Day trading guide for stock market today
Speaking on outlook for Nifty today, Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities said, “The short term trend of Nifty is choppy with weak bias. The present weakness has not damaged the near term uptrend status of the market so far and we expect chances of buying emerging from near the lower support of around 17,800 levels in the week ahead. On the higher side, the area of 18,150 could act as a resistance.”
Sharing F&O view on Nifty, Rahul Ghose, Founder & CEO at Hedged said, “The Bank Nifty index today saw huge short positions being created at the 41,500 CE levels. The straddle of 41,500 which was the popular choice for the last 2 weeks for traders saw a shift to the 41,000 levels indicating a range shift. Nifty on the other hand saw creation of short straddles around at the 17,900 Level mark indicating that traders are not expecting markets to fall a lot from this point with the highest change in open interest seen at the 17,900 CE and the 18,000 CE level. Even for the next month expiry, there was huge unwinding of the 18,200 CE and fresh shorting seen at the 18,100 CE & 18,000 level indicating narrowing of the range.”
Rahul Ghose went on to add that the sideways range is still intact in Nifty between the upper and lower points at 17,350 and 18,260 levels and any change in momentum would be seen only after a break of these levels.
