On July 24, Indian benchmark indices witnessed profit-booking for the fourth consecutive session, with the Nifty falling below 24,450, primarily led by banking names.

Despite weak global cues, the Indian indices opened higher but turned lower in the initial hour, extending losses as the day progressed. However, last-hour buying helped erase some of the intraday losses.
On the sectoral front, healthcare, oil & gas, media, telecom, and power sectors were up 1-2%, while FMCG and the bank index were down 0.5-1%.

Nifty has formed a bearish candlestick pattern with a long lower shadow and a minor upper shadow on the daily chart. Its immediate resistance level is now placed at 24,500 while immediate support is at 24,300.
BANK NIFTY: The index opened 121 points lower at 51,657 and closed at 51,317. Bank Nifty has formed a bearish candlestick pattern with upper and lower shadows on the daily chart. Its immediate resistance level is now placed at 51,500 while immediate support is at 51,000.
