- First of all, apologize for not being able to post updates from some time. Was bogged down with multiple issues, hence could not spend quality time on the markets. Would try to be regular going forward.
- Since, i am doing an analysis after a gap. Would keep it brief and get to depth in a day or two.
- Generally speaking the Indices have been roaring from past two weeks. After the low made on 8th Mar, Indices have not looked back. Bulls had a great time, trapping a good amount of bears in the market.
- Lets look at the levels below :
- After a stellar rise for two weeks, both Nifty and Bank Nifty made bearish engulfing candles today. I suspect, some profit booking and consolidation is on the cards from here. Important levels to watch are 16825 and 35900 for Nifty and Bank Nifty respectively. A Breach of these levels could pull the Indices down to 16550 and 34700 respectively.
- I feel the sharp rise seen lately, has left some gaps and these gaps need to be bridged. First of these has been filled today. Lets see if the remaining ones also get filled in the days to come.
- FII buying on Friday, i feel could be a misnomer. It was probably more due to FTSE rebalancing and not so much due to a change in the FII stance.
- FII stance continues to be bearish. They booked profits on their Index future longs and created shorts as well. Moreover, they sold a huge number of calls on Index. Their stance on Stock futures was also similar.
- Dollar Index continues to be strong and the US yields are above 2. While both of these seem to have been priced in, they still continue to be a barrier for the FII capital to return.
- With the war now almost fully priced in, the fresh risk seem to be the rising Covid cases globally. While the market has been conveniently ignoring the same, it could hurt anytime if it results into fresh lockdowns in the country. At the moment it is a bit distant though.
- Inflation would continue to hurt. The oil prices are rising again and continue to be volatile.
- For today, this is all. Would discuss more from tomorrow onwards.
