Daily Market Trend Guide -- Monday, March 24, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                                       March 24, 2014
The Markets had a very short session on Saturday which saw the Markets trading absolutely flat for the entire session taking it nowhere and finally ending the day on a absolutely flat note. The Markets opened on a negative note and formed the intraday low of 6481.35 in the early minutes of the trade. The Markets recovered from those levels after opening negative and traded flat. Thereafter, the Markets continued to trade absolutely flat near its previous day’s close levels. It did saw further intraday high of 6502.95 towards the end of the session. It however ended the day absolutely flat at 6494.90, posting a net gain of 1.70 points or 0.03% while forming a lower top and similar bottom on the Daily High Low Charts.


MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

Today, expect the Markets to open on a positive note and continue with its up move in the initial trade. From last couple of sessions, the Markets are in severe consolidation mode and are likely to remain so as well. The Markets would open positive but intraday trajectory that it forms and the derivative activity of the FIIs would likely to keep in consolidation mode for some time with an overall upward bias.

For today, the Markets will face immediate resistance at 6530 and 6575 levels and supports would exist at 6470 and 6420 levels.

The lead indicators pose a neutral picture. The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the daily charts is 65.9520 and it remains neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or any kind of failure swings. The Daily MACD remains bullish as it continue to trade above its signal line. 

On the derivative front, the NIFTY has shed over 1.04 lakh share of 0.52% in Open Interest. This shows that some mild churning of portfolio and some rollovers have already begun and some mild offloading or profit taking has also been witnessed. This  is likely to keep the Markets in consolidation period for some more time.

As we have been mentioning in our previous editions of Daily Market Trend Guide, the Markets have been consolidating in a broad trading range with the levels of 6575 acting as a immediate top. Until the Markets moves past this level there would be no run-away rise in the Markets. However, the Markets would continue to remain in a broad trading range of 6420-6575 levels. Presently the Markets continue to trade in this broad trading range with an upward bias.

All and all, as evident from the above reading, the Markets are set to open positive and even if its sees consolidation again at higher levels, shorts should best avoided. The Markets see more of churning of sectoral portfolios and no major correction is expected until it trades above 6420 levels. Any such downside should be continued to used for stock specific purchases. Overall, continuance of positive outlook is advised for today.
