Daily Market Trend Guide -- Tuesday, December 09, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                               December 09, 2014
Markets clearly saw some correction from higher levels today much on expected lines and ended the day with losses. Taking a cue from weak technical indicators, the Markets opened on a mildly negative note. After such opening, it went briefly in the green while it formed the day’s high of 8546.35. The Markets traded in green for a very brief period in the morning trade and then immediately returned back to the negative territory. It continued trade with modest losses until afternoon trade wherein the trajectory remained more or less sideways. It was in the second half of the session when the Markets saw some more pressure as it made its way lower. It went on to form its day’s low of 8432.25 towards the end of the session. No much recovery was seen and the Markets finally ended the day at 8438.25, posting a net loss of 100.05 points or 1.17% while forming a lower top and lower bottom on the Daily Bar Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TUESDAY, DECEMBER 09, 2014

Speaking purely on technical grounds, the Markets still has room to continue its drift on the downside. We can fairly expect the Markets to open on a quiet note and trade with downward bias. While continuing to trade below its upper rising trend line, the Markets had been trading sideways and this downside is all likely to infuse short term weakness in the Markets.

On the upside, the levels of 8540 and 8595 would act as immediate resistance for the Markets. The immediate supports would exist at 8350 and 8310 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 53.9182 and it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days which is bearish. Further, the RSI has set a fresh 14-day low whereas the NIFTY has not yet and this is Bearish Divergence. The Daily MACD continues to trade below its signal line and is therefore bearish.

On the derivative front, the NIFTY December futures have added over 11.66 lakh shares or 5.79% in Open Interest. NIFTY had added OI in the previous session as well. This very clearly suggests addition of good amount of short positions in the Markets. These shorts are also likely to prevent any serious downside as they themselves tend to lend support going ahead.

Looking at the pattern analysis, the Markets failed to clear the upward rising trend line to give a clear breakout on the upside. It moved sideways and then formed a distinct lower top and lower bottom. Usually speaking on technical grounds, this can induce further short term weakness but at the same time, looking at the shorts that are observed in the system, more of range bound consolidation rather than sharp correction can be expected.

Overall, the Markets are likely to remain in corrective mode but during this phase, more amount of range bound consolidation is likely to be seen rather than straight downside. Given the shorts in the system that are seen being created during previous couple of sessions, they are likely to lend support at lower levels and might prevent deeper downside. However, it is advised to stick to defensives and non-index components while making fresh purchases. Continuance of caution in the Markets is advised.
