, up 0.46 percent on the 30 October 2026 futures.
Nifty 50 gained 0.60 percent, recovering part of Thursday’s sell-off.
India VIX edged up 1.59 percent to 14.69, still elevated.

Levels in Focus for Tomorrow

Zinc traded between 407.10 and 412.95 on Monday, against a previous close of 410.60. Holding above 410.60 would be the first sign that Monday’s move is sticking, while a fresh break below 407.10 would put the day’s low back in play. Univest’s analysts treat these as reference points drawn from Monday’s trading range, not as targets.

Zinc Prediction for Tomorrow: Key Levels

Univest’s desk is watching whether zinc can extend Monday’s firm tone into 6 October 2026. A sustained move in crude oil prices and the US Dollar Index overnight will be the main swing factor, since both influence MCX pricing directly.

Key Drivers for Tomorrow

Crude oil fell 1.83 percent on MCX, giving back part of last week’s gains even as Indian equities recovered.
Indian equities bounced, with the Nifty 50 up 0.60 percent and Sensex up 0.66 percent, though India VIX still edged up 1.59 percent to 14.69, a sign that nervousness has not fully cleared after Thursday’s sell-off.
Movement in the US Dollar Index, which typically has an inverse relationship with metal and bullion prices on MCX.

As with any zinc prediction for tomorrow, the opening minutes of Tuesday’s trade will confirm or challenge the levels discussed here.
