Daily Market Trend Guide -- Monday, May 14, 2012

MARKET TREND FOR TODAY                                                     May 14, 2012
The Markets continued to remain terribly volatile and got finally OVERSOLD on Friday as it moved all over the places before ending the day with losses. The Markets opened negative and after remaining in a capped range on the negative side, it saw sudden deepening of the cut as it reacted to IIP Numbers and went on to give the day’s low of 4906.15. However, after remained in a capped range again, the Markets saw a massive short covering from those levels. It not only recovered all of its losses, but also went into the green and gave its intraday high of 4976.25. It however came off again and finally ended the day at 4928.90, posting a loss of 36.80 points or 0.74%. It has continued to form lower top and lower bottom on the Daily High Low Charts and have ended the week with net loss of 157.95 points or 3.12%.

The Markets are finally OVERSOLD. Today, expect the Markets to open flat and are expected to remain directionless in the initial session and have all technical chances to improve as the session goes ahead. The intraday trajectory would continue to remain important.

For today, the levels of 5010 and 5045 are immediate resistance levels and the levels of 4905 and 4860 are immediate supports.

The lead indicators are OVERSOLD. The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 28.8923 and it now trades in OVERSOLD territory. Though it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days, it does not show any negative divergence. The Daily MACD  continues to trade below its signal line. On the Weekly Charts, the RSI is 41.2005 and it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days. The 200-Week Moving Average stands at 4810.

NIFTY and Stock Futures both have gone ahead in adding Open Interest and the NIFTY PCR stands at 0.81, which too is nearing Oversold levels.

Having said this, from the above reading, we can fairly conclude that the Markets on Daily Charts are absolutely OVERSOLD and some respite from the current weakness can be seen, at least in the initial week. Even if we presume that the Markets may touch the levels of 4810 mentioned above, it should not happen before a pullback is seen on the Daily Charts in the initial week.

All and all, the Markets are loaded with shorts positions, are Oversold and thus, there are fair chances set for a short  covering and bias towards up move. There are chances that we open flat and improve as the session goes ahead. However, volatility is definitely to remain. Any sharp up move should be used in protecting profits on existing positions and the retail investors are  continued to be advised to remain light on the positions and refrain from shorts by any means. Overall, a cautiously positive outlook is advised for today.
