Considering
the indecisive formations of the past two sessions, traders should remain
cautiously optimistic, with a stop loss below 11,100 level, says Mazhar
Mohammad of Chartviewindia.in.
The Nifty50, after a day of
consolidation, gathered steam and reclaimed the crucial 11,200 level on August
6 after the Reserve Bank of India kept rates unchanged but allowed one-time
loan restructuring along with more liquidity measures for stressed sectors.
The index closed near its
opening level and hence formed a Doji candle on the daily chart. A Doji candle
indicates there is some indecisiveness among the bulls and the bears and
bounces were being sold in the absence of follow-up buying interest.
Considering the indecisive
formations of last two trading sessions, Mazhar Mohammad, Chief
Strategist–Technical Research & Trading Advisory at Chartviewindia.in
advised traders to remain cautious with a stop loss below 11,100 levels.
India VIX fell by 1.78 percent
to 23.15 levels. Decline in VIX from its recent bounce of 25.69 suggests that
the bulls are using any decline as a buying opportunity and overall trend could
remain bullish, experts say.
After a strong opening of
11,185.70, the Nifty50 touched an intraday high of 11,256.80 after the RBI
policy announcement but erased some gains to close near its opening levels. The
index settled at 11,200.20, up 98.50 points.
“It is critical for the index
to sustain above 11,127 levels in the next trading session to retain positive
bias as the breach of said level can attract selling pressure on intraday
basis, with a modest target present in the zone of 11,064 – 11,024
levels," Mohammad said.
However, as trading bias is in
the favour of the bulls, if they manage to push and hold the index above
11,256, then the target can be the retest of recent swing high present around
11,341, he said.
The options data indicates a
shift in the immediate trading range of the Nifty to 11,000-11,400 levels for
the coming few days from 10,800-11,300 in the previous session.
Maximum Put open interest was
at 11,000 followed by 10,000 strike, while maximum Call open interest was at
11,500 followed by 12,000 strike. Minor Call writing was seen at 11,600 and
11,700 strikes while Put writing was seen at 11,000 then 10,800 strike.
The Bank Nifty opened positive
but after a roller-coaster ride, it again failed to hold above 21,900 and
drifted towards 21,500. The index closed 132.65 points higher at 21,642.60 but
formed a Doji candle as it closed near the opening level and hovered near its
50-DEMA, which indicates a tug of war at key trading levels.
"Mechanical indicators are
on the verge of turning upside and it requires a decisive follow-up to confirm
the next momentum. If it manages to hold above 21,500 levels, then bounce could
be seen towards 22,000, then 22,250 levels, while on the downside, immediate
support is seen at 21,250 then 21,000 levels," Chandan Taparia, Vice
President | Analyst-Derivatives at Motilal Oswal Financial Services said.
Positive setup was seen in NIIT
Technologies, Aurobindo Pharma, Glenmark Pharma, Tata Steel, Infosys, TVS
Motor, ICICI Prudential, Jubilant Foodworks and TCS, while weak structure was
seen in BHEL, InterGlobe Aviation and Canara Bank, he added.
