The weekly high on NF recorded today at opening 5168.80 and the weekly low was at 5092.2 giving us the weekly range at 76.60. It is the lowest weekly range for the year. A kind of NR10 on a weekly TF. The open and high were the same yesterday for almost an hour at 5118 levels. When that broke, the mkt went all the way to 5160 the high of the day and closed there.
Today again the open and high were same at 5168.80 and it stayed put. NF unable to go anywhere near it again. The trading range for the day was 42.65 and the 7ATR has shrunk to 47 points. Volatility is down. NSE site says the daily volatility of NF is at .97%.
The last time we did a sub hundred on the weekly range was in the first week of Jan. Subsequent weeks made the downward move. So a big time range expansion on cards. Expansions and contractions is what puts food on the table for traders.
Volatility as they say is more cyclical than the price. How we take advantage of that truth is upto each of us.
