Nifty Prediction Today – January 30, 2026: Nifty 50 Futures: Can go either way, Wait and watch

Nifty 50 opened with a wide gap-down today and is trading lower now. The index fell to a low of 25,218.95 but has risen back well from there. It is currently trading at 25,313, down 0.4 per cent. The advances/declines ratio is at 16:34. This is negative. The trend has to change in favour of the advances in order to take the Nifty higher.

Nifty 50 Outlook

Nifty has a resistance at 25,350 and support at 25,160. If the current bounce fails to sustain and breach 25,350, then there is a danger of seeing a fall back. In that case, Nifty can fall to test the support at 25,160 during the day. A further break below 25,160, if seen, can drag the index down to 25,000.

On the other hand, a decisive break above 25,350 can ease the downside pressure. Such a break can take the index up to 25,450 again.

For now, look for a range of 25,160-25,350. A breakout on either side of this range will set the direction for the next move.

Nifty 50 Futures

The Nifty 50 February Futures (25,373) contract is down 0.64 per cent. An important support for the day is at 25,320. If the contract breaks below this support, it can come under more selling pressure. Such a break can drag the Nifty 50 February Futures contract down to 25,180-25,160.

On the other hand, if the contract sustains above 25,320 and bounces back breaking above 25,430, it can get some relief. In that case, a rise to 25,550 is possible.

It is a wait and watch situation for now. The movement for the day will depend on whether the contract is sustaining above 25,320 or not.

Trade Strategy

Traders can stay out of the market for now. Fresh short positions can be considered only after a break below 25,320 happens. Keep the stop-loss at 25,360 and exit the trade at 25,220.

Supports: 25,320, 25,180

Resistances: 25,430, 25,550
