NIFTY created a good bullish green candle on Friday. It completely engulfed Thursday’s candle but found resistance at the week’s high of 19,450.

However, Bank Nifty closed 350 points away from Wednesday’s high. FINNIFTY is also moving with identical patterns.

Will have to see if Kotak shares react as Uday Kotak resigned 4 months ahead of the earlier plan. Hopefully, it will not.

In the last many weeks, Friday’s trade has been an indication of how the next week might go. This Friday closed well in the green with good put selling in the market.

This gives an early indication that short-term bullishness exists. Expecting a bullish closing today.

In Friday’s job report, the US added more jobs than expected, but the unemployment rate hit the highest level since February 2022. Markets didn’t react too much.

Crude oil prices have also given a breakout and moved up to $88/barrel. Watch out Reliance for a positive move, and paint stocks for a negative move.

The Fed Interest rate hike decision is coming in the middle of September. Market participants are expecting no rate hikes, hence the recent positivity.

Let’s hope the positivity continues in the market for this week!

What to Expect Today?

Few Asian markets are trading mixed.

The U.S. Futures are trading in the green.

GIFT NIFTY is trading flat at 19,424.

All the factors combined indicate a flat to gap-down opening in the market.

NIFTY has supports at 19,240, 19,200 and 19,100. We can expect resistances at 19,300, 19,360 and 19,400.

BANK NIFTY has supports at 43,950, 43,830 and 43,680. Resistances are at 44,151, 44,277 and 44,520.

Friday’s are turning out to be trend-defining days for the rest of the week.

From today, weekly expiries in BANK NIFTY will be on Wednesday. So do keep in mind that premiums would move differently.

There is still a gap to be filled for NIFTY between 19,240 and 19,200. My expectation is that a bounce will come from this zone, preventing NIFTY from falling deeper.

But trades will be taken based on other factors as well for the day, including support resistances and open interest data. The opening move is likely to be bearish.

Both smallcap and midcap indices hit their all-time highs yesterday. 

Meanwhile, we saw afternoon falls in major indices – NIFTY and BANK NIFTY, contributed by HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank. 

Markets fell due to bad economic data in Europe. But the fall was more sponsored by the aggressive BANK NIFTY put sellers getting in trouble, with PCR moving from 1.03 to just 0.57.

As today is the monthly expiry, we can expect a good trading range in the market. Expecting some good volatile moves today and tomorrow for the market. 

Just like yesterday’s aggressive put sellers, there are strong call sellers in the market today. But for short-covering to be seen 44,400 and 44,500 would need to be broken.

Expecting a trading range between 44,000 and 44,400 to start off the day in BANK NIFTY, but will be a bit cautious for bigger moves. Looking at 19,300-19,500 in NIFTY. Positions will be taken even further from expected trading ranges.

Let’s see how the market makers take things up for the first half of the day!

Hope yesterday’s trading day in FINNIFTY went well. As it did not turn out to be a big movement day, Tuesday was a good day for option sellers. 

I still have an eye out for a good breakout in the market. Some factors that align well is the expected volatility of BANK NIFTY for the monthly expiry, and FIIs returning as net buyers.

Even with this expectation, we still have positions running in the market according to the current market conditions. Only when a move is confirmed, trades will be taken accordingly.

Reliance has filled a gap it created while moving up in July. HDFC BANK has also silently moved up. Let’s see if it will turn out to be an interesting expiry or another consolidating one!

What Happened Yesterday?

NIFTY started the day at 19,298 with a small gap-up of 32 points. After initial consolidation, it broke the day-high afternoon and moved up. But Reliance AGM pulled it back down, and NIFTY closed at 19,306, up by 40 points or 0.21%.

What to Expect Today?

The Asian markets are trading in the green.

The U.S. Futures are trading slightly in the green.

GIFT NIFTY is trading slightly flat at 19,342.

All the factors combined indicate a flat opening in the market.

NIFTY has supports at 19,240, 19,200 and 19,120. We can expect resistances at 19,360 19,400 and 19,500.

BANK NIFTY has supports at 44,277, 44,150 and 43,950. Resistances are at 44,520, 44,600 and 44,800.

INDIA VIX is higher, at 12.39, the highest closing since May. 

Reliance AGM created volatility in the stock, as expected. But what was unexpected was the solo show by HDFC Bank which took up Bank Nifty consistently throughout the day.

August has been a very happening month, just look at BANK NIFTY’s 2,000+ point trading range to understand. And now as we move into the last few days of August, I am expecting more volatility. 

Now when we look at BANK NIFTY, both HDFC Bank and Kotak Bank are trying to bounce back after recent falls. Important buy levels are currently being respected and contributing to moves in the market.

So for this FINNIFTY expiry today, I am expecting a trading range of 19,600-20,000. Only if the premiums are too low, you can look at closer strikes with strict SLs in place.

I am expecting FIIs to return to the market this afternoon and push it higher, if European markets continue to be in the green. Watching for a breakout in the major indices.

Nifty closed at 19,306, up by 40 points or 0.21%.

Nifty chart August 28 - post-market analysis

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 44,253 with a small gap-up of 22 points. After the initial consolidation, Bank Nifty moved up nearly 410 points from the intraday low of 44,200 to 44,610— crossing the important resistance of 44,500. BNF closed at 44,494, up by 263 points or 0.6%. 

Bank Nifty chart August 28 - post-market analysis

All indices except Nifty IT (-0.46%) and Nifty FMCG (-0.23%) closed in the green. Nifty Realty (+0.94%) moved up the most. 

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

Today’s Moves

PowerGrid (+2.69%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer on the back of strong volumes.

Indiabulls Housing Finance (+10.99%) surged. Recently, the company repaid ₹2,232 crore of external commercial borrowings (ECBs) raised in 2018 from foreign banks.

Reliance (-1%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. The company held its Annual General Meeting today. The next generation of Ambani family – Isha, Akash and Anant Ambani – will join the board of RIL. Mukesh Ambani will remain as the Chairman for 5 years.

Markets Ahead

Markets took support from the lows created on Friday and gave a small retracement. As the markets were under huge selling pressure, there was not enough strength to see a quick up-move. But the indices are holding the low levels.

Nifty: The index has closed above the important resistance of 19,300. That level can now act as immediate support. But the major support will be the 19,240 zone. And if there’s a gap down or flat opening below 19,300, 19,240 levels will be tested again, and the index might even fall to 19,100 and 18,900 levels.

Meanwhile, the immediate resistance to look out for will be today’s high of 19,360. A breakout from there can give us targets of 19,420 and 19,475. 

Bank Nifty: The index couldn’t close above 44,500, but the buying strength is still there. If there’s a gap-up opening or flat opening followed by an up-move, the index can move further up to 44,950 levels. In that case, the support zone to watch will be 44,500 levels. If there’s a gap down opening or negative movement after opening, BNF can fall to 44,200 levels (which was today’s swing and there’s also a trendline support drawn from last week’s low).

Markets have not turned bullish completely and major resistance of 19,500 in Nifty and 45,000 in Bank Nifty have to be crossed to expect a reversal. Till then, the indices can be sold in every uptick.

Fin Nifty: Being Fin Nifty expiry tomorrow, the important support zone to watch is 19,500-520 levels. The important resistance is 19,900. A breakout from today’s high of 19,800 will take the index to 19,900 and eventually to 20,000 levels. A breakdown from 19,740 levels will take the index down to 19,600 levels and can be choppy in this zone.

Reliance’s AGM is expected to bring in volatility to the stock. Do watch out for crazy moves, in fact, avoid it if you can at 2 PM.

This week is already expected to be volatile, so let’s see what happens with today’s gap-up. There is heavy call writing near the spot price for NIFTY, so it will be interesting to see how the market behaves in case of a gap-up.

Considering all international markets are green, we can expect NIFTY to show bullishness today. A close above 19,400 is essential to display stability.

Bank NIFTY and FINNIFTY are currently showing more strength than NIFTY. So do watch out for afternoon strength in these indices.

NIFTY started the day at 19,535 with a gap-up of 91 points (above the important psychological round level resistance of 19,500). It moved with a lot of strength to 19,580 levels, where the index made an evening star pattern, and gave a fall of nearly 200 points to 19,370 (day’s low)— not respecting any supports in between and gave a very bearish closing below 19,400. Nifty closed at 19,386, down by 57 points or 0.29% 

Nifty chart August 24 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 44,704 with a gap-up of 225 points. Similar to Nifty, Bank Nifty also moved up with a lot of strength initially to 44,950 levels. That level acted as resistance, and the index fell 500 points from the day’s high to 44,430 levels.  BNF closed at 44,496, up by 17 points or 0.04%. 

Bank Nifty chart August 24 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

Nifty PSU Bank saw a decline of 0.65% today, while Nifty IT (+0.6%) gained the most.

Major Asian markets closed up to 2% in the green. European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

BPCL (+1.87) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. 

Indiabulls Real Estate (+10.45%) surged on the back of strong volumes.

Coforge (+9.72%) zoomed after 1.54 crore shares (26% stake) of the company changed hands in a block deal.

Stocks of companies related to the Chandraayan-3 mission Paras Defence & Space Tech (+6.07%), MTAR Tech (+3.8%), and others moved up with strength.

Reliance (-1.68%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. However, reports indicate that experts are optimistic about RIL stock in the wake of QIA’s investment in Reliance Retail.

Brightcom Group (-4.98%) continued its sharp fall. Yesterday, SEBI barred the company’s CEO and CFO from the Board of Directors due to alleged financial fraud. The stock has crashed ~15% in 5 days.

Markets Ahead

As said in our earlier post-market reports, Bank Nifty is looking stronger than Nifty. Today, while Nifty was crashing, Bank Nifty was holding strong. However, both indices have given a closing below major support zones— 19,400 in Nifty and 44,500 in Bank Nifty.

Nifty: Today, the index took support near 19,350-360 levels, and that can be viewed as immediate support. Breaching of these levels can give us targets of 19,300 and 19,250 on the downside. The immediate resistance to watch out for will be 19,400-420 levels. The upside move can be slow after the huge sell-off. But if 19,400 is crossed, 19,500 can be re-tested and the down move could continue.

Bank Nifty: The bearish head and shoulder pattern in Bank Nifty is intact, and the index couldn’t give a closing above it. BNF has been under selling pressure. Now, the immediate support/resistance will be 44,500 levels as the markets have closed just near it. If the market stays below 44,500 levels, 44,200 will be the first target, and 44,000 will be the second target. On the upside, BNF can face multiple rejections. So, wait for confirmation for bullish trades.

Being an expiry today, 19,500 put sellers who sold after the gap-up opening got trapped as markets reversed from there and fell. For non-directional option sellers, it was comparatively easier to manage as puts were gradually increasing. But a directional market is never good for non-directional option sellers, so they must have been a slight loss.

All eyes will be on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, who is headlining the Jackson Hole conference on Friday. He is expected to outline the US Fed’s positions on rate adjustments and inflation in the near term, among other things.
