Shares to buy or sell: The Nifty index ended the trading session at 25,013.15, marking a 0.88% rise. During the day, it peaked at 25,044.0 and a low of 24,756.8. Meanwhile, the Sensex fluctuated between 81,763.28 and 80,813.07, closing at 81,050.0, up 0.72% or 584.81 points from its opening value.

“Nifty Index opened positive and recovered right from its opening low of 24750 zones. It crossed 25000 marks and closed above the same with gains of around 220 points. It formed a bullish candle and an inside Bar on the daily frame but still made lower highs from the last six sessions. Recovery can be seen from lower levels, but follow-up is required to sustain this pullback move. Now till it holds below 25150 zones, weakness could be seen towards 24850 then 24750 zones whereas hurdles are placed at 25150 then 25350 zones,” said Chandan Taparia, Head – Equity Derivatives and Technicals, Wealth Management, MOFSL.

On option front, Maximum Call OI is at 26000 then 27000 strike while Maximum Put OI is at 24000 then 25000 strike. Call writing is seen at 25000 then 25200 strike while Put writing is seen at 25000 then 24000 strike. Option data suggests a broader trading range in between 24500 to 25500 zones while an immediate range between 24700 to 25300 levels.

Bank Nifty

On the Bank Nifty outlook, Taparia further added, “Bank Nifty Index opened on a positive note and managed to hold its opening gains in the initial hour of the session. Later it remained consolidative with a positive bias near 51000 zones and ended with gains of around 540 points. However it formed an inside bar on daily scale and is still forming lower highs from the last six sessions as momentum is missing at higher zones. Now till it holds below 51250 zones weakness could be seen towards 50500 then 50250 levels while on the upside hurdle is seen at 51500 then 51750 zones.”
