After two consecutive days of losses, the market got a breather as it closed in the green on September 18, with the Nifty50 settling at 10,841 up 0.21 percent.

The broader market indices, BSE Midcap and Smallcap, outperformed the benchmark gaining 0.39 percent and 0.30 percent ,respectively, on September 18.

The market breadth on the NSE was neutral with almost 1:1 ratio. For the last seven weeks, the index has been rangebound between 11,150 and 10,650 levels.

Hence, any breakout from this range needs to be seen for a sustainable move in either direction. On the upside, 11,150-11,200 is the resistance which needs to be taken out.  While the immediate resistance seen at 11,000 levels.

On the downside, the immediate support is placed at 10,746, followed by 10,637. Now, a break below 10,637 levels will indicate a resumption of the downtrend in the market.

In Nifty September monthly expiry options, maximum open interest for Put is seen at strike price 10,800 followed by 10,6000 while for Call maximum open interest is seen at 11,000 followed by 11,200.

The Nifty Put-Call option distribution data is suggesting support at 10,650 levels and resistance at 11,200 levels. India VIX declined by 4.18 percent to close at 15.35 levels for the day.

India VIX needs to stay below 16 levels and move lower for the market to see a bounce back. However, VIX moving back above 16 will be a cause of concern for the market.
