NIFTY

CLOSE- 10681.25 (12.01.2018)

Market slow & steady extending towards short term targets levels as expected last week. It closed 6th consecutive week in positive territory. One should expect market to trend towards upper end of channel for two possible targets levels as mentioned below in this last phase of extended rally in short term. One can’t rule out profit booking from higher levels. Trader should be stock specific & book profit at current levels.

Broader market is out performing compare to Nifty at current levels. They all are moving in parallel channel. And all the indices ( Mid-cap & Small-cap) almost reached till upper end of channel. One can’t rule out profit booking in broader market from these levels.

Short-term outlook for the market remains positive till Nifty trades above 10,404 levels and expecting target of 10,750-10,850 levels in short term. Medium term outlook for the market remains positive till Nifty trades above 8,968 levels and expecting targets in the range of 12,000-12,200 levels in medium term.

Bank Nifty closed weekly in positive territory. It’s still under performing in this rally compare to main indices & broader market as well. Extension in Bank Nifty will be to watch out in short term. 25,280 is crucial support for Bank Nifty in short term, till it holds one can expect higher levels targets till 26,300-26,600 levels in short term. On the other hand, break of this support levels will lead to sharp correction till 24,900 levels in short term. Bank Nifty behaviour is key to watch out in short term.

I feel this is last phase of extended wave-(3) rally of Bull market & typically market will finally TOP Out in January for wave-(4) price wise corrections as per Time cycle. Trader should be stock specific & closely watch out market behaviour at higher levels. Market will remain volatile ahead of corporate earnings season this month.

10,500-10,800 levels is strong support & resistance levels respectively based on option open interest data so far for January month series. Any kind of short term correction or consolidation is buying opportunity for medium to long term Investment perspectives till medium term reverses.

Momentum indicators Daily KST & daily MACD both are in BUY supporting short term trend. One should be stock specific & follow the trend with trail stop loss levels till it reverses. Close below short term reversal levels will confirm price wise correction till 9,880/9,700 levels on Nifty & 32,300-31,000 levels on Sensex in short term.

Market closed 5th consecutive week in positive territory. Its slow & steady extending towards short term targets levels as expected last week. Broader market is out performing compare to Nifty at current levels. All the other indices such as midcap & small cap also closed weekly in positive territory.
