INDIA VIX fell to 10.88.
Last week in NIFTY was a green candle reaching our exact resistance of 19,230. The Fed Reserve announcement on Wednesday night, helped the market move up with gap-ups on the last 2 days.
This all helped NIFTY move up just nearly 1% for the week. Meanwhile, international markets like the U.S. rallied 4%+ just last week
NIFTY still has not closed above the 19,230 mark. So with today’s gap-up, it will be interesting to see if the market can sustain above this mark.
SBI posted a net profit increase of 8% YoY to ₹14,330 crore, higher than expectations. We can see the effect on the stock, and other PSU Banks in the market today.
But other than this, there are no other major market events this week.
Have a look at the US10Y bond yields on TradingView. It has fallen from its peaks in the last 3 days, and at the same time market has rallied back up.
So, this week’s general expectation is for the market to move up. There is good call OI at 19,300, and it may trigger some green movement at the beginning of the day.
Expecting a good start to the week. All the best for your trading day!
