TECHNICAL OUTLOOK: Nifty continues to range ....
Tuesday was another low key affair. No gap this time but markets moved a little lower. Nothing unexpected there. The price damage is still quite limited but the key point is that it has been three sessions now and the high has not been taken out. This is in contrast to the last week move where everyday the market recorded a higher high. If one takes the nearest downswing (Apr high to June low) then at 5700 levels the index ran up 62% retracement of the fall. The main resistance trendline was also here. It had also been preceded by a near-vertical run for 6 sessions. Expiry too was over. So not unusual that the index is finding difficult to make further gains. We also find resistance at 5760 levels where even more resistances are bunched up. So breakout trades above the recent high will also not get you too much, please note. Hence buying dips would have to be the way to go. Nearest support for today to do this is around 5590.
In yesterday's letter we had warned about Bank Nifty hitting some resistances. It had a decent day but still hovers in the resistance range. So nothing has changed for today. If there is a breakout, then we are in a tricky situation. Unlike the Nifty, this index has been rallying vertically now for 8 sessions now. Therefore breakout buying will carry a higher risk. Hence our advice is not to follow a breakout in this name unless you trade intra day and enforce strict stops. Pending long positions should have their stops raised to 11348 or higher. If it drops without rising beyond yesterday high, then make haste to exit longs and more aggressive traders can even short with some nearby stop.
Option activity seemed to be rather limited yesterday and largely confined to near the money strikes. This is more suggestive of traders putting on some short straddles and strangles. Nothing very directional about it. Current OI outstanding show 5700-5800 in Calls and 5500-5300 in puts. So It looks like the big position in 5300 has now moved upward to 5500 and that is slightly bullish signal.
Among stocks, Bhel has fallen big time yesterday as news about the FPO crept in. It has room till about 1920 levels or so before support emerges. All recent declines have seen some strong demand emerge near 1900 levels and that is the one to be watched closely for some opportunity. Ranbaxy has built up a strong resistance at 550 and one should watch that closely for a breakout because it will probably see an upward run if that is crossed. call Ratio spreads are happening at nil cost right now (540-560) and could be attempted if one wants to trade options.
STRATEGY FOR THE DAY: Open should be flat because we have no particular feed coming thru from any area. Trading may also remain a bit lackluster and stock specific. We had mentioned earlier this week that it is time to resort to the Table. That remains the case yet and one may look at stocks that are dropping down into support zones to buy in as there does not appear to be any strong trend on. Just be careful that there is no news element attached to the one that you pick because that could induce some volatility and trip up the table levels.
