BN chart is interesting today, again just like N50 we had a falling 45mts open wherein BN lost 0.8% to go below prev. close. From there it reversed and then rallied 1.46% ~ 655pts to hit a new ATH of 45655 by 13.30 mainly due to the rally in SBIN, KOTAKBANK. PNB +5.94%, FEDERALBANK +3.49% even though their weightage on the index is not that heavy. Again the PUT...
BN had a different style of price action today comparing with N50. The open was gap-up & the rush to hit the HOD at 09.55 was similar. But what followed from there had minor changes. 1. The fall of 0.69% ~ 312pts from the top did have an impact on the momentum 2. Unlike N50, BN did not persist at the HOD levels after the first retracement. N50 had 3 more attempts...
Another island formation by N50, gap up opening of 68+ points and then a rising with strong momentum. I was eagerly waiting for a pullback to take some contra positions. Although we had a small retracement from 10.30 to 11.20 approx 78pts - there was no follow-through. So the only viable option trade was selling the PUTS. This is the 4th consecutive day where N50...
Before we discuss the daily analysis, let me pull up the huge explosive jump in Finnifty CE prices. Usually I dont bore you with FinNifty chart or number unless its expiry day, but today requires some real attention! This screenshot was taken at 13.09 today, with just 1 more day to expiry the jump in premiums were hugely unusual. Agreed Finnifty was up 1.25% by...
Comparing with N50, banknifty did close the gap-up opening. Looking at the opening minutes I felt BN had more inclination to fall into the trading range of the previous day, but the way in which NiftyIT was surging - BN would have changed the mind to play along. BN also hit a new all time high of 44787.1 today, but the thrust to go up was not as convincing as...
Nifty opened gap up at 19076 immediately hitting an all time high, that was just the start. Most of the traders were expecting N50 to close the gap and fall to the trading range of the previous day. That did not happen, instead N50 was firing on all cylinders. The major reason for this thrust in rally came from NiftyIT which ended +2.5% today. IT's strength...
Quarterly Analysis of Nifty50 — 31 Mar 2023 to 28 Jun 2023 N50 also rose 11.06% ~ 1888pts, percentage wise same as BN. The price action of N50 was much more healthy with 2 proper legs & occasional retracement that gave it further thrust. If you analyze the pattern from 01 Dec to 28 Jun it looks like a perfect V shape. 16962 support which provided the crucial turn...
Quarterly Analysis of BankNifty — 31 Mar 2023 to 28 Jun 2023 Banknify gained an impressive 4412pts ~ 11.05% in Q1 FY2023–24. During this process it took out 11 crucial resistance points to finish at the ATH. The upmove was quite strong till 15th May after which BN started trading sideways. Status quo changed on 27th when it broke through the final resistance point...
The trend started in Finnifty which was responsible for the last hour surges in BN and N50. If you look at the Finnifty chart today - it was positive right from the start. From 11.10 to 15.10 we had a decent rise of 1.27% ~ 248pts. Today was the expiry day & till 14.00 we did not see any major impact to the options premium. But right after that the CE premiums...
Nifty opened right at the resistance zone of 18762 and then had a flattish pattern. Again the gap up would be due to front running by few players. Instead of falling to the previous close level - N50 held its ground and was aiming for resistance level breakout. The price action was not as dramatic as BN or Finnifty as the resistance breach came in very late in...
BN opened at 43804 and then had a flattish price move till 13.00 after which it propelled forward like a rocket. Interestingly Finnifty's chart (which we will discuss shortly) had more thrust compared to BN & N50. The 470 pts rally we had from 13.05 to close was nothing short of remarkable. Initially the momentum was slow, but as soon as the short covering...
N50 also had very little movement today to fire up the options premium. We even have a 10000 PE for the current week expiry. i.e a strike which is 47% below the spot price. Even a nuclear war will not take us there by Thursday. N50 also maintained the ground today, not falling below the 18650 level ensuring the swing low of 23rd is not broken. When we ended the...
BN opened gap up, but right at the opening itself we all anticipated that we are not going to have an up day today. The options flow gave me a bearish bias and was looking for opportunities to enter. The first swing till 10.50 where we had a drop of 222pts & then a retracement of 113pts looked healthy and almost filling all the checklist for the 2nd leg. Instead...
Even in spite of the recent greenish momentum, we were all looking for a bearish breakthrough. I cannot say with 100% confidence that we are on the verge for a timely correction - but the markets are quite indicating that way. Banknifty is again scoring over Nifty50 by staying more stable and swinging lesser. Today's episode may be linked to ADANIENT, but over the...
Weekly Analysis of BankNifty Banknifty is up 259pts between 15th to 22nd June i.e. current expiry week. Interestingly, BN was looking at steeper cuts on 15th - the price action was pretty negative. Luckily that level is still sacrosanct and has formed an interim support as we had one more retest @ 20th June. Today's Analysis The major anomaly that stands out in...
Yesterday I said, " I will be a believer if we continue the green spell tomorrow also." - guess what Finnifty hit all time high today at 19660.1 at 13.55. This is partly due to the news flow in HDFC & HDFCBK (both are having good weightage in finnifty). This is the main reason it outperformed with gains of 0.68% whereas Nifty & Banknifty had gains of 0.21%...
--- How many of you were prepared for the last 1 hour move today, I assume 90% of traders would have anticipated it. The real wow moment would be if we get to see the unwinding tomorrow. At least till the 43528 levels. We added 331pts between 14.25 to close today, most of which were due to Nifty's resistance crossing or positional trade on Finnifty expiry. The...
Nifty50 missed ATH by 6 points, the real reason was due to bank nifty - will explain it to you today. Banknifty made some strange price actions today. Nifty50 had a gap up opening and was roaring to break the ATH, banknifty on the other had had an inline opening and was stuck below the resistance. The real reason N50 couldn't scale the peak was because BN was...
