Nifty Technical view
The Nifty index displayed a bullish candlestick pattern on its daily chart. Several factors contribute to this positive momentum, including the formation of higher highs and higher lows, the defense of a rising support trendline, and the upward trend in the momentum indicator RSI. These factors suggest that the upward movement is expected to persist until reaching the levels of 22,308 to 22,423, which represent the 50 percent and 61.82 percent Fibonacci retracement levels from the previous decline. On the downside, the range of 22,040 to 22,000 is seen as a critical support level from a short-term perspective.
Indian Vix
Market participants should monitor the India VIX, also known as the fear index, as it has been holding above the 20 mark. Despite a slight correction to 20.20 levels on Tuesday from 20.6 levels, it had surged by 102 percent over the preceding 13 consecutive trading sessions.
Put Call Ratio
On May 14, the Nifty Put-Call ratio (PCR), a gauge of market sentiment, climbed to 1.02 from the previous session’s level of 0.97. When the PCR exceeds 0.7 or surpasses 1, it suggests that traders are selling more Put options than Call options. This typically indicates a strengthening bullish sentiment in the market. Conversely, if the ratio drops below 0.7 or trends towards 0.5, it implies that selling in Call options outweighs selling in Put options, signaling a bearish sentiment in the market.
