If the Nifty breaks out above 5,250, it could run till around 5,400. On the downside, the first support on a sell off is 5,075. One session swing expectations would be 5,075, 5,325. The previous recommendation of long 5,200c (122) and long 4,900p (22) may be held for more gains. A long 5,300c (72) and short 5,400c (38) costs 34 and could gain 15-25 in value if the 5,300 level is hit.
