Volatile Monthly Expiry for Nifty! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day flat at 20,108 with a small gap-up of 12 points. After opening, the index fell sharply by over 100 points to 20,015 levels. It took support there and bounced back up to 20,150 levels with heavy volatility. Nifty closed at 20,133, up by 36 points or 0.18%.

Other indices except Nifty PSU Bank (-1.1%) closed flat-to-green. Nifty Pharma (+1.56%) and Nifty Realty (+1.4%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mostly in the green. European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

UltraTech Cement (+3.1%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. Yesterday, the company acquired the cement grinding assets of Burnpur Cement Ltd for ₹169.78 crore. 

Tata Technologies made a stellar debut in the stock market today. Its shares listed at ₹1,200 per share, a premium of 140% over its issue price of ₹500 per share.

New India Assurance (+10%) surged on the back of strong volumes.

Adani Ent (-1.59%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Aether Industries (-5.99%) fell sharply for the second day in a row after a fire at the company’s Surat facility left six people dead and one missing.

Markets Ahead

After the strong upward rally, major Indian indices experienced a slight retracement with some volatility today. However, the key support levels remained intact. This indicates that the markets continue to maintain a bullish stance.

Nifty: The major support to monitor is the round levels of 20,000. The immediate support is near 20,100. If there’s a breakdown from this level, the index could decline to 20,000 and further to 19,960 levels. Meanwhile, the resistance to keep an eye on is near the all-time high (ATH) level of 20,200.

Bank Nifty: The index is encountering resistance at the crucial breakdown levels of 44,600, where the cup and handle pattern was also formed. That level has to be taken out for the index to move to 45,000 and 45,500. On the other hand, the immediate support to observe is 44,300. If there’s a breakdown from this level, the index could decline to 44,000 and 43,800 levels.

S&P Global Rating has upgraded India’s GDP growth from 6.0% to 6.4% for FY24. This has brought some optimism to the broad market.

Nifty Towards ATH, Regains 20,000! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,976 with a gap-up of 86 points. Even after the big gap up, the index continued moving up with a lot of strength to 20,100 levels— making a 150-point upward rally. Nifty closed at 20,096, up by 206 points or 1.04%.

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 44,081 with a gap-up of 201 points. After initial consolidation near 44,000 levels, the index gave a breakout and moved up with strength to 44,630 levels— making an intraday movement of more than 600 points. BNF closed at 44,566, up by 685 points or 1.56%.

All indices except Nifty Realty (-0.5%) and Nifty Media (-0.13%) closed in the green. Nifty Auto (+1.63%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading flat-to-green.

Today’s Moves

Axis Bank (+3.82%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The bank has entered into a credit card point conversion partnership with Air India.

Aster DM Health (+18.8%) surged after the company said its subsidiary would sell its stake in Aster DM Healthcare FZC to Alpha GCC for ~₹8,125 crore).

Adani Ent (-1.1%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Aether Industries (-8.41%) crashed after the company reported a fire at its Surat facility early that injured 25 people.

Markets Ahead

The Indian stock markets are looking strong, which is evident in today’s closing. Opting option buying trades could be a good strategy in the upcoming days, especially during market dips or corrections. The all-time high (ATH) in Nifty and Bank Nifty can be expected before the state election results kick in!

Nifty: The immediate support for the index is near the round levels of 20,000. The resistance will be near 20,200 (ATH levels). So if there’s a gap down or gap up tomorrow, there could be buying seen again after some retracement. On the other hand, a flat opening may lead to a continuation of the up-move.

Bank Nifty: The index is at an interesting breakout resistance level of 44,600, also forming a cup and handle pattern. A breakout could take the index up to 46,000 levels (as it’s still far from ATH when compared to Nifty). Meanwhile, the key support to watch is near 44,400 levels. A breakdown from there may take BNF down to 44,000 levels.

As per reports, the Indian stock markets are expected to see an inflow of around ₹30,000 crore from a major US pension fund from 2024 onwards, which could give a boost to local stocks!

Peaceful Nifty Expiry. Markets at Breakout Levels! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day flat at 19,828. After an initial up-move to 19,875 levels, the index fell sharply to the 19,800 support levels and consolidated the rest of the day. Nifty closed at 19,802, down by 9.85 points or 0.05%.

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day flat at 43,452. The index had a calm day following yesterday’s volatility. It consolidated within a range of 100 points, roughly between 43,550 and 43,650. It can also be seen as a consolidation between the significant resistance at 43,700 and the support at 43,500. BNF closed at 43,577, up by 127 points or 0.29%.

All indices except Nifty Pharma (-1.57%) and Nifty IT (-0.59%) closed flat-to-green. Nifty Realty (+1.03%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading mixed.

Today’s Moves

Hero MotoCorp (+4.52%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock has rallied over 15% in nine days after the company reported record festive sales.

Shares of EID Parry (+8.37%) surged after promoters divested a 2.27% stake in the company for ₹190 crore through an open market transaction.

HPCL (+6.94%) moved up with strength as crude oil prices dropped sharply after OPEC+ postponed its meeting to decide on oil output.

Honasa Consumer (Mamaearth) hit a 20% upper circuit after the company reported a 94% YoY growth in Q2 net profit.

Cipla (-7.93%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The US Food & Drug Administration issued a letter that flagged data issues at the pharma company’s unit in Madhya Pradesh.

Tube Investments (-8.25%) fell sharply today.

Markets Ahead

Being the weekly expiry for Nifty, the index remained stable and maintained its upper levels. Bank Nifty also sustained its upper levels after recovering from yesterday. However, both Nifty and BNF need to overcome their respective major resistances to achieve a clear breakout.

Nifty: The index has immediate support near 19,800. If there’s a breakdown from this level, the index may decline to 19,700 and 19,630 levels. Meanwhile, the resistance to monitor is approximately at 19,860. A breakout from this level might lead to targets of 20,000.

Bank Nifty: A major resistance to watch out for in BNF is 43,700. A breakout from this level could potentially lead to targets of 43,900 and the round level of 44,000. On the other hand, the immediate support lies near 43,500 levels. If there’s a breakdown from there, the index may decline to 43,200 levels.

India VIX remains steady, and the markets are currently stable. Confirmation of a reversal and an uptrend may occur with a further breakout from key resistance levels. In the event of a positive market reversal, you could focus more on Bank Nifty as it’s further away from the all-time high (ATH) compared to Nifty. This suggests that BNF has the potential to move swiftly to cover the gap.

Nifty Up, Bank Nifty Down! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day flat at 19,784. Initially, Nifty rose to yesterday’s high of 19,830 levels, took rejection there, and experienced a sharp decline of nearly 120 points to the support level at 19,700. Then, it bounced back 120 points! Nifty closed at 19,811, up by 28 points or 0.14%.

Nifty chart November 22- post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day flat at 43,663. The index made higher lows and fell nearly 460 points to 43,230 levels. Then, it made a sharp retracement of 245 points. BNF closed at 43,449, down by 239 points or 0.55%.

Nifty PSU Bank (-1.14%) fell the most, while Nifty IT (+0.74%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading flat-to-green.

Today’s Moves

BPCL (+3.63%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The company’s board will meet on November 29 to consider interim dividend for FY24.

CG Power (+19.9%) surged after the company said it would set up an outsourced semiconductor assembly and test facility in India.

Share of Vardhman Textiles (+9.06%), RSMW (+8.8%), Donear Industries (+10.4%), and others were in demand due to analysts’ optimistic outlook for the textile industry.

IndusInd Bank (-2.11%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The bank’s promoters have denied claims of raising funds by pledging their stake.

Markets Ahead

Both Nifty and Bank Nifty had their fair share of volatility today. While Nifty fell and recovered, Bank Nifty declined and recovered half of the fall— indicating a lack of strength in BNF when compared to Nifty. Even after these volatile moves, it’s surprising to note that India Vix has cooled down.

Nifty: The immediate level to monitor is 19,800 (where the maximum straddle Open Interest is concentrated). Depending on the price action from this level, the index could potentially move upward to 19,860 and 20,000 levels eventually.

Bank Nifty: The previous swing low at 43,200 levels could serve as immediate support. If there’s a breakdown from 43,500, potential targets could be 44,000 and 43,500. On the other hand, 43,200 may act as a significant resistance. A breakout from there might lead to targets of 43,700 and 43,800.

Considering the weakness in BNF, taking advantage of sell-on-rise opportunities might be a smart approach until 43,500 is crossed. 19,800 holds significance for tomorrow’s Nifty weekly expiry. Monitoring the price action around these levels is crucial, and planning a directional trade accordingly could be a strategic move.

Even though the US Federal Reserve adopted a cautious stance in its minutes and refrained from indicating a rate cut, the Indian market managed to recover from the day’s correction and ended with small gains. Meanwhile, 4 out of 5 IPOs have been fully subscribed!

Bank Nifty Holding Down Nifty! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,770 with a gap-up of 77 points (well above the important resistance zone). After initial consolidation, the index moved up to 19,830 levels but faced rejection. It then fell back to the opening levels and consolidated. Nifty closed at 19,783, up by 89 points or 0.45%.

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 43,790 with a gap-up of 207 points. The index mostly consolidated during the first half, but gave a sharp fall to 53,585 levels after 1 PM. Then, BNF bounced back and later consolidated. BNF closed at 43,689, up by 104 points or 0.24%.

All indices except Nifty PSU Bank (-0.35%), Nifty IT (-0.18%), and Nifty FMCG (-0.16%) closed in the green. Nifty Metal (+1.2%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. UK’s FTSE100 and France’s CAC40 are currently trading in the red, while Germany’s DAX is trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

SBI Life Insurance (+2.7%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. 

RattanIndia Ent (+17.1%) hit a 52-week high after the company’s subsidiary, Neobrands, launched its casual fashion brand.

Coal India (-3.9%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The drop came after the stock traded ex-dividend.

KPIT Tech (-7.28%) fell sharply after Kotak Institutional Equities downgraded the stock to “Sell”, with a target price of ₹940.

Shares of ONGC (-3.36%) turned ex-dividend today.

Markets Ahead

Bank Nifty is currently holding key resistance levels and is unable to cross them. Meanwhile, Nifty was trying to move up, but Bank Nifty was holding it down. We could expect a directional move soon, depending on whether there is a breakout or breakdown from the current levels.

Nifty: The crucial support level to watch is around 19,750. A breach of this level could lead the index to fall to around 19,700 levels (potentially filling the gap). On the other hand, a breakout from the resistance at 19,800 might push the index upward to 19,860 levels.

Bank Nifty: The major resistance is located near 43,700, coinciding with the highest Open Interest (OI) in weekly contracts. A breakout from that level could potentially trigger a short-covering rally, pushing the index to 44,000 and 44,200. Meanwhile, a breakdown from 43,650 may lead the index down to 43,500 and 43,000 eventually.

Considering tomorrow’s weekly expiry for Bank Nifty and the recent consolidation, we could expect a directional move in BNF. So keep a close watch on breakout and breakdown levels and make trading decisions accordingly!

Nifty chart November 20 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day flat at 43,591. The index initially showed strength by moving up to the 43,700 resistance zone. Then, it made a double-top and fell to 43,500 levels. After all the volatile moves, the index consolidated and BNF closed flat at 43,584, up by 1 point or 0.00%.

Nifty Auto (-0.76%) fell the most, while Nifty IT (+0.6%) moved up the most today.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. UK’s FTSE100 is currently trading in the red, while France’s CAC40 and Germany’s DAX (+2%) are trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

Divi’s Labs (+2.02%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock extended gains for the fourth day in a row. 

Tata Investment Corp (+15.17%) rallied ahead of Tata Technologies’ IPO on Nov 22.

Latent View (+9.25%) surged on the back of strong volumes.

Adani Enterprises (-2.67%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. As per a Reuters report, Indian investigators aim to resume a probe into Adani Group. The inquiry focuses on suspected coal import overvaluation.

Bajaj Finance (-2.11%) fell after the lender temporarily suspended issuing member ID cards to customers following RBI’s order.

Shares of Balkrishna Industries (-5.51%) fell sharply, extending losses for the second straight session. 

Markets Ahead

The Indian markets are currently holding near crucial resistance levels. However, the rise in India VIX and a PCR of 0.73 suggest a degree of bearish sentiment (especially in Bank Nifty). Given that both indices have been trading in a range, a decisive breakout or breakdown from these levels could lead to significant moves in the respective directions.

Nifty: The critical support level to monitor is around 19,660. If there’s a breakdown from this level, potential targets in the index could be 19,600 and 19,500. On the other, the resistance to keep an eye on is at 19,720. A breakout from this level might lead to targets of 19,760, 19,800, and 19,860.

Bank Nifty: The key resistance level to monitor is at 43,800. A breakout from this level could propel the index to 44,000 and 44,200 levels. Meanwhile, the support level to keep an eye on is around 43,400. A breakdown from this level might lead to targets of 43,000 and 42,500 eventually.

Following today’s consolidation, the upcoming FINNIFTY expiry tomorrow could be volatile. So stay alert for directional movements and trade with caution.

Momentum Lost in Nifty and Bank Nifty! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,674 with a gap-down of 91 points. After opening, the index made a strong recovery of more than 130 points to 19,800 levels. For the rest of the day, it consolidated in a range with a negative bias. Nifty closed at 19,731, down by 33 points or 0.17%.

Nifty chart Nov 17 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 43,656 with a gap-down of 504 points (below the 44,000 support zones). After initial volatility, 43,800 acted as strong resistance, and the index consolidated with a negative bias. BNF closed at 43,583, down by 577 points or 1.31%.

Other indices except Nifty PSU Bank (-2.39%), FIN NIFTY (-0.9%), and Nifty IT (-0.25%) closed in the green.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

SBI Life Insurance (+3.97%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock extended gains for the third day in a row.

Tata Investment Corp (+20%) surged on account of value unlocking opportunity with Tata Technologies IPO. The public offer opens for subscription on November 22.

Varroc Engineering (+16.8%) surged on the back of strong volumes.

State Bank of India (-3.69%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

RBL Bank (-7.7%), Aditya Birla Capital (-5.6%), SBI Card (-5.14%), and other banking and NBFC stocks crashed after the RBI tightened the norms for personal loans and credit cards.

Markets Ahead

Markets gave a strong closing on a weekly time frame. Looking at the daily timeframe, there is a retracement of 38% in the Fibonacci levels for Bank Nifty. However, it’s important to note that this retracement is for the uptrend from 42,100 levels. When examining the same retracement levels from 46,300 levels, it coincides with the 50% rejection zone. This suggests a bearish sentiment on an even larger time frame.

On the other hand, Nifty looks stronger than Bank Nifty, and no retracement was observed. So if Bank Nifty shows weakness, there is a possibility that Nifty might experience a slight dip as well.

Nifty: The key support levels for the index are at 19,600 and 19,500. If there’s a breakdown from 19,630, potential targets could be 19,500 and 19,400. On the other hand, the major resistance level to monitor is around 19,860. A breakout from there might set a target of 20,000.

Bank Nifty: A vital support level to monitor is around 43,400. A breakdown from this level could confirm short-term bearishness, with potential downside targets at 43,000 and 42,500. On the other hand, significant resistance is evident near 44,800, while the immediate resistance lies at 44,000. A breakout from there could cause the index to rise to 44,400 and 44,800.

The Indian stock market displayed a mixed performance today, marked by a decline in financial stocks as RBI tightened consumer lending rules. Meanwhile, global markets have been strong due to the easing U.S. interest rate outlook and a decline in oil prices.

20,000 Loading for Nifty? – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day flat at 19,674. After initially falling to the previous swing levels of 19,630, there was no looking back! The index rallied nearly 250 points, moving from the intraday low of 19,627 to 19,875 levels. Even though the index tried to take resistance at 19,700 and 19,800 along the way, it consistently moved up. In the final 30 mins of trading, there was a notable decline of 150 points— bringing the index down to 19,725 levels. Nifty closed at 19,765, up by 89 points or 0.46%.

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 44,251 with a gap-up of 50 points. After consolidating within yesterday’s range until 11:00 AM, the index experienced a breakout, surging over 100 points to reach 44,400 levels. However, it faced resistance, leading to a decline. Despite attempting to return to those levels, the index faced rejection for the second time, resulting in a sharp drop of over 350 points in just 30 minutes. BNF closed at 44,161, down by 40 points or 0.09%.

All indices except Nifty PSU Bank (-0.24%) and Nifty FMCG (-0.15%) closed flat-to-green. Nifty IT (+2.69%) moved up the most.

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

Today’s Moves

Hero MotoCorp (+3.2%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The two-wheeler maker marked its highest-ever festive retail sales, surpassing the 14 lakh unit mark.

Alok Industries (+9.79%) surged on the back of strong volumes.

Coforge (+6.7%), Mphasis (+4.23%), TCS (+2.7%), TechM (+2.8%), and other IT stocks rallied for the second day in a row, supported by softer-than-expected inflation data in the US. 

PowerGrid (-1.45%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The stock turned ex-dividend today.

Kalyan Jewellers (-4.94%) fell sharply after brokerage firm ICICI Securities downgraded the stock from ‘Buy’ to ‘Add’.

Markets Ahead

Nifty was on steroids and moved with a lot of strength! As discussed in yesterday’s post-market report, Indian markets have turned bullish and buying on dips would be an ideal strategy. As we highlighted, focusing on long-side trades in Nifty was a wise move, given the index’s potential for upward movement. This strategy has proven to be effective in today’s market session.

Both indices experienced a significant drop in the last half-hour of trading. Whether this is merely profit booking or an indication of more incoming declines remains to be seen.

Nifty: The immediate resistance to watch out for is 19,800. A breakout from there could give us targets of 19,870 (today’s high) and 19,910. Meanwhile, the support can be seen near 19,700 levels (the earlier resistance now acting as support). A breakdown from there may give us targets of 19,635 and 19,500 eventually.

Bank Nifty: There is clear resistance near 44,400 levels. A breakout from there may take the index up to 44,500. The major support to look out for is the 44,000 round levels. A breakdown could give us targets of 43,800 and 43,700.

Bank Nifty is looking weaker than Nifty. If there’s a flat or gap-down opening tomorrow, considering short trades in both indices could be a strategic move. On the other hand, if there’s a minor correction following a big upward rally and the index opens flat and moves upward, planning buy-in-dips trades might be a suitable approach.

Being Nifty expiry today, option sellers would have been in trouble as CE premiums were seeing gamma spikes. Option premiums were very erratic, and the last 150-point fall created panic for PE sellers as well.

Natco Pharma (-4.48%) fell sharply despite the company reporting a 6x jump in net profit to ₹369 crore in Q2.

Markets Ahead

Both Nifty and Bank Nifty have crossed their important resistance levels, indicating a bullish trend.

Nifty: The crucial resistance to monitor is at 19,700. A breakout from this level might lead Nifty to touch 19,850. On the other hand, the immediate support stands at 19,650. If there’s a breakdown from this point, the index might experience a decline to 19,580 and 19,500 eventually. Given the current bullish trend in the markets, considering buying opportunities during each dip could be a strategic approach.

Bank Nifty: The critical support level to keep an eye on is 44,150. If this level is breached, BNF could potentially decline to the gap-filling zone at 43,900. Meanwhile, a breakout from 44,300 (resistance level) could propel BNF upward, reaching 44,300 initially and eventually climbing to 44,500.

There seems to be more space for Nifty to move on the upside than Bank Nifty. So you could take your trades accordingly!

The big gap-up today was influenced by positive global signals, particularly the softer-than-expected inflation data in the US and the UK. This suggests optimism regarding a potential end to the interest rate cycle (bond yields have also come down). Moreover, the decline in India’s CPI inflation further contributed to the improved market sentiment.

The Indian market continues to consolidate due to various factors: the sudden slowdown in Industrial Production (IIP) growth in Sept 2023, and the declining manufacturing PMI mirror global patterns influenced by rising interest rates and inflation. The weakness in the Indian Rupee has made FIIs adopt a cautious stance. However, the market’s potential decline is limited by robust Q2 earnings, economic stability, and consistent DII investments.

Markets Ahead

The festive Diwali spirit seems to be lifting the markets. Despite a gap-down, there was strong buying in Nifty and BNF today. Both indices kept rising, showing considerable strength. However, it’s important to note that major indices are currently at their respective resistance levels. They need to breach those levels for a continued up-move.

Nifty: The index is currently facing a significant resistance around 19,460 levels. If it successfully breaks out from there, we might see Nifty climb to 19,500 initially and potentially reach 19,560 levels later. Meanwhile, the index could take support at 19,400 levels (the earlier resistance now acting as support). If it falls below this point, the targets on the downside could be 19,350 and 19,300 levels.

On a daily time frame, Nifty is currently close to the breakdown levels and undergoing a re-test. An important Fibonacci retracement level of 50% is located around 19,520 levels. To confirm a bullish trend, the index needs to surpass this level.


Bank Nifty: The major resistance for the index is 43,900 levels. If it manages to break out, we could see the index reaching 44,000 first and 44,500 next. On the other hand, the immediate support to keep an eye on is around 43,700 levels (the previous resistance may now act as support). If the index falls below 43,800 (the previous swing), it might fall to 43,700 and 43,500 levels.

On a daily timeframe, BNF faces a crucial resistance point that aligns with both the breakdown levels and the 33% Fibonacci retracement levels. To confirm a change in trend, the index needs to cross the 44,000 mark.
