Daily Market Trend Guide -- Thursday, July 14, 2016

MARKET TREND FOR THURSDAY, JULY 14, 2016
The Markets continued to consolidate in yesterday’s session and traded much on analyzed lines as it ended flat with nominal losses after remaining in tight range. Today, we continue to put our analysis on similar lines. The Markets are likely to see a quiet and flat opening and it has shown increased signs of fatigue at higher levels. It is very much likely that it continues to remain with a capped upside with vulnerability of selling bouts at higher levels.

For today, the levels of 8550 and 8575 will act as immediate resistance levels for the Markets. The supports come in at 8480 and 8415 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 7051.93 and it remain in “overbought” territory. It does not show any failure swing. It also does not show any bullish or bearish divergence. The Daily MACD remains bullish as it trades above its signal line. On the Candles, a black candle very near to a hanging man has appeared. Though this is not a classic hanging man formation, it does show a potential halt in the uptrend in the Markets.

On the derivative front, the NIFTY July futures have added yet another over 1.79 lakh shares in Open Interest. The NIFTY PCR stands at 1.04 as against 1.24.

If we look at pattern analysis, the Markets gave a break out on the upside while moving past its previous intermediate top of 8295-8298 levels. It broke out on the upside, consolidated again for a couple of days and went on to put on further gains. The Markets have risen nearly 225-odd points since its last previous top and nearly 575-odd points from the June 24th lows. Though it has fortified its up moves by intermittent consolidation, the Markets are now showing some signs of weariness as well. It did tested its logical targets of 8550 but it now trades in “overbought” territory and the breadth is getting little weaker.

Overall, keeping into account that the lead indicators trade overbought and the breadth has grown weaker over previous couple of sessions, we cannot rule out the possibility of the Markets consolidating or showing corrective profit taking bouts at higher levels. It is reiterated to keep purchases limited to sectors that are witnessing rotational preference and use all up moves in protecting existing positions in the Markets. However, corrections, if any, will be healthy for the Markets as the inherent trend remains buoyant.

Daily Market Trend Guide -- Wednesday, July 13, 2016

MARKET TREND FOR WEDNESDAY, JULY 13, 2016
The Markets traded pretty much on analyzed lines yesterday, did show some intraday corrective bout but finally ended the day with gains after pulling back in the second half. Today as well, we continue to set our analysis on similar lines. We can fairly expect the Markets to open on a flat to mildly positive note and look for directions. However, Markets has been showing some signs of weariness and it vulnerability to selling bouts from higher levels cannot be ruled out.

For today, the levels of 8530 and 8575 will act as immediate resistance levels for the Markets. The supports come in at 8480 and 8415 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 70.6776 and it now trades in overbought territory. However, it has reached its highest value in last 14-days which is bullish. It does not show any bullish or bearish divergence. The Daily MACD is bullish as it trades above its signal line. On Candles a rising window occurred again. This usually implies continuation of bullish trend. There have been 10 rising windows in the last 50 Candles which portrays overall strong picture.

On the derivative front, the NIFTY July futures have added yet another over 13.13 lakh shares or 6.58% in Open Interest. This continues to display inherently bullish picture of the Markets.

Coming to pattern analysis front, as repeated often in our previous editions, the Markets have not only recovered all of its losses from the lows it made on June 24th but have went on to post a breakout while moving past its previous top. It has attempted a further breakout as a continuation of its uptrend after it consolidated for a couple of days. The uptrend is likely to continue today as well however the Markets have been showing some signs of weariness at higher levels.

Overall, it is important to note that the Markets are now overbought and the breadth has been little negative showing some signs of weariness. Also, it has reason over 250-odd points after breaking out from its previous top. All this point towards  some vulnerability of the Markets towards witnessing some profit taking bouts from higher levels. Since the undercurrent remains adamantly buoyant, such corrections / consolidation may remain very range bound we may not witness any significant damage. However, no every rise should be utilized more on protecting profits at higher levels. The defensives sectors and the laggards over previous week will continue to outperform.
