The Nifty50 opened with big gap down at 10,169.80 followed by a bit of recovery from day’s low of 10,138.60 in later part of the session. The index still closed 225.40 points lower at 10,234.70, the lowest closing level since April 4, 2018.
Experts expect the most selling pressure could be possible if the index breaks Thursday’s low of 10,138 in coming sessions.
India VIX moved up sharply by 14.68 percent to 20.53 levels. Spurt in VIX from previous day’s low suggests that bears are not loosening their grip and bounce are being sold in the market. Now VIX has to cool down below 17.50-17 zones to get any sign of consolidation, experts said.
According to Pivot charts, the key support level is placed at 10,136.87, followed by 10,039.03. If the index starts moving upwards, key resistance levels to watch out are 10,334.27 and 10,433.83.
The Nifty Bank index closed at 24,783.95, up 537.75 points on Thursday. The important Pivot level, which will act as crucial support for the index, is placed at 24,538.37, followed by 24,292.83. On the upside, key resistance levels are placed at 24,984.77, followed by 25,185.63.
