Daily Market Trend Guide -- Thursday, December 18, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                          December 18, 2014
Markets ended the day in the red for the fifth session in a row but also survived a scare in the early morning trade is come off quite a bit from its lows before ending with modest losses. The Markets saw a flat and quite opening and after opening saw a sharp selling pressure in the morning trade. The Markets went down to make the day’s low of 7961.35 in the late morning trade. However, the rest of the session saw a technical rebound as the Markets gradually recovered all of its gains. It recovered over 110-odd points from the lows of the day and also went to trade into the green for a brief time while it formed the intraday high of 8082. It came off a bit again but this time traded in a capped range without posting much losses and finally settled the day at 8029.80, posting a net loss of 37.80 points or 0.47% while continuing to form a lower top and lower bottom on the Daily Bar Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2014

The session remains a very crucial one as the Markets have closed a notch below its 100-DMA. However, we can expect a modestly positive opening in the Markets as they remain oversold and a technical rebound remains imminent. The levels of 8059 remains crucial and it would be important for the Markets to move past and sustain above 8060 levels in order to avoid any further weakness.

The levels of 8060 and 8130 would act as immediate resistance for the Markets. The supports would come in at 7960 and 7910 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 28.1640 and it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days which is bearish. However, it does not show any bullish or bearish divergence and it now trades in “oversold” area. The Daily MACD remains bearish as it continues to trade above its signal line.

On the derivative front, NIFTY December futures have added modest 12,400 shares or nominal 0.05% in Open Interest. There have been no major unwinding or shorts were seen in the system.

Taking a look at pattern analysis, the Markets have lost nearly 650-odd points of NIFTY in last couple of sessions while resisting to a upper rising trend line of a broadening formation. During this phase, the Markets have now formed a intermediate top at 8623 levels. However, it has seen over 66% retracement and forms a good case for a technical rebound. The constant addition of short positions and the “overbought” nature of the Markets will aid to this.

Overall, the Markets are due for a technical rebound at any time. It has attempted one while recovering from the lows and is likely to continue its effort as well. It can mildly resist to the 100-DMA levels of 8059-60 but it is likely that it would move past this level. It is critically important for the Markets to move past this level in order to successfully attempt an up move. While very small amounts of selective purchases may be made, overall, positive caution is advised while maintaining liquidity for the day.
