Daily Market Trend Guide -- Friday, April 15, 2011 (Which our Clients received in the Morning before markets opened)

MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

The Markets saw a huge spate of short covering on Wednesday and as a result, after opening on a lower note, closed near the high point of the day with robust gains and as a result have formed a sharply higher top but lower bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.

Today’s session will be critical session for the Markets. For today, even when the Markets have closed near the high point of the day, expect the Markets again to open on negative note and look for directions.

The levels of 5944 will continue to act as immediate top and resistance and further the Markets may find resistance at 5960. The levels of 5850 and 5800 may act as supports. Even with the Markets ending at high point of the day, there are certain important things that should not be overlooked.

First, the RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 65.5872. It does not show any failure swing but NIFTY has given its 14-day high but RSI has not. This is BEARISH DIVERGANCE. On the Candles, Engulfing Bullish Pattern has occurred. When this occurs during an uptrend, which is the case with NIFTY, it may be the last engulfing top which indicates a potential top. This, however needs confirmation that the potential weakness may creep in.

Further, what signifies the rise as short covering is the fact that NIFTY 5900 Call saw shedding of OI and 5800 Put saw addition of Open Interest.  Further to that, the levels of 5944 continue to act as immediate top. The Markets will see sustainable up move only after bottom of 5944 and any such up move shall make the Markets OVERBOUGHT again.

All and all, there is no need to get carried away with the rise due to the factors explained above. It is advised to continue to maintain very stock specific approach while protecting longs at the higher levels. Cautious outlook is advised for today.
