  • Following a weak set of global cues, both Nifty and Bank Nifty opened lower today, consolidated for a good time and then made a sharp recovery to close at the high end of the day's range. 
  • The closing of Nifty close to 18000 and Bank Nifty above 38500 is a good indication of momentum and is a sign of possible expansion of the market further.
  • Nifty
    • Nifty opened 30 point lower and gradually declined by 50 points before making a sharp recovery of 130 points and closing at 17991.
    • Nifty made a strong bullish candle on the daily chart and indicates strength.
    • Support
      • First support at 17960
      • Second support at 17890
    • Resistance
      • First resistance at 18040
      • Second resistance at 18150
  • Bank Nifty
    • Bank Nifty opened slightly lower, consolidated for some time and then picked up strength again to close above its yesterday's high of 18495. Indicates strength
    • It made a strong bullish candle on the daily chart.
    • Support 
      • First support at 38200
      • Second support at 37750
    • Resistance 
      • First resistance at 38800
      • Second cannot predict as of now.
  • FII sold for 278Cr today and DII sold for 741Cr today, a net selling of 1000Cr and the index is still up. As mentioned yesterday, this is retail buying and has to be supported by Institutional investors for it to be sustainable.
  • On the FnO side also the FII unwound longs and created shorts on Index futures. They also sold some calls and bought puts on the index. A consistent stance which is bearish and is coupled by DII selling actually raises some concerns on the sustainability of the current breakout. Lets see...
  • Dollar Index has now breached 94.5 again and while the US yields are marginally below 1.6 now, we are not out of woods.
  • Meanwhile, the Brent oil is near 84 USD and is a concern for our markets. INR has been losing against the Dollar and there has been an increase in gold, indicating some shift towards risk free assets. Time again to be a bit cautious.
  • While I feel the buy on dips theme remains, the markets are over valued in the short term. For return of domestic liquidity, some more dilution may happen before some strong institutional buying comes in. My point is not that markets will turn bearish, it is just that we are at peak valuations and exercising caution is necessary.
  • Trading range of Nifty still remains 17600-18100 and for Bank Nifty it has strong support at 37750 and the upper limit could be around 38800.
  • Bank Nifty has picked up the baton after IT gave up and a reversal of leadership may happen once Bank Nifty sees 38800....
