Gold Price Today 19 Sept: Buy zone, sell zone, support for yellow metal today
The US Fed is likely to raise the interest rate by 0.75 per cent at the upcoming meeting this week and this seems to be factored in the market sentiments. However, any move apart from the expectation may trigger volatility in the gold prices. The US Fed’s rate hike is supporting the dollar to recover but it is facing some challenges from the monetary tightening stance of other central banks like ECB, Bank of Japan. The sluggish demand in China has also increased the selling pressure in gold.

Near term texture of the market has turned weak
The near term texture of the market has turned weak and the buy on dips strategy is unlikely to work in the present risk-off global environment. FIIs turning sellers is a short-term negative. The market is likely to take a decisive trend only after the Fed policy announcement on 21st September. The market expects the Fed to raise rates by 75bp and reiterate its hawkish stance. But since the market is going into the event with light positions and no positive expectations any positive data or comment may act as a trigger for a relief rally after the Fed announcement. Bank Nifty will continue to be the pillar of support for Nifty and near-term sentiments are negative for IT despite reasonable valuations. The situation is very fluid and therefore it would be better for investors to wait and watch till the Fed meeting is over."

ONGC wants govt to scrap windfall tax, USD 10 gas price
India's top oil and gas producer ONGC wants the government to scrap windfall profit tax levied on domestically produced crude oil and instead use the dividend route to tap into bumper earnings resulting from surge in global energy prices. The firm also favours a floor price for natural gas at USD 10 per million British thermal unit -- the current government-dictated rate -- to help bring deposits in challenging areas to production, two sources aware of the matter said. State-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) management during discussions with government officials stated that levying windfall profit tax on domestic oil producers, while at the same time reaping rich savings from buying discounted oil from Russia was unfair.
Buying discounted Russian crude oil, which was shunned by the West since the Ukraine conflict, has helped save Rs 35,000 crore and this savings should be ploughed back by boosting domestic output, they said. PTIPSU banks clear digital lending worth Rs 83,091 crore in FY 2021-22
As part of EASE 4.0 reforms, state-owned banks were asked to focus on digital lending, co-lending with non-banking firms, agriculture financing, and technological resilience for 24x7 banking. Full Report
Nifty, Bank Nifty support and resistance
Technically, Nifty is facing resistance around 18100 level and forming a kind of double top formation. It has slipped below its 20-DMA which is a sign of caution. On the downside, 17500/17300 are immediate and strong support levels while 17150-17000 is a sacrosanct demand zone at any meaningful correction. 17150 is a previous swing low while 17000 is a 200-DMA for the Nifty.
Banknifty witnessed a profit booking after hitting a fresh all-time high of 41840 but managed to end above 9-DMA of around 40500. If it manages to hold the 40500 level then its outperformance will be continued while if it slips below 40500 then 39700 will be the next important support level.Derivative data
If we look at derivative data then the put-call ratio has slipped to an oversold level of 0.76 therefore there is a probability of a bounceback from the 17500-17300 zone. Short positions of FIIs in the index future are also at the low level of 28% therefore we have a scope of short covering.

Triggers for this week and stock market outlook
Nervous global markets are waiting for the FOMC meeting to provide further direction.
Indian equity markets witnessed profit-taking after the Nifty crossed the 18000 mark and the Banknifty hit a fresh all-time high as global cues were not supportive at all. We were showing resilience despite weak global cues but we can't remain isolated for long. As a result, traders booked out some profit over the weekend. The global markets are looking nervous after US inflation numbers, which have caused the dollar index to hover around 110. US 10-year bond yields are at a multiyear high of 3.5%, and now everyone eyeing the outcome of the upcoming US FOMC meeting, which is scheduled for September 22nd. On the same day, the Bank of England will announce its interest rate decision. Apart from this, the institutional flows will play a critical role because foreign investors have turned sellers after continuous buying for the last month. Domestic institutional investors are also showing some reluctance at higher levels.-
