Over the last 12 days, the index has consolidated in a 300-point zone. NIFTY is still stuck in this zone, and I feel it is not a bad thing.
The U.S. markets closed flat yesterday, even though the Dow Jones just hit an all-time high yesterday.
Hence, there is still bullishness and money in the market. Domestic Institutional Investors are also sitting on top of extra money to invest in the market.
And now ahead of the weekend, we can expect NIFTY to continue consolidation with some intraday volatility. INDIA VIX is expected to increase today.
And now, we are at a bearish point in the market as per the option sellers' data. When the market moves up with strength, with the PCR continuing to be around 0.5-0.8, then we will be seeing a larger short covering rally up to 22,000.
We will be entering our new NIFTY trades and modifying BANKNIFTY trades today. You can check out our trades on the marketfeed app or our website!
