Volume profile & trade plan:
As per volume profile value area is placed within 15249(VAH) 14944(VAL) for Nifty. Major trading activities are seen within this range with high volume and rising combined open interest. Nifty has made a bullish CupAndHolder pattern in smaller to the medium timeframe where breakout neckline placed at 15318. So an ideal CnH breakout level on the upside would be 15320 with a copybook target of 15950-16000. And on the downside, the critical level to watch out for is 14944/14851.

Comment:

And in BankNifty value area is placed within the range of 35912(VAH) - 35129(VAL). Nearest breakout levels are 36199 on upside 34865 on downside. Breakout beyond this range may give direction to the market. Range breakout is expected to be stronger and bigger beyond this range. Data points and charts are highly contradictory and misleading. Probably we may see another extension to the rally before the much awaited correction. Stay hedged, stay protected.
