TRADE SETUP FOR SEPT 18
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index has formed a bull candle, which continues to maintain a higher high and higher low and a bullish gap below its base ( 25240-25270) signalling extension of the up move. As mentioned in earlier edition, Nifty has recently generated a bullish crossover of 20 and 50 days EMA, highlighting positive bias from short term perspective.
Nifty on yesterday session closed above the immediate resistance area of 25,250 signaling strength and open further upside towards the 25,500 levels in the coming sessions.
On the downside, immediate support is seen near the 24,850 levels being the confluence of the 20- & 50-days EMA and the recent trendline breakout area, holding above the same will keep the bias positive.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 25,430, followed by 25,500 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 25,270, followed by 25,200.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 55,790, followed by 55,000, while downside support is found at 55,250, followed by 54,900.
Derivative Market Analysis
Nifty:
For the weekly expiry, the highest call OI is positioned at 26,000 while the highest put OI is at 25,200.
In the previous session, call writers were active above 25,300 with the highest addition at 25,500. A decisive move above 25,500 could open the gates for Nifty to march towards the 26,000 mark. On the downside, 25,200 remains a strong support, and only a breach below this level could trigger a correction towards 25,000.
The put–call ratio has improved to 1.21, reflecting a supportive undertone.
Bank Nifty:
Bank Nifty’s highest call OI stands at 56,000 followed by 57,000, while the strongest put writing is at 54,000 and 55,000.
In the previous session, call unwinding along with healthy put writing below 55,500 highlighted a solid base formation around 55,500. Interestingly, unwinding at 57,000 suggests the index may be preparing for a shift in its trading range.
Going forward, 55,000 is expected to act as a reliable support zone, while a sustained move above 56,000 could trigger further momentum towards 57,000.
The put–call ratio at 1.08 also indicates a balanced yet positive bias.
