Derivatives Daily Update: 08.02.2012


Upward Bias Continues: February 8, 2012

Nifty February Futures closed up by 33.30 points at 5388.50 after making higher top higher bottom formation. Bank Nifty closed 10.8 points higher at 10341.40. Volumes on both Futures and Options segment were higher than yesterday. Open Interest in Nifty Futures across all the series was higher by 4.78 lk shares at 2.89 Cr shares. Put Call Ratio was marginally lower at 1.14. Volatility as measured by India VIX was lower by 2.5% at 24.27. Dollar Rupee pair was trading slightly higher at 49.38. All in all markets are consolidating with an upward bias.

As can be viewed from today’s data Nifty is attempting to move higher and making a higher high but is not closing above 5400. Equally it is not breaking on lower side either. In such scenario it is advisable to hold on your longs as third successful attempt to move beyond 5400 will possibly take Nifty to 5650 levels. Till the time it finally breaks 5400 on closing basis keep strong stop loss probably below 5300 in extremely short term and 5200 in medium term. Enjoy the Bull Run till that time.
