Different questions are being raised. Let's take them one by one:
Q1: Open Interest table is showing huge addition in 9600PE numbers whereas 9600CE numbers have not increased by that much. So does it not mean strong base at 9600 ?
Ans: Lets look at the Open-Interest Table
prnt.sc/ff4edb
And understand who is defending what. The addition of 9.5 lacs number at 9600PE is at average price of 75, so these writers would be defending 9600-75 i.e 9525 and not 9600. Also the accumulative(progressive) avg till this day for 9600PE writers is coming to 140. So in toto, the 46.71 lacs 9600PE writers would be working to defend 9600-140=9460 and not 9600. Thus we have to get our understanding correct.
9600CE writers have accumulative(progressive) average standing at 55. So they are all defending 9600+55=9655. Thus there is much more at stake (at current juncture) for 9600CE writers and the mere fact that even at week-end they have not deserted their positions speaks of their conviction to defend this post.
Q2: Is Momentum strong enough to carry us past 9700?
Ans: Lets look at Hourly charts:
This chart shows clear divergence but break-down has not occurred yet---- so weakness in momentum is only guidance and one has to watch Hourly closings to confirm weakness and take short positions accordingly--- if break-down doesnot happen then we may continue to rise with hiccups.
So take short positions only after breakdown.
Q3: What should be our targets if break-down occurs??
Ans: With such a strong build-up by put-writers at 9600/9500/9400 strikes, I am not expecting very deep cuts. First target would be 9460 and rest would be updated as we approach that point.
