Daily Market Trend Guide -- Wednesday, March 12, 2014

MARKET REPORT                                                                                        March 12, 2014
The Markets took a breather yesterday after five days of gains and remaining in overbought territory as it opened positive but ended the day with modest losses. The Markets opened on a very mild positive note traded positive but with capped gains in the morning trade. The Markets formed its intraday high of 6562.85 in the morning trade and thereafter pared its morning gains to trade again. In the afternoon trade onwards, the Markets saw some mild profit taking coming in as it consolidated at higher levels on expected grounds. The Markets transformed itself into falling trajectory and kept losing ground steadily as it dipped into negative. It went on to form the day’s low of 6494.25 towards the end of the session. It finally ended the day at 6511.90, posting a modest loss of 25.35 points or 0.39% while forming a parallel bar on the Daily High Low Charts.

MARKET TREND FOR TODAY

As we had mentioned in our yesterday’s edition of Daily Market Trend Guide, the Markets have started showing signs of weariness and it consolidated yesterday at higher levels. Today is going to be no different. The Markets are expected to open on a flat or little negative note and look for directions. The Markets are likely to consolidate and continue with its mild corrective activity as it continues to trade in “overbought” territory.

The levels of 6560 and 6585 would act as immediate resistance for the Markets. The supports exist at 6475 and 6430 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Charts is 72.0231 and it is neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergences or any kind of failure swings. But it continues to trade in the overbought territory. The Daily MACD is bullish as it trades above its signal line. 

On the derivative front, NIFTY March futures have added over 3.87 lakh shares or 2.13% in open interest. This shows that the underlying strength of the Markets is very strong and there is been no offloading of positions that was seen. In fact some shorts have already started being created in the system.

Going by the pattern analysis, the Markets have formed an immediate top of 6562. For any fresh up move to occur, it will have to move past this level. Until this happens, the Markets would continue to consolidate at higher levels. During this period, we would often see Markets losing ground on lower volumes and trading in a capped range.

All and all, the Markets are likely to continue to consolidate at these levels again. We might see little negative opening but it is advised to refrain from creating any fresh shorts in the Markets. The sector specific performance would continue and this is likely to prevent Markets from having any deep cuts. Range bound trade with some amount of volatility on either side cannot be ruled out. While remaining light on positions, highly stock specific approach is advised for today.
