The domestic equity market benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are expected to open lower on Monday, following mixed global market cues.
The trends on Gift Nifty also indicate a negative start for the Indian benchmark index. The Gift Nifty was trading around 25,173.50 level, a discount of 48.4 points from the Nifty futures’ previous close.
Sensex and Nifty 50, declined for the third straight day on Friday, dropping by nearly 1% due to significant selling in the IT, auto, and energy sectors amid a sluggish start to the earnings season.
Analysts pointed out that uncertainties surrounding tariffs and mixed signals from global markets further exacerbated the decline.
The Sensex fell by 689.81 points or 0.83%, finishing at 82,500.47. During the trading session, it saw a dip of 748.03 points or 0.89%, hitting a low of 82,442.25.
Similarly, the Nifty 50 decreased by 205.40 points or 0.81%, closing at 25,149.85. For the week, the BSE benchmark declined by 932.42 points or 1.11%, while the Nifty 50 dropped by 311.15 points or 1.22%.
Nifty 50 remains under pressure, having breached the previous swing low on the hourly chart and slipped below the 21 EMA on the daily timeframe. Short-term momentum continues to be weak, as indicated by the RSI’s negative crossover. However, following the recent decline, the index is now testing support near the 200-hour moving average. A sustained move above the 25,150–25,160 zone in the early trades could pave the way for an upswing towards 25,250 and 25,400. On the downside, key support levels are seen at 25,090 and 24,900.
Open Interest Analysis: Significant open interest additions were observed in 25,000 Puts and while heavy OI additions were seen at 25,300 Calls; Put writings were relatively muted on Friday. Maximum OI buildup was seen at 25,500 CE. Meanwhile, substantial put writing at the 25,000 strike.
Strategy: As the index has reached near its support level, a small bounce from the current level can't be ruled out.
Trade: Buy Nifty 17th Jul 25300CE Above 75 TGT 130 SL 44.
