INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
By Chandan Taparia The Nifty50 index opened negative on Tuesday but managed to hold near the 10,450 mark and headed towards the 10,600
level.
It recovered most of its losses of last trading session and formed a Piercing Line pattern on the daily scale, which indicated that
the bulls are not loosening their grip.
The index has been consolidating between 10,450 and 10,650 levels and it would require a decisive
range breakout for Nifty to commence the next leg of rally
The index has taken support at the lower band of the trading range and now needs to hold above 10,550 to witness an upward move towards
10,650 and then a fresh move towards 10,750 level
On the downside, the index has immediate support at 10,500 and then 10,450 levels.
On the options front, maximum Put open interest was at
10,000 followed by 10,200, while maximum Call OI was at 11,000 followed by 10,800
There was Put writing at 10,200 and 10,400 while Call unwinding was seen at all immediate strike prices
The option band signified an immediate trading range between 10,450 and 10,700 levels.
India VIX fell 3.48 per cent to 18.70
VIX has to cool down below 16 mark to get the next leg of smooth upside rally in the market.
Bank Nifty opened in the negative but recovered
sharply from lower levels and extended its gains towards the 25,800 mark
It formed a bullish candle on the daily scale which suggests buying in the crucial support zone between 25,400 and 25,500 levels
