Yesterday, NIFTY was on an uptrend following all the positive vaccine news and moved up from 13,250 to 13,350. Click here for a detailed analysis of Friday’s market and stock movements.
Bank Nifty, has crossed the resistance at 30,200 and closed above it. Let’s see if we can see a major breakout in Bank Nifty now.
NIFTY and Bank Nifty are at such highs even after the 2 heavyweights RELIANCE and HDFCBANK pulling them down. When these start to move up, we can see a larger rally in the market.
The US and European markets are closed. NASDAQ is up. Asian markets are mixed. SGX NIFTY is trading at 13,408, which is 50 points higher, indicating a flat to gap up opening in the Indian Market.
If NIFTY is opening with a huge gap up opening, I feel it will move down from there.
NIFTY is likely to trade between 13,250 and 13,450.
Highest Call Open Interest at 13,500, followed by 13,600. Highest Put Open Interest at 13,200, followed by 13,000.
The strong call OI built up at 13,500 indicates a resistance there. It is interesting to note the OI shift from 13,300 to 13,600. This indicates bullishness in the market.
Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) net bought shares worth Rs 3,792 crore, whereas domestic institutional investors (DIIs) net sold shares worth Rs 2,767 crore in the Indian equity market.
There seems to be no end to FIIs pumping money into our markets. What sorcery is this?!
PSU Banks are on a dream run of their own. Realty, Metals and Cements took a much needed rest yesterday.
As I always say, such kinds of rallies in the market frightens me. NIFTY is creating all time highs every single day. Moving up 100 points every single day. An unbelievable, unrealistic rally. This can’t sustain. I think a correction will happen and when that happens, it will be severe!
Also, the Government has said that it needs 2 weeks to approve the vaccine. I am not sure if that news has reached all the participants. In that case, can’t the market take rest, cool down, consolidate or even correct for 2 weeks? Will we see that?
My view for this week is NIFTY to trade within 13,000 to 13,500. But there has been an OI shift to 13,600. Let’s see what happens. Follow us on marketfeed app’s livefeed section to get real time updates from the market. All the best for the day!
