Daily Market Trend Guide -- Thursday, October 25, 2013

MARKET REPORT                                                                                              October 25, 2013
The session had a buoyant start yesterday and it made a strong attempt to clear the key resistance levels of 6250 but the Markets saw these levels continue to act as resistance as the Markets came off from those levels and ended the day with losses. The Markets opened on a positive note and soon went on to give the day’s high of 6252.45 in the morning trade. However, for the fourth time, the key resistance zone of 6230-6250 stood fiercely as resistance. The Markets took a negative turn and kept paring gains to the extent of turning negative. It came off nearly 90-odd points to give day’s low of 6142.95. It saw some minor recovery in the end but still ended the day in negative as it closed at 6164.35, posting a net loss of 14 points or 0.23% while forming a higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.

MARKET TREND FOR TODAY
The Markets came off nearly 90-odd points from day’s high yesterday as the zone of 6230-6250 held out fiercely as resistance.  Today as well, expect the Markets to open on a negative note and continue with correction, at least in the initial session. The intraday trajectory would be important to determine the trend for today but overall, the Markets are expected to trade with corrective bias.
The levels of 6230 and 6250 would continue to act as immediate and important resistance for the Markets. The supports come in lower at 6110 and 6075 levels.
The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 63.9296 and it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days which is bearish. The Daily MACD continue to trade bullish, above its signal line. On the Candles, the Chart shows possibility of a formation of a top which might indicate a reversal. A doji star occurred (where a doji gaps above or below the previous candle).  This often signals a reversal with confirmation occurring on the next bar. Also, A long upper shadow occurred.  This is typically a bearish signal (particularly when it occurs near a high price level, at resistance level, or when the security is overbought).
On the derivative front, NIFTY October futures have further shed over 3.47 lakh shares or 1.98%  in Open Interest. This showed that unwinding of long positions continued and some reduction in longs is seen.
Given the above reading, going by both pattern analysis and the F&O data, it is absolutely evident that the resistance zone of 6230-6250 has held out very strongly to the extent that it has become a immediate top for the Markets. No up move shall occur until the markets move past these levels and until this happens, as mentioned in our yesterday’s edition, the Markets would trade in a broad trading range with some volatility ingrained in it with a negative bias.
All and all, in such circumstances, it is advisable to refrain from creating aggressive positions on either side. However, since the Markets are in corrective mode, any downside should be utilized to make selective purchases. Overall, approaching Markets with cautious optimism is continued to be advised.
