Calendar Events:

CPI came in at 6.09% that was higher than estimates of 5.3%. Whole sale price inflation is to be released today and it is expected to be negative 2.40% Vs previous reading of -3.21.

India : -Tired bulls

DIIs booked profits with heavily volumes yesterday while FIIs bot a small quantity. The retail demand seems to be absorbing all the profit booking by DIIs so far. DIIs, FIIs and large proprietary traders are holding short position in index derivatives (Open Interest). Although FIIs have moderated selling in cash market, they seem to be adding protection to their long position by going short in derivative markets.

The implied volatility is skewed. Puts are much costlier than calls. Volatility curve should ideally be like smile where both ends of OTMs have higher volatility while ATM have lower volatility.
