Advanced Market Forecasting Through New Wave Theory, Time Cycles, and Ratio Analysis
Nifty Monthly Chart: Long-Term Structural Trend Remains Intact
Nifty monthly chart:

From a medium- to long-term perspective, Nifty has continued to inch higher within a well-defined rising channel, as visible on the monthly timeframe. Prices have consistently moved between the upper and lower red trend lines, clearly confirming a structural long-term uptrend.
The sharp corrections of 2008 and the 2020 COVID crash marked decisive tests of the lower boundary of this channel. Importantly, these events did not violate the broader trend structure. Instead, they completed significant corrective phases within the larger cycle.
Post the COVID-19 decline, Nifty completed Wave 4 at the lows and has since started moving higher in the form of a Diametric pattern, which is a key structure under Neo Wave theory.
Cycle Degree Wave Count: Ongoing Wave 5 with Corrective Internals
At present, the index is progressing through a Cycle Degree Wave 5, within which Primary Wave 1 is currently unfolding.
However, the internals of Primary Wave 1 are corrective in nature, as prices are forming a Terminal pattern. Terminal structures generally indicate corrective rises, even though they continue to trend upward.
Within this Diametric formation:
- Wave E is currently in progress
- Wave E typically mimics the behavior of Wave C
This implies that any short-term setback or volatility should be viewed as a long-term buying opportunity, since the broader structure still indicates multiple upside milestones yet to be achieved.
Bank Nifty weekly chart

Bank Nifty Weekly Chart: Structural Strength Since 2009
Moving to Bank Nifty, the weekly chart captures the entire bull run from the 2009 lows. Prices have clung remarkably well to the upper resistance line, especially since 2021, and have continued drifting higher.
This behavior confirms relative structural strength and suggests that Bank Nifty remains a lead index within Indian equities.

Bank Nifty vs Nifty Ratio: Long-Term Outperformance Intact
The Bank Nifty / Nifty ratio chart provides additional confirmation. The ratio still has more room on the upside, indicating that Bank Nifty is likely to continue outperforming Nifty.
Historically, over the past two decades, the ratio has consistently trended higher. This means:
- When the overall outlook for the Indian economy remains positive
- Bank Nifty tends to outperform on a risk-adjusted basis
- Despite higher volatility, it delivers superior relative returns compared to Nifty
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time Cycle Analysis: 73-Week Cycle in Focus
One of the most critical observations is that Bank Nifty has been respecting the 73-week time cycle with remarkable precision.
- Several important market lows have formed around this cycle zone
- Each such low has historically resulted in multi-month upward moves
- Currently, prices are once again positioned right at this cycle area
This alignment reinforces the medium- to long-term bullish bias, even though short-term volatility remains possible.

Event Risk: Supreme Court Verdict and Global Market Impact
In the near term, markets may experience volatility due to the Supreme Court verdict related to the emergency declaration by Donald Trump.
- If the ruling goes against the Trump administration
- It could trigger an event shock in US markets
- Which may temporarily impact global equities, including India
Therefore, while the larger trend remains bullish, short-term corrections or heightened volatility cannot be ruled out.

Bank Nifty Outlook: Targets and Volatility
In summary:
- Medium- to long-term upside target for Bank Nifty remains at 69,000
- Short-term volatility may increase due to event risk
- Even if markets correct in the short run, the structure remains poised for eventual continuation higher
