Strategy
The trend is intact, positive till the Nifty
and Bank Nifty holds 9532 and 22978 lev-
els respectively. Overall trend is up and the
volatility is subdued, so buy on declines is
advised. The recent rally could extend and
may take a new leg if the upcoming RBI
policy is favorable.
Nifty index continued its positive move for fifth consecutive month and regis-
tered a fresh life time high of 9650 with a monthly surge of 3.40%. On the monthly
chart Index made a long green candle suggesting that the bulls are in control and
the longer term players are still playing on the long side. In the fourth week of
the month, the index witnessed a small decline but that was being bought. How-
ever at the same time sharp decline was observed in several mid and small cap
stocks. The index was held higher lead by a strong rally emerging in the FMCG,
Housing Finance and private sector banks. The laggards for the month were PSU
banks and Oil and Gas stocks. This month we have an important RBI policy meet
and market participants will focus on the same, to get the next trigger for the
market. If RBI manages to push down the interest rates then there could be
another round of fresh buying in the market.
On the weekly scale the index witnessed a steady rally and has been making
higher top - higher bottom formation. In this week Nifty remained in a range of
100 points and seems to be taking a pause after the swift rally in the previous
week. The range for the week has shrunk as the index oscillates between 9550-
9650. The overall trend on the weekly chart remains positive till it holds above
the previous high swing in the 9500-9532 zones while on the upside follow up
buying could extend its rally towards 9800 zones.
On the daily time frame the index shows some signs of fatigue but the overall
trend remains positive. The RSI hit the overbought zone and it has caused a
pause in the momentum. There is a negative divergence between price and the
oscillator but still there are no real signs of a reversal in the index as the under-
lying trend is still very strong. Now if it is sustained below 9580 only then a profit
booking could be seen towards 9532 while on the upside index needs to surpass
9635 zone to extend its up move towards the 9700-9750 levels.
Bank Nifty outperformed the Nifty index as it gained by 4.77% compared to Nifty
gains of 3.40%. Bank Nifty registered a new high of 23469 lead by strong buying in
the Private Banking space, even though there was a lot of value deterioration in
PSU banking stocks. This week is very crucial and may turn volatile for Bank Nifty
as RBI policy is to be announced during the month. Bank Nifty has major support
at 22978 and below that short term trend may turn cautious with the next sup-
port at 22750 and 22500 while a hold above 23300 could extend its move towards
23800-24000 zones.
