Zinc: Bounces from a support. Go long
- Zinc futures bounced this week from a key support level around ₹253, with another support level at ₹251.
- As long as the contract stays above ₹253, the near-term outlook remains bullish, targeting a rise to ₹260-262 in a week or two, and potentially reaching ₹265 in the coming weeks.
- A break below ₹253 could see a test of ₹251 before a potential reversal. Only a decisive break below ₹251 would negate the bullish view, signaling a bearish outlook towards ₹243-240, which currently seems unlikely.
- Traders are advised to go long at ₹255, accumulating on dips at ₹253, with a stop-loss at ₹250. Stop-loss levels should be adjusted as the contract moves up, trailing it to ₹257 at ₹259, and further up to ₹258 and ₹260 as the price reaches ₹260 and ₹261, with an exit point at ₹262.
