  • Due to paucity of time making it short today.
  • Nifty
    • Support
      • First support at 18260
      • Second support at 18120
    • Resistance
      • First resistance at 18450
      • Second resistance at 18600
    • Nifty closed above its resistance at 18300 today. If it sustains here tomorrow, then it would be looking at the next second highest level of 18450. So a new all time high could be on the cards from here.
  • Bank Nifty
    • Support
      • First support at 38100
      • Second support at 37425
    • Resistance 
      • First resistance at 38450
      • Second resistance at 38750
    • Bank Nifty was trading in a tight range today and could give a breakout tomorrow. With so much consolidation in the current range, a breakout could turn out to be fast and furious here.
  • With US markets closed today, the action at our markets was low volume and thin. Tomorrow could be a strong trending day. Bank Nifty seems to be under pressure here. Partially driven by dilution of prepositioning on HDFC Bank. 
  • We may see a buildup tomorrow on this index. However, the key levels above should be kept in mind strictly.
  • FII again sold today and also were bearish on the Index futures. Their activity on the Index options side was bearish and thin as well.
  • Dollar Index and US Yields are more or less stable.
  • Options OI indicate a support at 18300 for Nifty and Bank Nifty reflects some weakness. Watch out the support at 38100 for Bank Nifty. If that is taken down, we may see a sharp correction to 37500. While i have positive bias for Bank Nifty, Honestly speaking, i am not sure about a short term breakout on Bank Nifty. Though I am bullish for long term.
  • So would go with the price action tomorrow.
