Where is Nifty headed? Going ahead, the Nifty continues to trade with a corrective bias and a downward shift in its trading range, reflecting indecisiveness amid mixed domestic and global cues. Immediate support is placed around the 23,150–23,250 zone, followed by the 22,900 mark. On the upside, the 23,800–24,000 zone remains a key hurdle, and a decisive breakout above this band could trigger fresh momentum towards the 24,500–24,650 zone. Trading Strategies One may consider a “sell on rise” approach in the 23,800–24,000 range in Nifty, with a stop-loss at 24,200 and downside targets around 23,400 and 23,250. Traders may also consider accumulating energy and pharma-related ETFs on dips. For energy exposure, Energy ETF can be accumulated in the 39–41 zone with a stop-loss at 37 for positional targets of 46 and 50. Similarly, Pharmabees can be accumulated in the 24–25 range with a stoploss at 23 for positional targets of 28 and 30.

Where is Nifty headed? The market remains in a consolidation phase rather than trend exhaustion, with the broader structure still favouring bulls. The 23,800–23,850 zone has blocked seven breakout attempts in two weeks, though the tight range suggests a strong move once crossed. A decisive weekly close above 24,000 and then 24,126 could trigger a rally towards 24,600. On the downside, 23,250–23,150 remains key support. The weekly RSI staying flat above its reference line indicates the market is in a holding pattern, supporting a patient but selectively bullish stance.
Trading Strategies Traders can implement a moderately bullish strategy known as a Bull Call Spread with reduced premium outflow and a lower breakeven point, set for the June 2nd expiry. In this net delta long strategy, traders need to buy one lot of the 23,800 call strike at Rs 222 and simultaneously sell one lot of the 24,100 call strike at Rs 111.
This setup results in a maximum outflow of Rs 7,215, which is the maximum loss that can be incurred. If Nifty closes above 23,911 at expiry, the strategy will begin to generate a profit. However, while the risk is limited, so too is the potential profit. The maximum gain is capped at Rs 12,285, as the profit from the long 23,800 strike call will be offset by the sold 24,100 strike call if Nifty closes above 23,911 at expiry.

Where is Nifty headed? After encountering resistance around the 24500–24700 zone, the index has undergone a measured pullback. Technically, the weekly structure reflects tight volatility compression with the formation of an inside bar setup. A decisive move above 24000 would trigger fresh directional momentum and potentially pave the way towards the 24700 level.
Meanwhile, on the downside, 23200 and 22700 are expected to act as key support levels. Trading Strategy It would be prudent to Buy Nifty Futures above the intermediate resistance level of 24000 for an upside target of 24700, maintaining a stop-loss below 23700 levels.
