Currently, it holds above 24,200 zones, momentum could extend towards 24,750 and 25,000 zones, added Chandan.
India VIX was up by 0.25% from 14.11 to 14.22 levels. Volatility slightly inched higher but is hovering at its lower zones which is still comforting for the bulls to add momentum.
Option data suggests a broader trading range in between 24,200 to 25,000 zones while an immediate range between 24,400 to 24,800 levels.“Overall we can ride the positive to range-bound stance and are expecting that any small declines could be bought for an upside move towards 24900-25000 zones,” Chandan said.Given such a scenario, Chandan Taparia believes that one can initiate a Bull Call Spread options strategy to get the benefit of a bullish stance without worrying much about theta decay.Bull Call Spread
