Levels and Plan for 18th Feb

The Nifty auctioned either side of the 8840 number and dropped lower at the close. We await a cross of 8840 to confirm our Monthly Feb target of 9035

 

Nifty FEB  FNf_Compo1

 

Background / Previous Auctions :

 

Medium Term : On Friday May 16th 2014, we saw a  range of 7560- 7125 (spot prices) and we believe it  forms the backdrop of the moves we may see in the Nifty for a considerable amount of time, as it was a 5 sigma event.The auction remains positive as long as we close above the highs of that day (May16).

 

 

There was a failed auction noted at the lows on 17/10 at 7723 which is a reference point and support line for the future.

 

 

 

At the end of Dec 2014 we had reason to believe the the long auction in the medium term which started at 5920 early in 2014 may be consolidating for some time. However the Jan auction shows that the move has not terminated yet and we still looking at 10400- 10800 targets through the coming year as long as we stay above 8200 now.

 

Weekly levels  : 

(first updated 15/02)

 

(On spot prices)

Last week we spoke about a close above 8636 essential to negate weakness and the Nifty responded by going 185 points higher to hit 8822 just short of the 8840 cash supply. This week we watch 8842 to confirm our projected view for 9035 cash.

 

8755 spot and 8713 spot will be the support band this week with bulls having to protect 8713 at all costs on all dips.

We will update this para as the week progresses.

 

Observations in Today’s/ Previous  sessions :

 

(based on Fut prices)

 

#) The NF profile balanced off after coming close to the imbalance objective of 8913 mentioned in the previous post

#) vwap of the day was at 8868 with volume of 92.9 L.

#) The NF finished in a spike 8886 to 8829.

#) We mark the areas of Monday’s auction as the place where the second round of selling happened earlier this month as noted below.

#) An auction which opens and continues below spike low can target the 2 anomalies noted below

#) Profile has an anomaly at 8726 which is new support to keep the trend up. However a revisit at 8726 F is pending.

#) Another anomaly at 8796 on 13/02

#) Profile is in balance now and looking to consolidate the gains of last week.

#) Below 8726 long liquidation setup in play for 8643

 

 


 

 

#) Scene of the crime is at 8958 from 30/01 where the seller first appeared. ON 05/02 we saw aggressive selling happening in the rise from 8830 to 8890 .

#) Sellers were seen getting absorbed around 8626- 8644  levels and they will continue as important ref areas in the days to come

#) Profile of 28/01 shows excess at the highs of 9064 which could signal an end to the up auction from 15th Jan.

#) All anomalies pointed out in previous posts have been repaired

 

 

Hypothesis  :

 

( Based on Futures) 

 

K.R.A is 8852 ( K.R.A= key reference area)

 

Hypo1 ) If NF auctions above 8853 then longs  should push the auction to 8873 and 8913  F. Sl for this view to play out fully is at 8826.

 

Hypo2 ) If NF auctions below  8825 then it will move  to 8796 and 8756. Sl for this view will be 8829.

 

 

 

BankNifty FEB F :

 

 

Bnf_Compo

 

Background/ Previous Auctions : 

 

Medium Term-  

18400 BN spot will be the key level to watch in BN over the coming weeks on a closing basis. As long as price stays above 18400 weekly closing the BN can make a move to 23500 levels. Highest volume traded in BN in 2014 was at 15100- 15200 spot levels. This 15100 will be the second layer of support in BN below 18400.

 

Weekly levels :

(first updated 15/02)

 

(based on spot prices)

 

For the coming week upsides in BN possibly only if we cross 19385 decisively. We mentioned 19380 as supply all last week and BN went to 19441 but did not close above 19380.

 

We see 19660 and 19784 as immediate supply during the week. However a cross above 19785 should ensure 19970 quickly ( 185 points)

 

First support lower during the week is at 19240  followed by 19065

 

 

Observations in Today’s/ Previous  sessions :

 

(based on Fut prices)

 

#) The BNF failed auction at 19221 on 13/02 was revisited today on 16/02

#) vwap was at 19431 today with volumes of 32.5 L

# Profile was an outside bar which probed above VAH and below VAL too.

#) Anomaly at 19160 is the big support in BNF now and a failure to get buyers there can invite 18968 and 18756 F again.

 

 


 

#) a buying tail was seen on 10/02 at 18288 and should indicate the end of the down auction from 21130F

#) The profile of 30/01  left behind anomalies at 20560 and 20368 in the Feb F

#) The profile of 12/02 has an anomaly at 19160

#) The profile of 03/02 shows anomaly at 19768

#) VPOC of 30/01 placed at 20256.

#) VPOC of 3/02 is placed at 19610

#) Selling tails seen at 21130 on 28/01

 

 

 

Hypothesis  :

 

( Based on Futures) 

 

K.R.A is 19335 ( K.R.A= key reference area)

 

Hypo1)  IF BNF auctions below  19335  then it will move to 19247 and 19160  . Sl for this view is 19377

 

Hypo2) If BNF auctions above 19377   then it can move to 19455  and 19546  .  Sl for this view is at 19335 .
