Daily Market Trend Guide -- Friday, June 17, 2016

MARKET TREND FOR FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 2016
Markets recovered over 50-odd points yesterday from the low point of the from a minor support pattern created over past few days. Today, aided by a positive surprise on the CAD figures and equally aided by favorable technical factors, the Markets are likely to see a decently positive opening today. Today’s likely positive opening will see the Markets opening  towards the higher end of the trading range formed over previous sessions and it would be important to see if the Markets sustain expected opening gains and if they capitalise on it.

For today, the levels of 8180 and 8225 will act as immediate resistance for the Markets. The supports come in at 8070 and 8020 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 56.1196 and it remains neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or any failure swings. The Daily MACD stays bearish as it continues to trade above its signal line. On Candles, a hammer-like candle has occurred. Though it does not constitute a exact hammer (going by measurements, strictly), it does potentially suggest that the temporary downsides may be over.

On the derivative front, NIFTY June futures have shed over over 15.12 lakh shares or 8.15% in Open Interest. This very clearly signifies sharp short covering from lower levels and de-risking of positions. The NIFTY PCR stands once again at 1.09 as against 1.14.

If we have a look at pattern analysis, the Markets currently remain intact in a primary up trend as it trades above all of its moving averages. Having said this, after breaking out on the upside from a triangle formation, the formed a immediate top at 8290-8300 levels. After this, as evident from the Charts, it has been consolidating. Even if we see some downsides, but trade above 50-DMA, it would be perfectly healthy for the Markets. However, short term pattern supports in between this exists at 8050-8070 levels. It would be important to see the Markets trading above these levels to avoid even short term weakness.

All and all, as mentioned, the overall structures of the Markets remain intact. It is, therefore, advice to refrain from creating any short positions and short squeeze might keep occurring at lower levels.  On the contrary, any short term weakness should be continued to be utilized to make very selective purchases. Until the Markets move past 8300 levels, profits should be vigilantly protected at higher levels. The Markets are expected to remain in a broad range with volatility remaining ingrained in it.

Daily Market Trend Guide -- Thursday, June 16, 2016

MARKET TREND FOR THURSDAY, JUNE 16, 2016
The Markets saw a massive bout of short covering from lower levels yesterday and filled up the gap it had created three days back. Speaking purely on technical terms, the Markets should open on a flat note and possibly continue with its up move. However, given the Global Markets, there are chances that the Indian Markets may open slightly on a lower note and remain once again under some range bound consolidation. The levels of 8060 will continue to act as support in the immediate short term.

For today, the levels of 8245 and 8295 will act as immediate resistance levels for the Markets. The supports come in much lower at 8120 and 8080 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 62.0187 and it remains neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or any failure swing. The Daily MACD still continues to remain bearish as it trades below its signal line.

On the derivative front, the NIFTY June futures have shed yet another over 5.39 lakh shares or 2.82% in Open Interest. This very clearly signifies short covering from lower levels. The NIFTY PCR stands now at 1.14 as against 1.09.

While having a look at pattern analysis, it becomes evident that the Markets have seen 8050-8060 zone as its immediate support. On the same lines, the level of 8295-8300 has now become an immediate top as well. We will not see any sustainable rise until the Markets move past the 8300-mark. In coming days, the Brexit will continue to cast its shadow over possibility of any such up move. Also, in the same breath, any move below 8050-8060 will trigger some more short term weakness. Until the Markets take a directional view, we will continue to see the Markets remain range bound and in the consolidation mode.

Overall, today as well, we will once again see the Markets opening modestly on a lower note but may remain in consolidation mode and up moves from lower levels cannot be ruled out. With no structural breach on the Charts, shorts should be strictly avoided all dips should be utilized to make fresh selective purchases. Profits too should be protected at higher levels as good amount of volatility too would remain ingrained in the Markets.
