I know this looks like quite a mad decision but I have gone long on ICICI Bank since yesterday @ 272 (futures price).
- It has retraced to almost 78.6% of the rise from 3rd April to 15th May A very deep retracement
- Immediate target = 288 (futures price July Contract)
- SL = below 268 (futures price July Contract)

Daily chart seems to forming a Hammer candle after what is more or less a series of 3 Falling Crows (with a tiny Doji in between). Theoretically that is bullish.
Comment:
Highest Open Interest addition is at 260/270 & 290/300/310/320 (spot prices). These could be SL & Target levels. I have written puts at 270 in addition to being long @ 272 in futures.

On Monday I will set 290 (futures) as immediate target and reduce some of my bullish positions.

Closed for a modest profit of 8k per lot. Moving too slow for too long. Released margin for new trades.

It was a good idea to exit ICICI Bank when I did.

The Daily candles today and yesterday seem to be forming a bullish Harami pattern

Long position because:
- Very low stochastics on the daily chart since about 5th July
- Price action has been finding support at 127.2% extension of the drop from 15th May to 31st May. Often this is a point of reversal and it has been consolidating at this level since 28th June.
- And finally as I mentioned earlier there seems to be a bullish Harami candle pattern forming in the daily charts

Trade closed: stop reached:
260 SL hit. I expect a support levela t 257/252. ICICI Bank is severely oversold so there may a good opportunity at this price level. However, in futures the lot size is 2750 so Mark To Market margin requirements could be quite high. Shall watch the situation tomorrow and then decide on a trade. Or may enter long in the spot market for long term holding.
