MARKET TREND FOR MONDAY, DECEMBER 29, 2014

The Markets are likely to see quiet to mildly positive opening again but overall, it is likely to continue with a sedate performance on lower volumes due to year-end holidays. The levels of 50-DMA would be important and it would be critically important for the Markets to move past the 50-DMA levels in order to continue with its pullback.

The levels of 8264 and 8290 would act as immediate resistance whereas the levels of 8150 and 8100 would act as immediate supports.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 44.6264 and it remains neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or failure swings. The Daily MACD continues to remain bearish while trading below its signal line. On the Weekly Charts, the Weekly RSI is 58.4898 and this too remains neutral without showing any bullish or bearish divergence or any failure swings. The Weekly MACD too remains bearish while it trades above its signal line.

On the derivative front, NIFTY January futures have shed nominal Open Interest of over 1.47 lakh shares or 0.71%. This shows no major offloading was witnessed in the previous session.

Going by pattern analysis, there is no major breach on the Daily as well as Weekly Charts. The Markets have dipped below its 50-DMA and it will have to move past this level again in order to continue with its pullback. During the downside, there has been near-absent volumes. The lack lustre Markets are more due to lack of participation than due to weak technicals.

Overall, one can continue to make very selective purchases. The volumes are likely to continue to remain thin due to year-end holidays. However, given everything, the 50-DMA levels would continue to remain crucial and it would be important for the Markets to move past that level. While overall trend continuing to remain intact and with no major downside seen, positive caution is advised for the day.
