"In Nifty options, maximum open interest for puts is seen at 10,700 followed by 10,600 which is likely to act as crucial support for the market. In calls, 11,000 strike has seen maximum OI," says Ashish Chaturmohta of Sanctum Wealth Management

The Nifty traded in a narrow range on Monday with a negative bias, following weak global cues, due to trade wars concerns between the US and China. The Nifty finally settled at 10,800, down 0.17 percent for the day.

Though the benchmark indices were flat to negative, broader markets were under pressure, as market breadth on the NSE was 2:1 in favour of declines.

The index has been facing resistance at the falling resistance trend line, connecting highs of 11,172-10,929 and trading below it. On the downside, it is seeing buying coming around 10,760 and holding above it.

For the last few sessions, it has been trading in a 10,760-10,835 range. For the uptrend to continue, the index needs to hold above 10,860 on a tradable basis, only then it can rally towards 10,929 levels and possibly higher to 11,000 levels.

On the downside, a break below 10,760 levels could see the index test 10,700 which is an important support. A break below 10,700 could see it decline towards 10,550 and resume the downtrend.

In Nifty options, maximum open interest for puts is seen at 10,700 followed by 10,600 which is likely to act as crucial support for the market. In calls, 11,000 strike has seen maximum OI.
