Daily Market Trend Guide -- Tuesday, May 13, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                                May 13, 2014
The markets continued with its upsurge in yesterday’s session as well as it opened positive and remained strong throughout the session to end the day with yet another robust gains. The Markets opened on a positive note and remained in upward rising trajectory throughout the session while it continued to report new intraday highs. It went on to cross the 7000-mark as it formed its intraday high of 7020.05 towards the end of the session. The Markets successfully maintained its gains until the end and finally ended the day at 7014.25, a fresh lifetime high, posting a robust gain of 155.45 points or 2.27% while forming a higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

Even though the markets have again become overbought, it will continue to witness the volatile upsurge, though now on little dangerous and unhealthy manner. The reason for this is the expected NDA victory from all the exit polls (though exit polls have been miserably wrong in 2004 and 2009). The Markets are likely to react to this and on the other hand it would also react to the IIP and CPI numbers which are not at all encouraging.

For today, the Markets would continue to trade in uncharted territory and therefore the possible resistance levels can be 7050 and 7065 and the supports would exist very low at 6905 and 6850 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 72.7310 and it has reached its highest value in last 14-days which is Bullish. On the other hand, it has also entered the “overbought” territory. It does not show any bullish or bearish divergence. The Daily MACD has now reported a positive crossover and it trades above its signal line. 

On the derivative front, the NIFTY May futures have added over 4.32 lakh shares or 2.98% in Open Interest. This shows that fresh buying continued. The Market breadth however remained negative slightly favoring the declines. 

Going only by the pattern analysis, if the Markets continue to surge upwards, it would not get unhealthy and dangerous by all means. Agreed that the Markets reacting to the positive electoral sentiments and this is backed by massive cash inflows but the Markets need to consolidate a bit before resuming its up move. ALSO, the markets should and will take into consideration the IIP and CPI data, which is not encouraging at all, if not today than incoming sessions. This greatly reduces any immediate rate cut by RBI as inflation has continued to remain high.

All and all, going by this, even if the Markets now continue with their up moves, we strongly recommend that exposures should be curtailed to very moderate levels. Any fresh purchases, if any should be curtailed to defensives as some volatile and intermittent corrections just cannot be ruled out. Overall, while remaining very moderate on exposures, very high degree of caution is advised for today.

Daily Market Trend Guide -- Monday, May 12, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                                         May 12, 2014
Markets on Friday showed an massive up move fuelled by equally massive short covering ahead of major exit poll today in the evening as it surged with unexpected magnitude to end the day with robust gains on fresh lifetime highs. The Markets opened subdued and remained in the capped range in the first hour of the trade but soon it formed a rising trajectory and strengthened itself. There was no looking back for the Markets since then and the Markets kept making new intraday highs. It went on to touch the levels of 6871.35 towards the end of the session. It finally ended the day at 6858.80, posting a robust gain of 198.95 points or 2.99% while forming a sharply higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

This week shall remain immensely important for the Markets today as the Markets will see results for General Elections coming out on 16th. But before that, today’s day would remaining equally important as one of the biggest exit poll in the Indian history will make its way out today. Further there are IIP and March CPI numbers coming in today. However, all of these events would come out after the Market hours and this promises to keep the today’s session bit volatile.

For today, if the Markets open positive, it would again trade in the uncharted territory with the levels of 6895 and 6920 expected to act as immediate resistance. The supports come much lower at 6650 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 65.0161 and it does not show any kind of failure swings. However, the NIFTY has set a new 14-period high but the RSI has not yet and it shows Bearish Divergence. The Daily MACD still continues to remain bearish as it trades below its signal line. On the Candles,  an engulfing bullish line has occurred. If the engulfing bullish  pattern  occurs during an uptrend (which appears to be the case with NIFTY), it may be a last engulfing top which indicates a top.  The test to see if this is the case is if the next candle closes below the top of the current (white) candle's real body.

All the above reading is purely technical based and going as per the pattern analysis, the previous top of 6869 has also not bee taken out. Further even in case of higher opening the sustaining of markets at higher levels would be important for the Markets to achieve a clear-cut breakout on the Daily Charts.

However, all of the above technical reading may take a back seat due to one of the most major external events. So, even if the plain reading of the technical chart poses doubts over sustainability of up move, such up moves can occur due to actions arising out of such external events and therefore short should be avoided. On the other hand, blind buying too should be avoided as great amount of volatility is also expected in today’s as well as immediate few sessions. Remaining very moderate on exposures, high degree of caution is advised for today.
