Trade Setup For Feb. 28: Nifty 50 Faces Support At 22,500 Levels
- As long as NSE Nifty 50 holds 22,500, a pullback rally towards 22,700-22,800 is possible, an analyst said.
- 22,600 will service as a key resistance zone for short-term traders, according to Shrikant Chouhan, head of equity research at Kotak Securities Ltd.
- A fresh sell-off is likely only after a breach of 22,500 levels on the lower end. Below this level, the market could slide to 22,400-22,350 levels, said Chouhan.
- For Bank Nifty, the support levels are placed at around 47,840, as per Yedve. On the upside, 49,650 will remain a challenging barrier for the index.
