Nifty
Current: 4,944 (futures: 4,949); Target: NA

Yesterday’s collapse could presage a new downtrend. One-session expectations would be 4,800 and 5,050. Stop-loss long futures and short futures at 4,875 and 5,025, respectively. Book profits on the previously recommended strangle of long 4900p(108) and long 5200c (37). A bearspread of long 4800p (76) and short 4700p (53) costs 23, with a maximum return of 77. It would gain 15-25 if the market falls another 50-75 points.

Bank Nifty
Current: 8,916; (futures: 8,923); Target: 8,675

The financial index saw heavy selling, which may establish a downtrend. If support at 8,800 is broken, the Bank Nifty could fall till 8,650. Keep a stop at 8,025 and short.

Add to the position between 8,750 and 8,800.

Book profits below 8,675. If 9,025 is broken on a rebound, be prepared for a bounceback till 9,150.
