Daily Market Trend Guide -- Wednesday, June 05, 2013

MARKET TREND FOR TODAY                                                              June 05, 2013
What seem like a stable session for the Markets with a mild hope of some recovery fizzled out in the second half as the Markets continued to correct and ended the day with modest losses. The Markets opened on a flat note and soon traded with modest gains as it gave its day’s high of 5981.60 in the morning trade. The Markets continued to trade sidewards but also maintained its morning gains even while trading in a capped range. However the first half saw very mild but consistent drifting of the Markets from its day’s high. In the last hour and half of the trade the Markets pared all of its gains to trade flat and after some time also dipped into the red. It not only traded in the negative territory but also went on to give the day’ low of 5910.25. It did not see any significant recovery in the end and finally ended the day at 5919.45, posting a modest loss of 19.85 points or 0.33% while forming a lower top and mildly lower bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.


The Markets are expected to open on a moderately negative note following weak technicals and weak global cues as well. The Markets have attempted to hold on to their pattern support but have closed a notch below that. With moderately negative opening expected today, the Markets are all likely to open near their 100-DMA levels. It would be very crucially important to see the behaviour of the Markets vis-à-vis the 100-DMA, particularly at Close. Intraday trajectory would continue to remain very important.

For today, the levels of 5945 and 5970 are immediate resistance levels on the Charts. The supports come in at 5896, which is the 100-DMA of the Markets and further at 5872 which is the 50-DMA of the Markets. Any breach below this will induce further weakness in the Markets.

The lead indicators continue to point towards mildly bearish bias. The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 43.5501 and it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days which is bearish. However, it does not show any bullish or bearish divergence. The Daily MACD continues to remain bearish as it trades below its signal line.

On the derivative front, NIFTY June futures have shed over 3.91 lakh shares or 2.84% in Open Interest. This signifies that offloading continued yesterday, particularly in the second half of the session. No shorts have been created significantly.

Having said this, it is important to note that neither the technical indicators nor the F&O data suggests any supports coming in at current levels. Today expected negative opening is likely to cause the Markets open near its 100-DMA and any breach below this will take it near to 50-DMA which is very near again. These are the important supports that the Markets are expected to take momentarily, even if it has any negative bias and some technical pullback can be expected, even if it is for a short term.

Given the above reading, even with the modestly negative opening expected today, the Markets are likely to see some support coming in at lower levels near its DMAs as mentioned. In such case, even if the downtrend is to persist, it may see some support coming in at these levels. Under such circumstances, we can see some selective out performance in some stocks which are trading nearly oversold. However, profits should stand protected at higher levels and such purchases should be made on very selective basis. Overall, cautious optimism is advised for today.
