PostMortem on BankNifty Today & Analysis of 21 DEC 2022
Banknifty made some deep moves today engaging 3 of its support/resistance areas. Lets analyze it one by one
Totally unexpected gap up open 43525 on weak global cues and then 3 up candles. From there a test of 1st support 43247 at 12.10 - a fail. Further down move and 2nd support of 42884 at 13.50 - also a fail.
Then we had the 3rd support 42570 test at 13.55 - a pass. The moves from 14.00 to close had again a retest of 42884 resistance level - a fail and then the closing near the bottom of the day just above the support level.
Breaking 2 support lines will usually change my bias to bearish side. But i would need to know why it broke today and going by the deep cuts i assume there should be some macro or geo-political news. Because last time i checked the bank nifty components almost all of them were trading with the same downslope - this agreement comes only if there is a news element.
Today's move has driven the options premium through the roof. Some PE premiums went up more than 100%.
41500 PE which is 1100pts away from the spot went up from 9.49 to 106.9 in 8mts. a surge of 1032.47%. What was the reason for this - need to find out.
Was this premium justified - absolutely not. Final close for the day was at 14.1 (down 86.9% from the HOD)
The volume of the CE options - again immensely higher. 49000 CE was traded for 74.22 lakhs a strike thats 6400pts 15% away with 1 DTE

Of the bank nifty components:
Almost all the banks had a similar slope of fall. Since there is alignment today i am not discussing the patterns for each banks in specific.
If all of them are moving same way - it has to do with macro or event in specific. Some possible reasons could be - RBI intervention - change in rates, SLR or liquidity, change in NPA calculation metrics. Govt intervention - loan write off, issue of new loans w/o collateral, lack of funding, liquidity issues. Govt. fiscal deficit. Lock down fears. GDP calculation mismatch. Corruption etc.
If its not any of these - then its the time to start thinking about shorting bank nifty index. After all the run up from 32500 to 43000 was so crazy.

Both 15mts and 1hr TF is showing bullish reversal patterns - but i am not convinced yet. The fall is not technical, it could be fundamental. If it was a technical move then we need follow throughs on 22nd and 23rd. If we do - then its going to be a deadly fall next week.
