Technical & Derivatives Report
Exhibit 1: Nifty Daily Chart
Yesterday, the Bank Nifty index started on a mild negative note,
and then it remained in a range amidst stock-specific action. In
the penultimate hours however a strong upmove was seen to
eventually end at the highest point of the day with marginal
gains at 35374.
Technically not much has changed and it seems the key indices
have entered into a consolidation phase. As mentioned in our
previous outlook as well, the Bank Nifty has been inconsistent
recently but we remain upbeat and expect outperformance in
the near term. Yesterday, we witnessed a mixed bag of pictures
as some stocks seemed under pressure while some stocks
outperformed especially the PSU space. Going ahead, the
approach will remain to have stock-specific trades within this
basket as they are likely to give outperforming opportunities.
As far as levels are concerned, 35800 followed by 36200 is the
immediate resistance whereas support is placed around 35000
- 34600.
Key Levels
Support 1 – 35000 Resistance 1 – 35800
Support 2 – 34500 Resistance 2 – 36000
Exhibit 2: Nifty Bank Daily Chart
As far as support levels are concerned,
become a sacrosanct zone; whereas on the flip side, 15660 –
15700 are the immediate levels to watch out for. From here on,
index specific trades are not going to be smooth and in fact, one
needs to be very selective when it comes to stock specific trades
as well. We reiterate on avoiding aggressive bets and it’s
advisable to follow a proper risk management.
Key Levels
Support 1 – 15430 Resistance 1 – 15660
Support 2 – 15400 Resistance 2 – 15700
Yesterday’s session started on a sluggish note owing to mixed
global cues. As the day progressed, the index extended its losses
a bit due to some profit booking in the few heavyweights.
However post the mid-session, the sudden buying emerged at
lower levels which pulled the index higher to conclude the session
with a negligible gain in Nifty.
The kind of corrective move we were witnessing in the first half
yesterday, by no means it should be considered a major fall or a
sign of caution. The market has seen a steady up move recently
and in the process has managed to clock fresh record highs, so
such in between breathers are very much evident. Rather it should
be considered a healthy sign. In our previous commentary, we had
mentioned a key support around 15430 – 15400 and if we look
at yesterday’s recovery, it has come precisely after nearing this
support zone. We continue to remain upbeat as long as we do not
witness a major trend reversal and until then one should use
intraday dips to go long in the market.
