Nandish Shah, Derivative Analyst, HDFC Securities: Nifty continued its downward journey for the fourth day on the trot to end the day with the losses of 63 points to close at 18115 levels. Long unwinding is seen in the Nifty Futures where Open Interest fell by 2% with Nifty falling by 0.35%.

Nifty is likely to find support in the vicinity of 17950 – 18000 levels. On the higher side, an immediate resistance is seen in the vicinity of 18200 – 18430 levels where we have seen. Long unwinding in the Nifty futures(No fresh short build up), Long build up in the Bank Nifty Futures and Put writing at 18000 levels indicate that one should be bearish only below 17950 levels.

Accumulate longs on decline with the stop loss of 17950 levels. On the higher side 18200-18300 levels will act as a strong resistance. In Bank Nifty, our advice is to go long with trailing stop loss of 39800 levels. On the higher side 40700-41000 level may act as resistance going forward.

V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services:

After the 1.2% cut in Nifty last week, the market will try to stage a comeback on the back of the excellent numbers from ICICI Bank and reasonably good numbers from Reliance. A distinct trend in the market for many sessions now has been the outperformance of Bank Nifty which was up 2.5% last week when Nifty was down 1.2%. This outperformance is justified by the bank results so far and the trend may continue since there is valuation comfort in the banking segment in an otherwise overvalued market. So, even if the market turns weak, banking may show resilience. 

The threat to the bulls is likely to come from the FIIs who have turned into sustained sellers. The Q2 results, so far, look impressive particularly in energy, metals, mining, IT and banking. The resurgence of Covid cases in the Eastern parts, particularly West Bengal, has to be watched.
