Monday was a bloodbath in the market for the FINNIFTY expiry. The trend of expiries being difficult to trade continued and this time the market fell by a lot.
And tomorrow is the monthly expiry, and the market trend will have to be shown today. On Monday, we were waiting to see if there was a recovery to sell puts in the market, but it was a day of fall.
It might be difficult for the market to give a reversal confirmation today. BANK NIFTY is at its 5-month low and has broken the 200-day EMA.
While going back up, all the earlier supports will act as resistances. And with BNF being more bearish than NIFTY generally, you will need good support from Banks for this up-move.
Global markets are trying to stabilise after their Monday night fall.
Once again, the market is overly bearish. There are very few puts sold for the monthly expiry. Let us see if that changes at the beginning of the day.
A gentle reminder that it is NOT the BANK NIFTY expiry today. Both NIFTY and BANK NIFTY will be expiring tomorrow.
