It was a volatile day as but bulls, as well as bears, tried to take control of D-Street on the July expiry day. The last one selling pressure dragged the Nifty50 in red for the sixth consecutive day in a row on Thursday.

Nifty fell about 5 percent in July series, its worst since October 2018. Nifty Midcap and Nifty Bank's fall in July series was also the biggest in 10 months.

The Nifty failed to hold on to 11,300 which it reclaimed in intraday trade while the S&P BSE Sensex took a U-turn after surpassing 38,000 in trade.

Markets remain volatile as traders rolled over bets from July series to August series while muted results from top Nifty names weighed on sentiment.

The rupee depreciated by 6 paise to close at 69.04 against the US dollar on Thursday amid sustained foreign fund outflows and firm crude oil prices.

As many as 55 companies will declare their results for the quarter ended June which include names like ABB India, Bajaj Auto, Force Motors, Vodafone Idea, JSW Steel, KPIT Tech, Maruti Suzuki India, Punjab National Bank, Usha Martin, Vedanta, and VST Industries etc. among others.

Technical View: 

Nifty50 formed a Hammer like pattern on daily charts

Experts feel 11,229 could be crucial level for Nifty, if that breaks then there could be selling pressure but as index looks oversold, the bounce back can't be ruled out which can sustain if it holds 11,361 level.

If the index slips below 11,229, then it can come under renewed selling pressure with targets placed around 11,100

Three levels: 11,130, 11239, 11361-11400
