Market Pulse: Indian Stocks Set to Surge on Positive Global Trends – Key Insights and Trading Recommendations

Indian Markets Expected to Trade Higher on Tuesday Amidst Positive Global Trends

Market Insights: Nifty Futures and Volatility Indices

The Indian stock market is poised for a positive opening on Tuesday, buoyed by uplifting cues from global markets. In yesterday’s trading session, Nifty futures experienced a decline of 0.67%, settling at 23,457 levels. Concurrently, the India VIX, which measures market volatility, rose by 5%, closing at 14.44.

Options Analysis: Trading Dynamics

On the options front, the sentiment indicates a substantial amount of trading activity. The maximum Call Open Interest (OI) is recorded at the 24,000 strike, followed closely by the 25,000 strike. In contrast, the maximum Put OI stands at the 22,500 strike, with the 23,000 strike also contributing to active trading. These observations indicate a broad trading range for the Nifty, with immediate support and resistance levels identified.

According to Chandan Taparia, Analyst-Derivatives at Motilal Oswal Financial Services Limited, market trends suggest a broader trading range between 22,800 and 23,800, with a narrower focus on 23,200 to 23,600. Taparia notes the formation of a bearish candle on the daily chart accompanied by a longer lower shadow, which signifies a potential pullback from established support zones.

Key Resistance Levels Ahead

In terms of critical price movements, Taparia emphasizes the necessity for Nifty to surpass and maintain levels above 23,450 to initiate an upward trend towards 23,550 and subsequently 23,700. Conversely, support levels are noted at 23,250 and 23,100. This can guide traders in establishing their positions for the upcoming sessions.
