Nifty opened with a gap down of 13 points at 7316 and made a high of 7325. In the Thursday's daily report I had mentioned that "The market is likely to move upwards for the expiry as long as 7300 is protected on the downside." So it was evident that all hell broke loose when this level was taken out. With the first day of new expiry, the market can be expected to consolidate with negative bias.
The support for nifty is at 7210-7172-7131 and the resistance lies at 7263-7318-7345. Nifty June Future has
been trading at 41.42 points premium to the spot. The implied volatility on the
Nifty June Options of ATM strike calls were at 14.87 and for puts were at 16.41. India VIX closed at 16.69.
PCR for Nifty based on open interest was at 0.83 and PCR for the day based on
volumes was at 0.8 for the market.
