In the F&O segment, Univest's analysts suggest watching open-interest changes near the support and resistance levels above before drawing conclusions. India VIX rose 0.96 percent to 15.83 on Thursday, so option swings may stay on the wider side tomorrow.

Univest's analysts suggest treating this nifty metal prediction for tomorrow as a preparation note for Friday, 23 October 2026, rather than a signal that changes overnight.

How Thursday's Broader Session Unfolded

The Nifty 50 closed at 22,687.65, down 0.54 percent, with a high of 22,785.00 and a low of 22,554.85.

India VIX, the market's fear gauge, rose 0.96 percent to 15.83, which keeps expected swings in the near term on the wider side. The Nifty 50 has now fallen about 2 percent from last Friday's close of 23,146.15, with Thursday adding to Wednesday's 0.34 percent decline. Nifty FMCG fell 1.41 percent and Nifty IT fell 1.05 percent, while Nifty Pharma rose 0.12 percent. The trigger for the broad fall was not independently confirmed.

Analyst View for Tomorrow

Kunal Singla suggests that the sector needs to reclaim 11,859.55, the previous close, to improve the tone, with 11,591.25 the support to watch.

Ankit Jaiswal flags that MCX copper and silver fell sharply, so a recovery in metals would be the first confirmation.

A fair reading of this nifty metal prediction for tomorrow is that Thursday's data sets the context, while Friday's first hour decides how much of it carries forward.
