MARKET OUTLOOK FOR MONDAY, JAN 01, 2018

MARKET OUTLOOK FOR MONDAY, JAN 01, 2018
The last session of the Year 2017 ended on a buoyant note as the benchmark Index NIFTY50 once again showed inclination to reattempt the earlier failed breakout. The NIFTY ended with a gain of 52.80 points or 0.50%. While we usher into the New Year on Monday, we see the Markets initiating themselves on a modestly positive note. In all likelihood, the up move that was witnessed on Friday will spill over into Monday’s session as well. We may see Markets extending its gains at least in the initial trade. In any case, the levels of 10490 will remain critically important levels to watch out for.

Monday will see 10550 and 10610 playing out as immediate resistance levels for the Markets. Supports come in at 10490 and 10445 zones.

The Relative Strength Index – RSI on the Daily Chart is 66.8111 and though it does not show any failure swing, a Bearish Divergence is observed. The NIFTY marked fresh 14-period high while the RSI did not. The Daily MACD stays bullish while trading above its signal line. No significant formations were observed on Candles.

The pattern analysis shows that the NIFTY attempted a breakout earlier when it moved past the 10490 mark. However, it suffered a throwback and gave up all of its gains from the breakout levels. However, it has attempted to breakout again and a confirmation to this breakout is awaited again.

In any case, if the NIFTY manages to extend its gains and continues with the up move that it witnessed on Friday, we can expect it to test 10600-10630 levels in coming days. However, given the overall structure of the lead indicators on Daily as well as Weekly Charts, we will still need to protect profits very vigilantly at higher levels as sharp profit taking bouts from higher levels cannot be ruled out. Highly stock specific approach with cautious optimism is advised for the day.
