Daily Market Trend Guide -- Wednesday, June 12, 2013

MARKET REPORT                                                                                          June 12, 2013
The Markets saw sharp weakness coming in the moment it breached its 100 and 50 DMA as it opened lower on back of global weakness and ended the day with a sharp cut, testing its 200-DMA. The Markets opened on a negative note following global and technical weakness and in the morning trade itself saw one way drifting as it went on test its 200-DMA while it gave its day’s low of 5780.35. However, the second half of the session saw feeble attempt of the Markets to recover from its day’s lows as it slowly attempted to inch upwards partially recovering some of its losses. However, this did not sustain as the last half hour of the trade saw weakness returning and sent the Markets trading near its lows again. No recovery was seen towards the end and the Markets finally ended the day at 5788.80, posting a sharp cut of 89.20 points or 1.52% while it formed a sharply lower top and lower bottom on the Daily High Low charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

Technically speaking, since the Markets have ended near the low point of the day, they are expected to open on a modestly negative note at least in the initial trade and look for directions. Today, the Markets are expected to open on a modestly negative note and intraday trajectory would be critically important today. The Markets have closed marginally below its 200-DMA and it would be critically important for the Markets to recover and trade above its 200-DMA in order to avoid further weakness.

The levels of 5794, which is the 200DMA and the levels of 5865 shall act as immediate resistance. Supports come in at 5765 and 5740 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 34.6470 and it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days which is bearish. It does not show any bearish or bullish divergence. The Daily MACD is bearish as it trades below its signal line. 

On the derivative front, the NIFTY June Futures have added over 13.98 lakh shares  or over 11.49% in Open Interest. The same has been the case with BANKNIFTY futures as well. This has been for the first time since last so many sessions that addition in open interest is reported. This signifies that huge amount of shorts have been created and this can lend support at lower levels preventing the Markets from breaking down much.

Overall, the Markets have closed marginally below its 200-DMA. Given this, it would be very necessary and critically important for the Markets to recover and trade above 5794 which is the 200-DMA in case of any weak opening. The positive factor is the very high amount of Open Interest that NIFTY has reported to have been added. This can lend support at lower levels. 

All and all, given the reading that very high amount of open interest has been added in NIFTY as well as major stocks, it is advised to strictly refrain from taking any short positions even if the Markets have closed marginally lower than its 200-DMA and even if it opens modestly lower and drifts in the initial trade. There are significant amount of chances that the Markets limits its losses and find supports. Any downside should be utilized to make selective purchases. Overall mildly optimistic outlook is advised for today.
