19th July'2021 (Evening) -- | Written at 11.30PM |

  • As expected and mentioned in yesterdays notes, Indices opened gap down and opened precisely at the second level support (First I mentioned will be breached in the gap down itself).
  • First reaction was a bit of pull back with some rise on the indices and then came the second round of selling, taking the indices down again. With some recovery at the day end, both the indices made Doji kind of candles, indicating a lack of direction from the current levels.
  • This uncertainty is driven from selling by FII at higher levels and buying by DII at lower levels. This continued today as well.
  • FII though are now extremely bearish and again reversed their positions in the FnO segment, while selling heavily in cash.
  • The Global sentiment was extremely weak today and this continued into European and US markets. Europe closed almost 2% down and US is trading 2% down as of now. 
  • A continuous slide in these markets is driven from recovery concerns on the back of a fear of Covid surge. This kind of trigerred a global risk off sentiment and heavy selling is being seen across the globe.
  • On the options side also the OI build up is weak on the put side and heavy call writing was seen. Also Bank Nifty saw some more shirt buildup today. Globally the Banking stocks seem to be weak in general.
  • Nifty has held the second level support today and Bank Nifty is holding the third level support I mentioned yesterday. 
  • The sentiment is weak as of now and if US closes on this note, it may ignite another gap down opening tomorrow. While aggressive intraday selling and shorting is not seen today as the levels were respected. 
  • We now need to look at the important supports from here.
    • Nifty - 15645, 15450
    • BankNifty - 35070, 34650
  • As mentioned earlier, Nifty weak only below 15450 and Bank Nifty is weak below 33900. Till then some fresh entries are ok at these dips.
  • I personally feel that the VIX is low and todays reaction in our markets was also driven from the standpoint that we were sitting at all time highs and markets were looking for a reason for correction.
  • The Options OI is still not spread very wide and the indices ae still within the larger i have been mentioning earlier. We would wait for a breach to decide the next course.
