Daily Market Trend Guide -- Friday, July 06, 2012

MARKET TREND FOR TODAY                                                                         July 6, 2012
The Markets tried to further its up move towards the end of the session and made an attempt to give a positive break out as it ended the day with modest gains. The Markets opened flat and spent the most part of the session in a extremely narrow range moving in and out of the positive territory and traded for quite a long time around its previous close. However, again, it saw some action coming in as it saw some strength coming in the last hour and half of the trade. It spurt up a bit and gave its intraday high of 5333.65. This was against the resistance levels of 5325 mentioned by us today, as well as in last two of the previous editions. It slightly came off and finally ended the day at 5327.30, posting a modest gain of 24.75 points or 0.47%. The volumes remained around its average and the Markets formed a mildly higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.

Expect the Markets to open flat again and continue with the consolidation on the fifth day also and thus again continue to rely on the intraday trajectory that it shall form. The Markets are expected to open flat and look for directions , but this time, minor correction cannot  be ruled out as indicated by the lead indicators.
The levels 5340 and 5385 are expected to act as resistance and the levels of 5280 and 5215 are expected to act as immediate supports.

The lead indicators and other factors paint a mix picture. The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Charts is 70.5307 and it has reached its highest value in last 14-days, which is bullish. But at the same time, it has entered its “Overbought” range. It does not show any positive or negative divergence. The Daily MACD remains bullish as it continues to trade above its signal line.

Along with the above mix reading of the lead indicators, the NIFTY futures have added over 6 lakh shares and the Stock Futures have added over 2 crores shares in Open Interest which indicates buoyant undercurrent. The NIFTY PCR stands at 1.22 which continues to leave a significant gap on the upside.
Despite the mix reading of the lead indicators which are short term technical indicators, it is important to note that the Markets have taken an overall good fundamental turn for the better. So, the Markets may consolidate a bit, or even if it sees minor correction in coming days, it would be on the contrary healthy for the Markets as it shall prepare itself for further up move.

All and all, consolidation ahead in the day likely. Some occasional bouts may also be seen and any short term downside may be used for making selective purchases, though  keeping the outlook highly stock specific. Existing profits may be protected and shorts should be avoided. Overall, cautious optimism is advised for today.
