  • Responding to the weak global cues, Markets today opened flat, but then consolidated and closed slightly higher compared to yesterday. While Nifty kind of rose gradually through the day, Bank Nifty was sold off to its support level immediately after opening and then picked support to close higher.
  • The intraday range today was not very high but the recovery demonstrated was awesome. At one time it was trading 300 point lower than yesterdays close, but it managed to close in green. 
  • While Nifty made a bullish candle, Bank Nifty made a small bullish candle with a large lower shadow, indicating buying at lower levels.
  • Nifty
    • Support
      • First support at 18000
      • Second support at 17875
    • Resistance 
      • First resistance at 18100
      • Second resistance at 18200
  • Bank Nifty
    • Support
      • First support at 38250
      • Second support at 38025
    • Resistance 
      • First resistance at 38500
      • Second resistance at 38775
  • FII today bought for 111Cr in cash and DII also bought for 378Cr in cash. FII however, unwound a huge number of longs and some shorts on Index futures. This unwinding of longs and shorts both seem to be an indication of a concern on the bulls riding high and unwillingness to put in cash. At this juncture I believe the market is kind of directionless. 
  • I would play a bit cautious now and wait for a direction to evolve. As mentioned yesterday, a rising VIX with a rising market is an indication of this concern being widely felt. The market range has expanded and as mentioned yesterday, volatility should be on its way. Lets see.
  • The US market is creating the nervousness as the Inflation data is a cause for concern and both Dow and Nasdaq seem to be nervous. 
  • Dollar Index is refusing to fall below 95.5 and also the Yields continue to hover above 1.7. The concerns around the FED rate hikes keep liquidity away. 
  • The options OI indicate support at 18000 for Nifty and 38000 for Bank Nifty. While a tussle at 38500 for Bank Nifty and a range of 18000-18400 for nifty.
  • Yesterday US made a spectacular reversal and the US indices after making a deep cut, rose sharply and closed near its highs. This supported the sentiment globally and the close today in US would be important to set the tone tomorrow.
  • In any case the levels above prevail.
