MARKET TREND FOR MONDAY, MARCH 14, 2016
The Markets are likely to attempt a breakout on the upside after nearly 6-odd days of consolidation and resistance to the 7550-levels. However, at the same time, the Markets face a critical opening as well. Today, the Markets are likely to see a decently positive opening and the opening is likely around the 7550-levels or slightly above that. If this possible opening levels are achieved, it would be critically important for the Markets to sustain those levels and build up on that. If not, then the Markets will continue to consolidate as it has been doing over previous day.

For today, the levels of 7550 and 77615 are likely to act as immediate resistance levels. The supports come in at 7460 and 7385 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 59.6260 and it is neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence. The Daily MACD remains bullish as it continues to trade above its signal line. On the Weekly Charts, the Weekly RSI is 46.4168 and this too remains neutral without showing any bullish or bearish divergence. The Weekly MACD, however, is still bearish as it trades below its signal line but it is moving towards a positive crossover.

On the derivative front, the NIFTY March futures have added over 2.21 lakh shares or 1.02% in Open Interest. The NIFTY PCR stands above 1. With the addition in OI, some amount of fresh are seen being added once again.

Coming to pattern analysis, the Markets have been resisting to the 7530-7550 resistance zone towards last six trading session. As mentioned often in our previous editions, this is the major support levels that the Markets breached on the downside. Now, on its way up, these levels have been acting as resistance. However, we have also mentioned often in our previous editions that the Markets are displaying great amount of strength as even after a pullback of over 10% post lows posted on Union Budget day, the Markets are just consolidating and showing no signs of any weakness. Having said this, today, it is likely to see opening levels on or above 7550 levels and it would be critically important to see if the Markets are able to build and capitalize on this expected positive opening. If the Markets are able to move past the 7550 levels, its logical advance can test the 100-DMA levels which are 7650 in coming days.

Overall, a decently positive opening is expected and it would be critically important to see if the Markets moves past the 7550 resistance zone or continues to consolidate. In any case, the undercurrent continues to remain buoyant. Shorts should be avoided and selective purchases should be continued to be made. Overall, positive outlook is advised for today.
