Daily Market Trend Guide -- Friday, November 21, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                             November 20, 2014
The Markets continued to show quite good amount or resilience as it recovered from the lows of the day to once again end the day with minor gains.  The Markets saw a modestly positive opening but soon after a positive start it drifted into the red after a range bound trade in the morning session. By afternoon trade, the Markets slowly drifted to the low point of the day at 8353.15. The Markets once again saw a range bound trade in the second half of the session. However, in the last hour and half of trade the Markets saw itself recovering from lower levels. It slowly recovered all of its gains and traded flat. It further went into positive territory and also went on to form the day’s high of 8410.85. After hovering around those levels, it finally ended the day at 8401.90, posting a minor gain of 19.60 points or 0.23% while forming a lower top and lower bottom on the Daily Bar Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 2014 

Due to the Markets severely consolidating in a sideways trajectory, the analysis continues to remain on the similar lines. The Markets can once again see a quiet opening and we can continue to see the Markets trading in a ranged manner with some amount of volatility ingrained in it. The intraday trajectory continues to remain critical with the levels of 8455 acting as immediate resistance.

The levels of 8420 and 8455 would act as resistance whereas the supports would come in much lower at 8270 and 8215 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 68.6569 and it is neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or any kind of failure swing. The Daily MACD continues to remain bullish while trading above its signal line. On Candles, A hanging man occurred (a hanging man has a very long lower shadow and a small real body).  This pattern can be bullish or bearish, depending on the trend.  If it occurs during an uptrend (which appears to be the case with NIFTY) it is called a hanging man line and signifies a reversal top

On the derivative front, NIFTY November futures  have further shed over 5.73 lakh shares or 2.61% in Open Interest. This signifies short covering from higher levels being observed in the Markets.

Going by the pattern analysis, the Markets have continued to move in sideways trajectory after attempting a breakout. On the Weekly Charts, it has continued to resist to the rising upper trend line of a broadening formation. On the Daily Charts, therefore, the Markets are showing some signs of immediate short term weakness.

Given this reading, the Markets are likely to continue to consolidate sideways trajectory in a ranged manner with a mild downside bias. Under such circumstances, the approach of very vigilantly protecting profits at higher levels should be continued. Fresh purchases in defensives can be made as some sectoral out performance would be seen but this should be done extremely selectively. Overall, continuation of cautious approach is advised for the day.

Daily Market Trend Guide -- Thursday, November 20, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                               November 19, 2014
The Markets failed to confirm its attempted breakout as it ended the day with modest losses after trading in sideways trajectory until the afternoon trade. The Markets saw a positive opening and after opening positive, it soon formed its intraday high of 8455.65 in the early minutes of the trade. The Markets thereafter soon drifted on the downside while paring its morning gains to trade flat. It spent the first half of the session trading near its previous Close until afternoon. The second half of the session saw the Markets witnessing some selling pressure and it drifted further into the red. It went on to form the day’s low of 8360.50 in the last minutes of the session. It saw a very minor recovery and it finally ended the day at 8382.30, posting a modest loss of 43.60 points or 0.52% while forming a similar top and lower bottom on the Daily Bar Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2014

As it was widely expected due to the overbought nature of the Markets, it did not give any runaway rise and instead saw some selling pressure from higher levels. Again, expect the Markets to open on a quiet note and look for directions. Chances of further consolidation still remains significant given the technical structure of the Daily Charts. Volatility too would remain ingrained in coming sessions.

The levels of 8405 and 8450 would act as immediate resistance and the supports would come in much lower at 8270 and 8215 levels.

The Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 67.4358 and it has just crossed below its topping formation which is bearish. It is otherwise neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or any failure swing. The Daily MACD continues to remain bullish as it trades above it signal line.

On the derivative front, the NIFTY November futures have shed over 6.24 lakh shares or 2.76% in Open Interest. This clearly signifies that there has been some unwinding of long positions from higher levels.

Taking a look at pattern analysis, the Markets shows some room for some more consolidation at given levels. The Markets may continue to see selling pressure from higher levels in case of any up move. Though we may not witness any sharp or deep correction, there certainly appears that the Markets may continue to see such ranged session with mild correction.

All and all, looking at the technical charts and also taking a cue from pattern analysis, we may continue to see some selling pressure from higher levels. However, this would be range bound consolidation as the undercurrent continues to remain buoyant as the Markets have been showing good amount of resilience. However, the policy of continuing to protect profits at higher levels and selective buying while maintaining liquidity is advised for the day.
