Technical Overview

The 50 index incepted the week with the formation of an outside bar candle, however, the bearish implication was negated on Thursday following a gap-up opening as the price action recuperated 687 points from the weekly low of 20769. With this, the index closed higher for 6th consecutive week and remains extremely overbought. The VIX scaled 5.3% higher, and the volatility is anticipated to spike further on readings above 14.1. On the derivative front, the strikes of 21300PE and 22000CE have mounted the highest open interest. The bullish strength is anticipated to remain intact provided the support zone near 21000 remains intact.
