Trade the Strangle in the Bank Nifty

Apr 22, 2022

The Bank Nifty index is one of the big underperforming indices against the NSE Nifty since February 2021.

The recent momentum in the Nifty is led by Reliance Industries. The correction in HDFC Bank, with a weightage of about 28%, has kept the Bank Nifty under pressure.

Technically, the Bank Nifty index is trending between the canals of gaps. The resistance is placed at 37,400 and the support at 35,800.

Bank Nifty Index Support at 36,200

 

The rise yesterday resisted at the key psychological of 37,000 and 100 HEMA (Hourly Exponential Moving Average) which was placed at 36,914.

Additionally, the less tracked 22 degrees rising trendline has a support at 36,200 around the gap area.

As an options trader, the best strategy to play the setup is the short strangle till the index continues to trade in the mentioned range.

Traders must understand the risk involved in shorting options is unlimited. Trade with a strict stoploss.

At present, the Bank Nifty index is trading down 1.5% at 36,270 while the Nifty is down 1% at 17,200.

In the Bank Nifty index, SBI, Kotak Bank, and Axis Bank are the top losers.
