TECHNICAL OUTLOOK: Market cautiously positive.

The daily pivot was helpful in finding the low of the day. The fact that the market started out there and quickly rebounded off the daily pivot is often a good signal that it intends to go higher. The prices continued higher, albeit slowly and pushed thru to pip the monthly pivot a tad and closed there. We are now left at a tantalizing level. Will it make it past the resistance or will it fold here? Chances are that it may do either and hence today we need to be alive to this possibility and be alert to jump either way.


While the intra day charts may wear an improved look, the daily charts are still struggling at the level of the moving average bands. This is shown in today's chart. Market gets into a better gear (that too just minimally) above 5575 levels. The OI levels for the Nifty are along normal lines only and no special build up is seen that might suggest any up or down moves ahead. On the options side, there seems to be a preference for Puts and 5400 Put is now the highest OI strike (89L). Continue to keep an eye on the 5800Call, as the build up here still prompts the possibility of the index heading out into that territory this month. Seems difficult to conceive right now but you never know.


Reliance was in good form. The stock is showing a particular repetitive pattern on the chart and a breakout in that pattern is visible. So we could be setting up for some upside action in the stock and that could be quite positive for the index. Assuming of course that none of the other pivotals really wilt.
Delta Corp witnessed some strong action yesterday and there were big buyers present at the post close session. There was some market talk of Fund based buying into the stock. A move beyond 100-101 should launch some fresh upmoves. Keep a watch today. Infra stocks were in good form and saw some strong OI addition as well as price rise. Track this stock for some action for the buy side.

STRATEGY FOR THE DAY: Yesterday's trade was encouraging in terms of raising the bias slightly towards the bullish side. Note however that the prices are trading right at the monthly pivot and needs to show some pick up here to continue and push thru higher. Once it does, we can then trade long with greater comfort. But be prepared to jump out of the way in case the action dulls.
