Summary
Host Tanmay Guri analyzes a volatile pre-market session marked by Nifty's sixth consecutive daily decline and a record-low rupee. He highlights the divergence between retail investors' aggressive naked put selling and proprietary desks' shift to net short calls, signaling emerging bearish sentiment. The episode details key support at 24,000 and resistance at 24,350, while advising traders to monitor Sensex expiry dynamics and oil prices. Guri concludes with a cautious strategy to maintain small positive deltas near 24,300, anticipating a potential bounce despite the prevailing bearish trend.
