Strategy / framework shared (trading approach + levels)

Nifty / Nifty Bank tactical plan (options + technical levels)

Core thesis: consolidation with negative bias; watch key put-writer levels; manage risk around crude ~90 and index support bands.

Key steps / logic

  • Use put/call writer ā€œbaseā€ levels and option open interest structure:
    • Critical support (ā€œbase oneā€) around 24,100.
    • If Nifty breaks below base one, potential drift toward:
      • 24,18xx (mentioned as 2418) and 23,977
      • If further violation: 23,923
    • If base one holds, market may trade in a range between base one and RS1.
  • Range / mean-reversion logic (RS1)
    • RS1 defined using EMA-based references:
      • Mentions 10/20/50/100/200 DMA.
      • Specific mapping referenced but unclear due to subtitle noise (mentions ā€œ310 call iterator and 366 is 200 DMAā€).
    • Mentions resistance for range confirmation:
      • ā€œ1020 Demaā€ giving scope of ~200–300 points (as described).
  • Index futures / flow check (FI stat lens)
    • Cash DI and short-covering effects noted.
    • Importance of put shots (~74,000 put writers) supporting 24,100.
