Day trading strategy for Friday

Speaking on intraday trading tips, Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities said, “The short term trend of Nifty remains weak. Any slow down in the downside momentum around the support of 18100-18000 levels in the next 1-2 sessions could result in a sharp upside bounce from the lows. There is no sign of any bottom reversal forming around the supports so far. Immediate resistance for NSE Nifty is placed at 18,240 levels.

“The momentum readings on the lower time frame charts have entered the oversold zone and hence a pullback move could be seen in the near term. However, looking at the overall structure the upside could be limited and it could just be a retracement of the recent corrective phase,” said Ruchit Jain, Lead Research at 5paisa.com.

Nifty call put option data

On Nifty call put ratio, Shilpa Rout, Derivatives Lead Analyst at Prabhudas Lilladher said, “Nifty monthly expiry option chain witnesses PE writers adding their positions of over 50 lakh shares OI at 18000PE, followed by various strikes adding above 45 lakh shares OI from 17000PE till 18200PE strikes. CE writers maximum exposures lies at 19000 strike- each with over 80 lakh shares OI overall, followed by 18500CE – overall 67 lakh shares OI. PCR_OI at 18100 is nearly 3 and 18200 just below 1, which should be monitored for the direction access going ahead.”

Bank Nifty call put option data

“Bank Nifty option chain on weekly basis reflects 42000PE holding the most exposure of 12 lakh shares OI, followed by 42500PE – over 11 lakh shares. CE writers active at 43000 strikes – over 20 lakh shares OI each, which shows the tight trading range for the INDEX going ahead,” said Rout.
