In the last week (14th August Expiry), Nifty traded within a narrow range, largely hovering around the CPR (Central Pivot Range) calculated for the expiry. This week, we saw Nifty open above the Pivot, signaling a bullish reversal. The index then tested the Pivot before surging to R4, forming a strong green expiry candle.
This upward move was anticipated following a week of range-bound activity. Looking ahead to next week, if history is any guide, we might expect a range-bound movement after such a strong surge. However, it's wise to remain on the long side of the market while observing how the market behaves tomorrow. I'll provide updates as the situation evolves.
