NIFTY Technicals
In NIFTY high amount of call OI at 26,000 and put OI at 24,000, PCR at 0.75. NIFTY FUT indicating LONG UNWINDING week. And in case of BANKNIFTY, PCR stays at 1.26 and FUT with SHORT COVERING.
NIFTY SPOT & FUT's, monthly candle tried to break the SEP month candle low but immediately reversed and the same happpened in the weekly candle also. They tried to breakdown but immediately reversed. A trendline till 23,350 is our concern on NIFTY towards it's fall but the way it goes to the level will be very trapping because enough SUPPORTS have been created towards that level.
A 1HR candle close above 24,951 in SPOT and 25,031.90 in FUT can push NIFTY more higher. Not an FnO week both NIFTY & BANKNIFTY is not indicating a directional trend which is hard for retailers like us so be carefull.
