We saw buyers respond after many sessions today and the close was near VAH guided by short covering rise in the last hour. But there was also evidence that a determined seller was working away at the rises and a blow away move would not be easy. At the close the move was a spike and spike rules apply in the session tomorrow.
In the Paras below you will find my daily plan for the day at the bottom with weekly support and resistance levels updated on the spot and the medium term auction. It’s a view on 3 different timeframes. Auction Market Theory tells us where to trade. The Order Flow will show us when to trade.
Nifty APR F  |
| 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 9119 the market may have put in a top for the year and should roughly consolidate in the 8200- 9119 zone for the rest of this year.
Weekly levels :
(first updated 26/04) maintain sell on rise :
(On spot prices)
Last week we spoke on “longs being pushed out on rallies” and the market moved lower into the close shorting every rise in sight. Into expiry week the play is clearly between the 8300 PE writers and the 8500 CE players who are much much stronger. The threat therefore is If and when the 8300 PE comes under pressure what kind of liquidation happens.
Price wise on the spot we are seeing signs of short covering happening at levels below 8280 spot and so far we have not seen a decisive close below 8300 strike which should send alarm bells ringing for 8300 PE writers.
The rise from 7723 FA point has one last support at 8257 before 8065 spot 200 points below. Our first support for the coming week is at 8257 below which we are expecting 8143 and 8065 .
The bull feels confident if he closes above 8365 early in the week. If that happens the market bounces off to8410and 8473.
Overall for the week the market is still suspect on bounces till we do not cross 8500 spot convincingly. The vwap for the current settlement is at 8548 currently and should drop closed to 8510 by the week close.
