| Index | Price | Change | % Chg |
| Nifty 50 | 19,384.30 | -55.10 | -0.28% |

At the close, the Nifty 50 was at 19,384.30 down by 0.28%
Today, the NSE Nifty 50 index commenced on a bullish note, reaching a higher level before experiencing a minor decline of 0.28 percent by the end of the trading session, concluding in negative territory. The Nifty index settled below the crucial level of 19400, indicating a bearish trend in the market.
The current market conditions in the Nifty have led to the activation of a bearish signal in the hourly momentum indicator, as it undergoes a negative crossover. This occurrence is primarily a result of the sideways consolidation phase that the Nifty is currently experiencing. As a result, the indicator’s movement appears to be oscillating rapidly, creating a whipsaw effect.
While the recent upswing in the US markets is undoubtedly positive, it is crucial for us to ascertain its sustainability going forward. At present, the Nifty index has been exhibiting a state of consolidation, with its trading range confined within the 19,300-19,550 zone. The key factor to watch for now is a decisive breakout in either direction, as such a move would provide valuable insights regarding the next potential directional shift in the market.
In the financial market on the date of 12/07/2023, the Foreign Institutional Investors (FII)/Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPI) recorded a buy value of 18,217.66 and a sale value of 19,460.10, resulting in a net value of -1,242.44 (in Rs. Cr.). On the same date, the Domestic Institutional Investors (DII) reported a buy value of 15,051.19, a sale value of 14,614.48, and a net value of 436.71 (in Rs. Cr.).
Bank Nifty: Down by 0.24%
In the financial realm, the Bank Nifty commenced the trading session with a positive tone, displaying an upward movement before succumbing to a slight decline of 0.24 percent, ultimately settling in the red zone at a value of 44,639.45. Simultaneously, the BSE Sensex, another prominent index, experienced a comparable downward trend, marking a decrease of 0.34 percent and concluding in the negative territory at a significant low of 65,393.90.
In terms of the Bank Nifty, the index remained in a corrective phase, persistently trading within a downward sloping channel. As the index has recently reached the lower boundary of this channel, it has coincidentally arrived at the significant 50% Fibonacci retracement level of 44,600. This convergence of price and Fibonacci level is expected to generate buying interest among market participants. Consequently, it becomes an important zone to watch for potential reversal or support in the Bank Nifty.
The Indian indices showcased a range-bound movement, which was primarily influenced by the anticipation of underwhelming IT sector earnings. However, the broader market index received support from the optimistic outlook surrounding the moderation of inflation in the United States. This dual influence played a significant role in shaping the market dynamics of the Indian indices during the observed period.

Despite the global trend of decreasing currency volatility this year, the Indian rupee has experienced a significant decline in its trading fluctuations, leading traders from various financial hubs such as London and Singapore to question when the country’s central bank will ease its stringent control over the currency. In June, the one-month implied volatility of the rupee against the dollar plummeted to its lowest level since 2005, prompting inquiries from investors during Citigroup Inc.’s roadshows.
In the efforts to maintain stability in the currency, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has successfully replenished its reserves by approximately $32 billion in the current year. This substantial accumulation of reserves by the RBI involved absorbing foreign inflows, thereby ensuring the Indian currency remains steady. Additionally, during the initial four months of the year, the RBI’s dollar forward book experienced an increase of about $10 billion, further highlighting the central bank’s proactive approach to managing currency dynamics.
