Trading strategy for Friday, June 14 – Should you be a buyer or seller today? Here’s what market experts recommend:

Ashwin Ramani, Derivatives & Technical Analyst, SAMCO Securities

The Nifty failed to decisively close above the 23,400 level yet again on Thursday. The Call writers (Bears) ward off a threat from the put writers (Bulls) at the 23,400 Strike in Nifty. Significant call writing was also observed at the 23,500 Strike in the Index for the second consecutive day. The option activity at the 23,500 Strike will provide cues about Nifty’s direction in the coming days.

The Bank Nifty broke past the 50,200 level, but eventually ended 48 points lower 49,847 yesterday.  Strong call writing was observed at the 50,000 Strike in Bank Nifty for the second consecutive day. The call writers (Bears) have sizeable positions at the 50,000 Strike and the option activity at this strike will provide cues about Bank Nifty’s upcoming direction.

Om Mehra, Technical Analyst, SAMCO Securities

The short-term trend for the Nifty is expected to remain neutral to positive unless the 23,200 level is breached. A pullback to the 23,270-23,300 range would present a buying opportunity while breaking above 23,500 could push the index closer to 23,650.

The Bank Nifty once again failed to cross the 50,250, considered as hurdle and was dragged below the 50,000 mark. The immediate support remains at 49,530; if breached, the index could fall towards the 49,200-49,100 range. The contracting hourly Bollinger band indicates a large movement is expected in the coming sessions.

Technically, the Nifty on a daily scale has formed a bearish belt hold pattern. As per this pattern, if the index sustains below 23,350, then profit booking is expected. On the downside, immediate support for the Nifty is placed near 23,000, followed by 22,720, where the 34-Days Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) support is placed.

The Bank Nifty index has formed a bearish Marubozu candlestick pattern following the formation of a tri-star doji, indicating weakness. On the downside, immediate support for the index is placed near 49,000 levels, where the 21-DEMA is placed.”

Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst, LKP Securities

The Nifty has been consistently flat for the last four days, indicating a pause before a sharp move. The direction of this move is not yet known, at least not before any directional breakout. From here, a decisive move above 23,500 might lead to the covering of call writing, which could take the index higher towards 23,800. On the lower end, support is placed at 23,300, below which the index might weaken.
