  • Indices today opened lower and then after making a quick spike, continued to slide through the day, closing at day lows. Both Nifty and Bank Nifty made strong bearish candles on a daily chart.
  • Nifty 
    • Support
      • First support at 17100
      • Second support at 16850
    • Resistance 
      • First resistance at 17350
      • Second resistance at 17525
  • Bank Nifty
    • Support
      • First support at 37800
      • Second support at 37575
    • Resistance 
      • First resistance at 38425
      • Second resistance at 38825
  • FII sold for 1157Cr today. Unexpectedly the DII also sold heavily today, leading to a sharp correction on the Indices. I did not expect Nifty to breach 17250 and Bank Nifty to breach 38300, however both the indices breached these levels. 
  • While Nifty is below its important supports and the next important support is only at 16850 after 17100, i see some more slippage possible on Nifty.
  • Bank Nifty though is sitting just close to its important supports, so I expect Bank Nifty to pick support here and seems stronger than Nifty as of now. Monthly 37500 and 38000 put of Bank Nifty is at 540 and 750, this could be a good bet. 
  • As mentioned yesterday, IT seems to be amongst the stronger lot. With the kind of selling seen today, IT kind of still held on. I am still holding longs on Futures of IT stocks.
  • Options OI indicate strong call shorting at 17500 and 38500 for Nifty And Bank Nifty respectively. While there was no specific put writing on Nifty, Bank Nifty saw some put writing at 38000. So indicates some support here.
  • Dollar Index is now stable at 95.475 and remains below 95.5, keep watching. 10 Y yields are also stable above 1.9.
  • US Inflation, RBI interest rate decision and Russia Ukraine tensions continue to maintain a lid on the markets. This may keep the broader market under pressure. I would expect Banking and IT stocks to outperform from here.
