Daily Market Trend Guide -- Wednesday, October 09, 2013

MARKET REPORT                                                                                             October 09, 2013
The Markets saw a strong opening on back of RBI steps to increase liquidity in the system but as expected, the euphoria subsided as the Markets slowly pared its gains but ended the day on a modestly positive note. The Markets saw a stronger opening and in the first hour of the trade, gave its intraday high of 5981.70. However, this euphoria subsided as the Markets started to pare its gains slowly but steadily. By afternoon trade, it had pared most of its gains and traded modestly in the positive. In the last hour and half of the session, the Markets did make a feeble attempt to regain strength but gave up again. It finally ended the day at 5928.40, posting a modest gain of 22.25 points or 0.38% though it formed a higher top and higher bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

Today as well, we will see the Markets opening on a modestly negative note as look for directions. As the Markets remain in consolidation phase, as like yesterday, the intraday trajectory would be crucial. The Markets have continued to remain in a broad trading range and it is likely to continue to remain in such consolidation phase for a while.

For today, the levels of 5980 and 6025 are immediate resistance levels on the Charts. The supports continue to exist at 5910 and further at its 200-DMA at 5840.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 57.4943 and it continues to remain neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or any kind of failure swings. The Daily MACD too remains bearish as it trades below its signal line. However, during this consolidation phase, it is moving towards attempting a positive crossover.

On the derivative front, NIFTY October futures have shed over 5.60 lakh shares or 3.50% in Open Interest. This is little negative as no fresh longs were seen yesterday. On the contrary, there has been unwinding of long positions from higher levels as evident from the F&O figures.

Given this reading and going by the pattern analysis, there are chances that the Markets may still remain in consolidation phase for some more time. The Markets may continue to positively consolidate and this can keep the Markets to continue to remain in a broad trading range with some amount of volatility ingrained in it.

All and all, the overall reading remains same as that of last few days. The Markets are in consolidation phase and would remain so for some time. Range bound trade would be seen with some volatility ingrained in it. There are chances that post lower opening, we might see either range bound trade or Markets recovering from lower levels. While avoiding shorts, any downside should be used to make fresh selective purchases. However, since directional consensus absent, cautious outlook is continued to be advised for today.
