The breach of key support of 16800 along with lower high-low formation signifies extended correction. We believe, for a meaningful pullback to materialise index need to form a higher high-low on the closing basis. Key point to highlight is that, over past six sessions index has declined 1230 points that hauled daily and weekly stochastic oscillator in oversold territory (placed at 13). We expect volatility to gradually subside near oversold territory which would help Nifty to find supportive efforts in the range of 16300-16200

It was only after fully achieving our target of 16500 did the oversold conditions come into play, yesterday. We have until 17220 before such oversold indicators straighten out, but 16840 would be a significant challenge that Nifty needs to close above, before we may be convinced of momentum siding with bulls for the next few days.

Technically, a reiteration of negative bias below 17400 has benefited as Nifty intraday low was 16410 on Monday. The underlying trend remains down as the index formed lower lows along with fall in index PCR OI, indicating trader sentiment is bearish and fresh call writing was seen at strike price 17000 with 9 lakh shares (total 19 lakh shares in last two trading days), Combined with a fall in the option price and IV, it indicates that call writing has happened at these strikes implying immediate resistance at these levels for the near term. Further downsides are likely once the immediate support of 16500 is taken out. only formation of higher high-low would be required to conclude corrective bias.
