• Hanging man candlestick. Under normal conditions, a 150 point tail would have been significant candle, but given the way markets have moved in the last 2 months, we need further observations
• While it has formed Hanging Man candlestick, it has also managed to close significantly above 20 day EMA. If Nifty has to go down it has to break that level in next 2-3 days
• If, however, Nifty survives above 20 day EMA, then it could be an indication of more upside & in the next 14 trading sessions probability of heading towards 50 day EMA will be much higher.

All in all, despite Nifty being up 3%, we have not seen rise in Open Interest. It has rather reduced by 6.5K Contracts.
Though we are clear with the levels & possible movements (discussed in the 1st part), Monday is recommended to be an observational day to understand the bigger picture - whether OI is building up or not and if it is, then how market participants are positioning their trades.
Make your move after understanding the battleground you are in and knowing the strength & weakness of your opposition. In trading, remember for every buyer there is a seller and vice-versa. So it is You vs others. And it is important to understand who you are trading against.
Take care & be safe...!!!

Nifty just kept on going up-down-up-down-up-down throughout the day confusing traders and eventually closing flat. The view not to trade in Nifty today & just observe turned out to be good idea... :-)

As Nifty is trading below 20 day EMA,, selling Nifty 92000 Call option may be considered 58-65 CMP 58.5
The chart seems to be a monthly chart and not a Daily chart.
