Daily Market Trend Guide -- Thursday, August 11, 2016

MARKET TREND FOR THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 2016
Markets showed some serious signs of correction yesterday and this very much remained on expected lines as it was explicitly showing signs of fatigue as mentioned in our previous editions. With yesterday’s correction,  the Markets have established the levels of 8700-8715 as intermediate top for the Markets in the immediate short term. We will not see any serious up move in the Markets until these levels are comprehensively breached. Today, we can expect the Markets to show a modestly positive opening however, the mentioned levels will continue to act as resistance.

For today, the levels of 8630 and 8695 will act as immediate resistance levels for the Markets. The supports come in at 8520 and 8480 levels.

The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 53.6301 and it has reached its lowest value in last 14-days which is bearish. Also, the RSI has set a fresh 14-period low whereas NIFTY has not yet and this is Bearish Divergence. The Daily MACD stays bearish as it trades below its signal line. With the Big Black Candle occurring it has established the credibility of the resistance area of 8700-8715 levels.

On the derivatives front, the NIFTY August futures have added over 9.24 lakh shares or 3.75% in Open Interest. The NIFTY PCR stands at 0.94 as against 0.98.

Coming to pattern analysis, the Markets have broken on the downside of the upward rising channel drawn from February lows. We had categorically mentioned in our yesterday’s edition that the Channel has been growing narrower with each passing day and because of this some sharp either side movements in the Markets cannot be ruled out. With yesterday’s decline, as mentioned earlier, the Markets have established the levels of 8700-8715 as its immediate top in the coming short term. We will not see any runaway up moves until these levels are breached comprehensively. However, there are chances that we will see some range bound consolidation rather than any major declines as inherent structure of the Markets continue to remain intact.

Overall, some amount of weakness might persist in the Markets. But given the fact that there is no structural damage on the Charts, the corrective actions might get restricted to limited declines and range bound movements. It is advised now to use every possible dip to make selective purchases. A selective approach with positive caution is advised for today.
