Daily Market Trend Guide -- Monday, May 19, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                                      May 19, 2014
Markets showed a massive upsurge on Friday as the election results started coming out. Markets opened on a positive note and Friday and as the initial trend very nearly clear, it showed a massive uptick as the NIFTY went on to touch a record high of 7563.50. However, post this euphoria the Markets started to witness some profit taking from these highest levels. The Markets, for the rest of the day, remained in falling channel in downward trajectory. It started pared its gains since late morning trade and went on to shed nearly 350+ points NIFTY from its intraday high. It still managed to end the day with decent gains at 7203, posting a net gain of 79.85 points or 1.12% while forming a steeply higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

Today, expect the Markets to open on a positive note but at the same time volatility shall remain and there are fair chances that we continue to see some consolidation or some profit taking at these levels with the levels of 7563 acting as a top. The Markets will continue to see volatile movements at either side and the range of this volatility is expected to be wider with profit taking expected with every higher level.

For today, the levels of 7260 and 7305 are expected to act as immediate resistance levels for the Markets. The supports exist much lower at 7105 and 6920 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 79.6769 and it has reached its highest value in last 14-days which is bullish. However it continues to trade “deeply overbought” and it does not show any bullish or bearish divergences. The Daily MACD remains bullish as it trades above its signal line. On the Candles, a Long Upper Shadow occurred. This is typically bearish and suggest a creation of top for the Markets when it occurs near a high price levels and when the security is “overbought”, which is certainly a case with NIFTY.

On the derivative front, the NIFTY has added   over 36.52 lakh shares or 20.19 in net Open Interest. This has two readings. The one is that there is likelihood of fresh longs in the system. However other major likelihood is that the Markets have seen huge creation of shorts in the Market as bulk of this Open Interest has been created while the Markets came off nearly 350-odd points NIFTY.

Going by the pattern analysis, there has been a massive higher top and higher bottom for the Markets that has been formed in Friday’s session. Such tops, when they occur, generally form a top for the Markets and the Market either corrects from these levels or very severely consolidates in a volatile manner.

All and all, we can still see a positive opening in the Markets but at the same time we can expect volatility to persist. Given the total gains of nearly 600+ points of NIFTY at Close levels some consolidation of profit taking just cannot be ruled out. Every such gain should be utilized to book profits in long positions. Even with some profit taking it would be still be a consolidating market and therefore fresh shorts should be avoided. While continuing to remain moderate on the overall exposure, high degree of caution is continued to be advised for today.
