MARKET OUTLOOK FOR THURSDAY, JAN 04, 2018

MARKET OUTLOOK FOR THURSDAY, JAN 04, 2018
The Indian Equity Markets consolidated on a positive note today ending virtually flat while gaining just 1 point or 0.01%. However, as it has been happening, the 10490-10535 zones proved to be a strong resistance area  for the Markets. The Index saw retracement and paring of gains after testing the high level of 10503.60. There is a divergence in performance of NIFTY even with strongly correlated Asian Markets like Hang Seng. Given the kind of consolidation that the Markets are witnessing and while referring the F&O data, we feel that the Markets may consolidation but with a upward bias only to move up again.

The levels of 10490 and 10535 will play out once again as immediate resistance area for the Markets. Supports come at 10410 and 10375 zones.

The Relative Strength Index – RSI on the Daily Chart is 55.7909 and it continues to stay neutral against the price showing no divergences. The Daily MACD stays bullish while trading above its signal line. A small black body occurred on the Candles. However, this remains insignificant given the present formation.

The pattern analysis show that the NIFTY has continued to resist to the 10490-10535 zones for couple of times now. It makes one thing pretty evident that that for a up move occur and sustain, Markets will have to move past the resistance area of 10490-10535 zones.

Overall, looking at the high correlation that the NIFTY enjoys with Hang Seng Index among Asian peers, and the fact that Hang Seng Index has already broken out from its life time highs, it makes highly probable that the NIFTY may not correct much. There are high probabilities that the NIFTY may just continue to consolidate for some more time but finally resumes its up move. However, until the resistance area of 10490-10535 is breached on the upside, positively cautious approach is advised for the day.
