All major indices closed in red. Nifty Media (-4.98%), Nifty PSU Bank (-3.7%), and Nifty Metal (-3.26%) fell the most.

Major Asian markets closed in the red. European markets are currently trading in the red.

Today’s Moves

Mahindra & Mahindra (+0.4%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer.

BSE (+7.52%) moved up sharply after the exchange said it would increase transaction charges on the equity derivatives segment, with effect from November 1.

Shares of CreditAccess Grameen (+7.4%) hit a 52-week high on the back of strong Q2 results and a rise in FY24 revenue guidance.

LTI Mindtree (-3.97%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The stock has been witnessing a correction since the IT firm reported its Q2 results last week.

Laurus Labs (-9.6%) fell sharply after the pharma company reported a decline in net profit and revenue in Q2.

Markets Ahead

The Indian stock markets were under severe selling pressure post 2:30 PM today— there was a fall of more than 550 points in Bank Nifty, 200 points in Fin Nifty, and 150 points in Nifty! Now, all these indices are at major long-term support zones. If those supports are breached, we could see more bearishness in the markets.

Nifty: As you can see in the chart below, Nifty is at a very important support zone of 19,200-250 levels. If that level is breached, the index may fall to 18,800 levels. On the other hand, the important hurdle to cross on the upper side would be 19,500 levels.

Bank Nifty: Bank Nifty broke the important support zone near 43,500. Now, the 43,000 round level can still be considered as support. If that level is breached, we could expect a further decline to 42,600 levels. Meanwhile, the important resistance to watch out for will be 43,600 levels.



Our markets fell sharply today after the benchmark 10-year US treasury note rose above 5%. Moreover, deepening conflict in the Middle East has hurt investor sentiments in the overall Asian markets.

The Indian markets will be closed tomorrow (Oct 24) on account of Dussehra!

marketfeed wishes all our readers a very happy and prosperous Dussehra!

The index took support near the round levels of 19,500, moved up to 19,600, consolidated, and gave a breakout till yesterday’s closing levels of 19,680.

Nifty chart October 19 - post-market analysis

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 43,616 with a gap down of 272 points. After the big gap-down opening, the index rose sharply till yesterday’s closing levels of 44,000, took rejection, fell to 43,750 levels, and shot back up to 44,060. Then, the index gradually fell to 43,750 levels again. BNF closed at 43,754, down by 134 points or 0.31%.

Bank Nifty chart October 19 - post-market analysis

All indices except Nifty Auto (+0.5%), Nifty Media (+0.14%), and Nifty FMCG (+0.14%) closed flat-to-red. Nifty Metal (-0.88%) fell the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed (Japan’s Nikkei fell 1.9%). European markets are currently trading in the red.

Today’s Moves

Bajaj Auto (+6.7%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock hit a 52-week high of ₹5,495 after the two-wheeler manufacturer reported strong Q2 results.

Shares of PSU civil construction company NBCC (India) Ltd (+9.5%) have zoomed over 60% in 3 months.

LTI Mindtree (+6.6%) jumped after the IT major posted Q2 earnings yesterday.

Wipro (-2.98%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The company reported flat overall growth in Q2 due to the macroeconomic slowdown and cutbacks in discretionary spending in global markets.

MMTC (-9.95%) fell sharply today. The stock has crashed nearly 20% in 2 days on reports that the govt may shut down the company.

Markets Ahead

Bank Nifty made very volatile moves today. Meanwhile, Nifty tried recovering from the lows but faced rejection from the resistance zones.

Nifty: The important support to watch out for is 19,600. A breakdown from there may take the index down to 19,500 levels. The earlier resistance in Nifty will now act as support. The resistance to look out for will be 19,680 levels, and a breakout from there could give us targets of 19,720 and 19,800.

Bank Nifty: The immediate support in BNF is near today’s low and round levels of 43,500. This is an important long-term support zone as you can see in the chart below. A closing below that zone on a daily or weekly time frame could confirm long-term bearishness. On the other hand, the resistance zone is 44,000, and BNF needs to close above that for some bullishness or reversal.

Premiums in Nifty contracts today and Bank Nifty contracts yesterday experienced insane gamma spikes in Out of the Money (OTM) options. The premiums shot up from ₹1 to ₹25-20 in Nifty today and ₹15 premiums spiked to ₹300 yesterday in Bank Nifty! This creates panic situations for option sellers, whereas such moves reward option buyers if they’re in the right direction.

Markets Ahead

There is no point in talking about the Israel-Hamas issue again and again. But it has brought a lot of confusion in the global economy.

“Will crude oil price continue to rise?”
“Will inflation rates jump again?”
“Should we expect another rate hike?”
“USD-INR is testing the resistance at 83.2. Will there be more weakness?”

What will investors do at this point? They will simply exit their portfolio with every rise and wait for a dip.

Nifty has fallen below its immediate support at 19,780. But we will see a good inflow of cash if it touches the 19,480 level.

Bank Nifty has made a weak pattern after retracing to 44,660 resistance. HDFC Bank is not giving an indication of a bounce back, as the major support is far away at the 1,470 zone.

What about ICICI Bank? The current chart structure indicates major support near the 929-933 zone ahead of its results on October 21.

Nifty is taking a pause after creating gaps on a daily time frame. A breakout or breakdown from these levels will give us clarity on which side the Indian markets are headed. India Vix is up by 5% today despite consolidation, which indicates that fear is rising in the overall markets, and a trendy move can be expected.

Nifty: The immediate support is near today’s low of 19,700 levels. A breakdown from there could give us targets of 19,675 and 19,630. The next resistance level to watch out for is 19,780. Between this zone, the index can be choppy. A breakout from there may give us targets of 19,840 and 19,880. Nifty is also at the edge of a trendline breakdown (as shown below). So watch this trendline.

Markets Ahead

The Indian markets were dragged by banking and IT stocks today, and inflation concerns in the U.S. also weighed on investor sentiment.

Markets Ahead

The Indian market is under selling pressure due to global negativity. Nifty has taken rejection from the 38% Fibonacci levels, and BNF at its 23% Fib level. India Vix shot up by 10%, which indicates that volatility and bearishness would continue.

Nifty: The important support to watch out for is today’s low of 19,480. A breakdown from there could take the index down to 19,445 and 19,400. The immediate resistance for Nifty is near 19,540, and a breakout may give us targets of 19,580 and 19,640 levels.

A rise in Vix indicates bearishness. So look for breakdowns in case of directional trades!

The Israel-Hamas war has led to heightened geopolitical risks. Oil prices have increased due to fears of disruption in the West Asia region. Market analysts expect bond yields to go up and stock markets to fall if the war continues.

Today’s Moves

L&T (+2.06%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The company’s Buildings & Factories segment secured several ‘large’ projects across various business units.

Infibeam Avenues (+13.2%) broke its 2-day losing streak and surged up to 14% on the back of strong volumes.

Shares of Sobha (+6.48%) moved up after the company recorded sales worth ₹1,723.8 crore in Q2 FY24, a growth of 48.1% YoY.

Marico (-4.9%) fell sharply after the company said its consolidated revenue in Q2 FY24 would be lower due to price correction and forex impact.

Markets Ahead

Continuous net selling from FIIs is causing a lot of pressure in the Indian market. Nifty opened in the green and continued in the green zone. This might be a reflection of weekly expiry and cannot be considered an indication of reversal in the market.

But you can keep your faith in Nifty’s 19,250 zone, which can trigger fresh buying in equities. Also, you can mark the 19,520 level as short-term and intraday support.

Yesterday’s hammer formation in Nifty is slightly invalid now because the index couldn’t form a connecting green candle today.

RBI’s interest rate decision will be announced tomorrow at 10 AM.

Question of the day: Why do you think Trent Limited has two brands (Zudio and Westside) in the same market segment?

Nifty made a hammer candlestick in the daily time frame, whereas Bank Nifty looks bearish. So if the indices breach the important levels discussed below, they may turn into a bearish trend for the rest of the quarter.

Nifty: The immediate resistance for the index is near 19,480-500 levels. The important support level is near today’s low of 19,300 levels. Looking at the reversal from the bottom, the index could move a little higher tomorrow. If 19,500 is crossed, Nifty may be choppy and volatile till 19,560 levels are crossed. After that, 19,640 and 19,700 could be targets on the upside. A breakdown of 19,400 may give us targets of 19,340 and 19,280 eventually.

Bank Nifty: The immediate resistance to watch out for is near 44,000, and the next resistance is at 44,200 levels. A breakout from these levels could give us targets of 44,370 and 44,500 eventually. A breakdown from today’s low may give us targets of 43,720 and 43,630.
