08 Aug ’23 Post Mortem on BankNifty | Stance is neutral !
The major reason Nifty50 stayed strong without falling much is banknifty. It did show an attempt to break free from the bearish trend, the opening rush of 279pts till 10.40 is proof for that. From there was loss of steam and a pull back of 204pts. Once this inverted V shape was completed - there was lack of direction or momentum. Options data also indicated a non-directional trend post 11.30.
The change in stance from bearish to neutral worked well for banknifty today. We have marginally closed above the trendline. But for a bullish breakout we need to take back the 45400-45600 levels soon - I am not sure if there is enough momentum for that right now.
If the trades taken on Finnifty today were positional in nature due to expiry, we may have an unwinding tomorrow. This could also pull back banknifty back to the bearish zone - so currently the best idea would be to wait for tomorrow’s price action.
