The weekly candle turned out to be a doji. The prices are within the range of the 23rd Jan weekly candle. Volatility has subsided.
India’s inflation data will be out today. The previous figure came out at 5.7% and that was better than the estimates. We are expecting CPI at 5.9% this time.
RBI Governor said that the inflation forecast has been given after considering various factors. He added that inflation could drop as the crude oil prices have been moving down.
We can expect lower volatility today as VIX has gone below 13. However, we do not know when the market can volatile again. Look at the VIX chart and you will be amused to see how fast VIX had changed in the last two weeks.
I will watch 17,800 on the downside in NIFTY. 17,915 can be watched on the upside.
