Daily Market Trend Guide -- Wednesday, August 08, 2012

MARKET TREND FOR TODAY                                                            August 8, 2012
The Markets had yet another decent session wherein it continued with its up move and ended the day with decent gains after a flat opening. The Markets opened on a quietly positive note and for the entire session, remained in positive rising trajectory as it kept gradually making new highs. The Markets went on to give its intraday high of 5350.10 towards the end of the session and ended the day at 5336.70, slightly off its highs but still posting decent gain of 54.15 points or 1.03%. The volumes continued to improve. It has made a sharply higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.

The Markets today, again are expected to open on a moderately positive note and look for directions but this time, it has closed near one of the  Double Top resistance and has a near term resistance further ahead. So, key would be to see the intraday trajectory the Markets form and the behavior of the Markets vis-à-vis these two resistance levels.

Today, the levels of 5360 and 5398 would be the two pattern resistance levels that the Markets face and the behavior of the Markets vis-à-vis these two levels would be critical to see.

The lead indicators continue to remain in place. The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 63.3721 and it has reached its highest value in last 14-days which is bullish. It does not show any negative divergence. The Daily MACD continues to trade above its signal line.

The volumes have moderated in yesterday’s rise, with most of the Index and Sectoral Index components have traded either around the average volume or below it. Though NIFTY and Stocks have both continued to add in total open interest.

Going by this, it is likely that the Markets continues with its up move in the opening session. However, going by pattern analysis, it is important to note that at the same time, Markets would be near their pattern resistance shown in the Charts. There are chances that we see intermittent profit booking at higher levels and a mild correction is seen. It is thus advised to keep protecting profits at higher levels and remain ultra selective in taking fresh positions. Overall, positive caution is advised for today.

Overall, continuation of up move is expected but at the same time, some consolidation and minor profit taking too cannot be ruled out.

Balanced approach with caution and positive outlook is advised for today.
