Daily Market Trend Guide -- Friday, July 12, 2013

MARKET REPORT                                                                                        July 12, 2013
The Markets had a robust session yesterday as it opened with a gap up and sustained its gains throughout the session to end the day on a very strong note. It moved past its 50-DMA as well at Close levels. The Markets opened on a gap up note and soon spent the entire session in a 25-odd points intraday band as it spent the session in a sideways trajectory, though gradually adding gains. It went on to give the day’s high of 5948.85 in the mid afternoon session. The Markets hovered around those levels until the end of the session and finally ended the day at 5935.10, posting a strong gain of 118.40 points or 2.04% while forming a sharply higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

Today, technically speaking, since the Markets have ended the day near the high point yesterday, it is likely to open on a modestly positive note and continue with the up move. Expect the Markets to open on a positive note and continue its up move at least in the initial trade. The intraday trajectory would be important as it would be necessary for the Markets to rule above 5916, which is the 50-DMA in order to achieve a possible breakout.

For today, the levels of 5965 and 5990 are immediate resistance on the Charts. The supports come in at 5916 and 5860 levels.

The lead indicators point towards continuing bullish trend. The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 56.7092 and it has reached its highest value in last 14-days which is bullish. It does not show any bearish or bullish divergence. The Daily MACD is bullish as it continues to trade above its signal line. On the Candles, A rising window occurred  (where the top of the previous shadow is below the bottom of the current shadow).  This usually implies a continuation of a bullish trend.  There have been 6 rising windows in the last 50 candles--this makes the current rising window even more bullish.

On the derivative front, NIFTY Futures have went on to add yet another over 13.50 lakh shares or 8.73% in Open Interest. This is greatly positive as it establishes that the yesterday’s up move has been supported by long positions and it is not merely on account of sharp short covering. NIFTY PCR stands at 1.22 as against 1.12.

Overall, the Markets have moved past the levels of 5916, i.e. the 50-DMA which has been the upper band of the broad trading range in which the Markets have been consolidating in last couple of sessions after over 300-odd points pullback. Yesterday, it has attempted a breakout and it would be important to see that the markets rules above the levels of its 50-DMA. If it slips below that, we would be back in the trading zone/ consolidation zone and the consolidation would continue. If the up move continues, then we might achieve a confirmed break out and a trend reversal.

All and all, the day is positive ahead. Expect the Markets to continue it up move while it can remain artificially volatile / dominated due to Infosys numbers. Overall, trading above 50-DMA would be necessary and important. While shorts should be avoided, profits too should be protected at higher levels and selective purchases may be made. Overall, cautiously positive outlook is advised for today.
