Feb 20, 2023 – Market Overview

Hello reader, hope you’ve had a good weekend! Markets are still in a consolidation phase, especially with Nifty and Banknifty facing stiff resistance and yet to give a range breakout. Keeping the post short today as there aren’t much changes we’re seeing that are of great significance.

Important points to note:

  • Nifty still inside a wide range, needs to cross 18170-200 for trend change confirmation. Key short term resistance at 18070.
  • Banknifty’s current trend being a LH-LL (Lower High – Lower Low) formation, it needs to protect recent lows and cross above last week’s high to change the trend (chart shared below).
  • Given current volatility levels, 18000 Straddle would be a good trade to execute for this week’s expiry. Premium collected 170 points, range being 17830 on downside and 18170 on upside for breakevens.
  • Keep an eye out for DLF, which can be an outperformer in the Realty space. First move needed above 380, post which 400-410 range needs to be broken for upside.

Have a good trading day, and may the force be with you!
