Monday Market Prediction: Gap Up Rally or Sudden Reversal? Nifty Near 26,000 as Bitcoin Crashes 45%
Tomorrow morning investors will wake up with one big question — will the rally continue or will volatility return again?
In this blog, we are going to discuss Monday Market Prediction on the basis of some analysis. We hope our efforts help you to make your investments accordingly and wisely.
Two Months of Market Fluctuation — What’s Really Happening?
From the last two months, we are watching fluctuations in the market, ETFs, and gold and silver prices. The reason behind that is global news, FIIs and DIIs selling or buying. Moreover, trade deals and the AI Summit have also impacted sentiments.
From last month, we are trying to give information about all these in our blogs. We also hope that they are helping you in one or another way.
Last Week’s Market Action — Strong Support Near 25,500
Last week, we have seen ups and downs in the market. Market closed at 25,571 in Nifty 50 and 61,172 in Bank Nifty.
Though the market crashed many times, still it made a high above 26,000. Sudden falls brought it back to 25,500, but strong support pulled it back toward 26,000 again.
This rally should continue to profit all investors on Monday, February 23, 2026. According to our Monday Market Prediction, there may be a bullish trend which could help the market move upward.
Gap up must be seen in this rally.
Key Levels to Watch on Monday
On the upside, resistance would be between 25,800 – 26,000. If it passes 26,000, it may revive strong bullish momentum.
The market ended the week with modest gains while making some corrections. It will remain volatile in the coming week because of F&O expiry scheduled for February 24, 2026.
Nifty has rebounded from the 25,400 – 25,500 zone, reducing downside pressure. The index continues to hold its long-term rising channel with some corrections.
Low zone: 25,300 – 25,000
Recovery resistance: 25,900 – 26,100
Strong support: Around 25,900
So, according to this Monday Market Prediction, a positive trend could be there in the market.
Bank Nifty Signals: Range-Bound but Crucial Levels Ahead
Nifty Bank formed a base near 59,900 and bounced back towards 61,600, but selling pressure at higher levels kept it range-bound. The 61,500–62,000 zone remains a major resistance, while 59,800–60,000 remains a key support.
A breakout above 62,000 could strengthen bullish momentum, while a fall below 59,800 may increase downside pressure.
India–US Trade Deal & FIIs Activity — Big Trigger?
India–US trade deal expectations and other global reasons are behind current movements.
In February, FII investment is increasing, which is a good sign for the market. Though foreign investors sold IT shares, investment in financial services and capital goods sector is increasing.
This sector rotation shows selective bullishness.
With hope of positivity in the market, cross your fingers and be profitable in the Monday market. Once again, invest wisely your hard-earned money and exit before losses. In greed, do not lose your profit and investment.
Bitcoin Crashes 45% — Will It Impact Indian Markets?
On Sunday evening, February 22, 2026, Bitcoin, the world’s most popular cryptocurrency, has declined by 45% from its recent highs.
Though the Indian market prediction is for a gap-up opening, the Bitcoin crash may affect sentiment. As you know, stock market moods change in one moment — upside down or downside up.
So be cautious while trading.
To summarize this Monday Market Prediction, the market is holding strong support levels and showing bullish recovery signs. A gap-up opening is expected, and if 26,000 is crossed, bullish momentum may revive strongly.
However, due to F&O expiry and global volatility including the Bitcoin crash, sudden swings cannot be ignored.
Trade smart. Book profits wisely. Avoid greed. Protect capital first.
Let’s see how Monday unfolds.
Do you think Nifty will finally break 26,000 tomorrow — or is a surprise reversal waiting? Comment your prediction below
