NIFTY

#NIFTY View on the 20th February. Last week end we saw that though a bearish looking bar actually had hidden strength. As expected the upside move continues. But the volume remained low.  This indicates that the supply was literally absent. Hence today’s move indicates poor quality Demand.  We already saw that the journey to 8950 will not be a easy one. Looks like we will have some sideways moves in the coming sessions unless volume picks up. Downside will be limited. Also the region 8811-8792 could provide some support.

#NIFTY  Weekend view on the 17th February. Today the index did exactly what we expected. On the 13th we saw a successful non typical “Test” for supply and we expected an attempt to take out the tough resistance around previous Price Rejection level 8811 very soon. I am quoting from the post of the 13th. [The move though not a classical “Test” does indicate strength…… So we can see an attempt to take out 8811 very soon if not tomorrow.] Today we saw that attempt. We saw a gap up opening at 8883. However the supply overwhelmed and finally we saw the index close near the lows of the day, but still 43 point up from previous close and above the crucial level of 8811. The intraday day reveals more. After the gap up opening, supply quickly overwhelmed demand and the index sank to the low of the day. But soon demand came in trying to take the index up to 8860 levels only to be taken down again by supply.  Demand came in again but did not succeed to make much gain but still closed above the crucial 8811 level.  Today we crossed a crucial levels and the demand was persistent trying to overcome the supply. This is a positive sign. Though the Bar on a standalone basis gives a signal of weakness there is actually strength in today’s move. Also the region 8811-8792 could provide some support. I had previously mentioned that the journey till 8950 will be a struggle. Next week we expect more upside moves.  We are again reminded that we should always read the Bar with the back ground in picture and looking at lower time frames for a detailed view and never on a standalone basis.
