▪️ COMMENTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Long Build-Up: 75 stocks saw an increase in OI and price, suggesting a build-up of long positions. Major ones: NHPC, COALINDIA, IREDA, BPCL, NTPC, etc.
• Short Build-Up: 29 stocks saw an increase in OI and a drop in price. Major ones: AXISBANK, CDSL, JIOFIN, OBEROIRLTY, ANGELONE, etc.
• Short-Covering: 80 stocks saw short-covering, where OI decreased with a price increase. Major ones: INDIANB, JSWENERGY, PNB, UNIONBANK, PGEL, etc.
• Long Unwinding: 26 stocks saw a decline in open interest (OI) along with a fall in price, indicating long unwinding. Major ones: INDIGO, BANDHANBNK, M&M, TCS, KALYANKJIL, etc.
• Private banking stocks remained under pressure after the earnings reaction, with HDFC Bank (-4.91%) and Axis Bank (-5.37%) dragging the indices lower. However, Nifty once again found support near its 100-day EMA (24,135) and recovered more than 100 points from the day's low, while buying in PSU Banks helped limit the decline in Bank Nifty. Both indices continue to consolidate, with Nifty holding the 23,800–24,500/24,600 range and Bank Nifty oscillating between 56,900 and 58,500. As long as these ranges remain intact, the market is likely to stay driven by sector rotation and stock-specific opportunities rather than a broad index move.
• Market breadth remains stable despite the recent consolidation. Around 60% of Nifty 50, 53% of Nifty 500, and 57% of Bank Nifty constituents are trading above their 20-day SMA, while 50% of Nifty 50, 55% of Nifty 500, and 57% of Bank Nifty stocks remain above their 200-day SMA.

• Styrenix (2365): The stock is showing signs of emerging from its correction phase, backed by 7x higher-than-average monthly volumes. The 2,270–2,300 zone is expected to provide immediate support. A sustained move above 2,425 could pave the way for the next major resistance zone of 2,650–2,700.
