After relentless selling in recent days, the Nifty has temporarily paused its decline due to an oversold chart setup. However, the index closed significantly below the critical breakdown level of 19250. As long as it stays below 19250, the market may continue to be inclined towards selling on any upward movements. On the downside, a resumption of weakness is expected if the index falls below 18800. This is because put writers are likely to defend the Nifty with substantial positions at 18800, with immediate support placed at 19000.
After a consolidation breakdown on the daily chart, Bank Nifty experienced a 2000-point correction in a short span of time. The index appeared somewhat oversold, leading to a pullback on Friday. However, the sentiment remains predominantly bearish, and any upward movements may still face selling pressure. On the upper side, 43000 could serve as a significant resistance level, as call writers have established substantial positions there. Support can be observed at 42500, where put writers have a strong presence.
