Banknifty Technical View

Bank Nifty has been on a downward trend for the seventh consecutive day, showing a significant bearish signal with a long candlestick pattern on the daily chart. Moreover, it has dropped below the important 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) in closing terms. Analysts suggest that the index could find support around 47,400, and if it falls below this level, selling pressure might escalate towards 47,050. On the other hand, there’s a resistance around 48,000, marked by active Call writing. If the index manages to break above this resistance decisively, it could trigger short-covering rallies towards 48,500.

Indian Vix
Volatility has been steadily increasing, making the market trend more favorable for traders and causing discomfort for bullish investors. India VIX, known as the fear index, rose by 6.55 percent to reach 18.2 levels, its highest closing level since October 17, 2022. This marks a total uptrend of 78.5 percent over the past 11 consecutive sessions.

FII and DII data
On May 9, foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold net shares worth Rs 6,994.86 crore, whereas domestic institutional investors (DIIs) purchased shares worth Rs 5,642.53 crore, according to provisional data from the NSE.

Put Call Ratio
The Nifty Put-Call ratio (PCR) surged to 0.90 on May 9, up from 0.77 in the previous session. A rising PCR, especially above 0.7 or surpassing 1, signifies that traders are selling more Put options compared to Call options. This typically suggests a strengthening bullish sentiment in the market. Conversely, if the ratio drops below 0.7 or approaches 0.5, it indicates that selling in Call options outweighs selling in Put options, reflecting a bearish sentiment in the market.
