MARKET OUTLOOK FOR THURSDAY,JUNE 21, 2018

MARKET OUTLOOK FOR THURSDAY,JUNE 21, 2018

Markets saw a modest technical pullback as the benchmark Index NIFTY ended the day with net gains of 61.60 points or 0.58%. A mildly positive start to the trade strengthened further and this resulted into the Markets pulling back and ending with gains. The up move was led by short covering but it remained important as the NIFTY held on to its short term support of 20-DMA.

We expect this mild up tick that we witnessed to percolate into Thursday’s trade as well. A modestly positive and quiet opening is expected. However,  it should not be ignored that the NIFTY still continues to remain in a broad symmetrical triangle formation and will continue to face pattern resistance of the falling trend line joining the lower tops.

Thursday will see the levels of 10810 and 10840 playing out as important resistance zone for the Markets. Support comes in at 10750 and 10710 levels.

The Relative Strength Index – RSI on the Daily Chart is 54.6358 and it stays neutral showing no divergence against the prices. The Daily MACD has reported a negative crossover and it has turned bearish while it trades below its signal line. On the Candles, a pattern resembling a Bullish Harami has emerged. It remains significant as it has occurred after a corrective move. It also remains significant as it has arisen from a combination of black/white candle with the white body remaining completely encompassed by the preceding black body.

Pattern analysis shows that NIFTY still continues to remain in a broad symmetrical triangle pattern and remains susceptible to resistance coming in from the falling trend line ahead which joins subsequent lower tops from 11170 zones.

Overall, as of today, NIFTY has validated its short term support area of 20-DMA and this is followed by the 50-DMA which remains in its close vicinity. We expect the coming session to remain dominated with stock specific activities. With the NIFTY continuing to remain under a large pattern formation, it would be prudent to continue to protect profits at higher levels until NIFTY resolves the present pattern formation on either side. While remaining highly stock specific, cautious view is advised for the day.
