The anticipated trading band for the MCX Crude Oil futures has got narrower to Rs 6,180 - Rs 6,660. Broader trend for Natural Gas remains weak as the commodity trades below 200-WMA.
Commenting on the extended trade timing for interest rate PRAKARSH GAGDANI, chief executive officer of 5paisa says that the fatigue of longer trading hours for regular traders will soon weigh in.
In the interim, the 200-WMA at 16,975 could be another key level to watch out for, as the Nifty had bounced back from there during the correction in the first half of 2022.
The MCX Gold futures are likely to find considerable support around Rs 56,235 level; the bias may turn cautious only on sustained trade below the same.
