  • Markets today opened deep in red and then dipped further. At one point Nifty was 170 point in red and Bank Nifty was 600 point in red. The indices though made a fantastic recovery from there and closed well in green.
  • Interesting part is, while the stocks in themselves traded in low volumes, the volume on indices was heavier than normal. Seems in the absence of big players, some mice were trying to play on the indices. 
  • While I did mention yesterday, that the weekly chart indicates some bottoming at the current levels, the conviction was not that strong. Somehow, the heart and mind is again not in sync to believe the momentum build today. Lets see...
  • Nifty
    • Support
      • First support at 17025
      • Second support at 16850
    • Resistance
      • First resistance at 17150
      • Second resistance at 17350
    • The resistance level above the first resistance has quite a gap. A sustained trading above 17150 may trigger a strong short covering till 17350. 
  • Bank Nifty
    • Support
      • First support at 34900
      • Second support at 34250
    • Resistance
      • First resistance at 35200
      • Second resistance at 35500
  • In general the indices are all over the place and lack a clear trend. As mentioned yesterday, a clear trend is to evolve. While the data is not consistent, it does indicate bullishness, however lack of participation in Index futures, low volumes on individual stocks, fail to spark conviction.
  • The options OI indicate a support at 17000 on Nifty and 35000 on Bank Nifty.
  • Dollar Index and US yields continue to be within the range. 
  • However, a dilution of Dollar Index and easing of USD/INR is a good sign for our markets. The Oil has risen and kind of gives a feeling on the growth of economy.
  • I would however, maintain suspicion and hold a neutral stand.
  • A clear trend would probably take time, till then making money would not be so easy, specially for option sellers. 
  • Maintain light positions and carry less overnight, is what i would advice...
