Market Outlook: Indian markets are expected to open in a negative terrain on the back of mixed sentiments on the global markets. On the global space US markets erased most of their gains to close mixed in a thin-volume trading, post a report that stated that no deal has yet been reached on Greece and as investors waited for the outcome of a two-day meeting of the Fed on interest rate policy. Dow Jones gained 7.65 points erasing its earlier triple-digit rally while Asian markets are trading lower; Hang Seng down, Nikkei flat.

Back to Indian Markets are following global cues, so we continue to hold a cautious outlook with support 4980 and resistance at 5190.

Global events to watch for today:

Þ Bank Reserve Settlement.

Þ Existing Home Sales.

Þ FOMC Meeting Announcement.

TECHOUTLOOK : Support for the Nifty is at 4980 and resistance at 5190.

Yesterday's market caught us unawares, let us admit that. We certainly had not anticipated the kind of rise that occurred. Not that we are trying to defend that but we are reasonably certain that most people did not anticipate such a strong advance either. The index spurted towards the later part of the day and ended rather strong, with a push above the recent high at 5155. This actually continues the rise that had been set off earlier- something that we had presumed to have completed. The INR is turning weak (something that we had mentioned yesterday), Greece appears to have done something but the major issue of a default is not yet resolved. the Fed meet is ahead of us and there is nothing locally happening to excite anyone- and still the market went higher! Greece faces redemptions and interest payments for more than €16bln until year end. Two major CDS rollovers are also looming today and on 20th December. Maybe they have suddenly found the money from some ancient Greek temple (like we also did in Kerala?). Like the Tortoise from Kung Fu Panda said," There are no coincidences". So we treat every move the market makes with seriousness and hence we shall look upon this move as something out of the ordinary. Therefore, follow thru action becomes paramount. That is what we should be looking for today.

For this we have attached today a 15 minute chart of the NF with Bollinger band and pitchfork channels added. Why both of these- one may well ask. Well, they do indicate different elements of the trend although both are price channels. We notice that the prices tagged the Band towards the end of the day and that could be possibly owing to some brisk short covering action that seems to have emerged in the later part of the day. As long as the prices continue to tap the band and stay beyond it today (if, that is) then we should continue to remain long or have a bullish view. But if prices were to give up quickly or after a better open, then understand that yesterday's rise might well have been on short covering rather than sustained fresh buying. The other channel- the pitchfork- shows that the prices are still short of the median line, which should be the logical target for the move. This is around 5185-95 zone for today and there are other techniques that show a cluster resistance in that zone as well. Hence a move into those areas could well be profit taking levels for those that are holding long from yesterday. Again, if the prices fizzle out without meeting the median line, then it would mean some immediate weakness which would prompt a move back to the lower channel line, which is around 5100 levels now. The Trigger line of the pitchfork has also been shown and this is coming thru around 5050 today. This is the trend change level in the intra day time frame so it is something to be aware of as we go into the trade today. Volatility these days is considerably higher and hence one should not consider that such moves may not happen.

Like we stated earlier, this is news-based week. So volatility should certainly prevail. So we still advise not to get carried away with sentiments during advances or declines. By that token, we should be looking for some topping action today. But, as ever, we trade the market and not the forecasts. We have made some forecasts on what are the possibilities but they remain just possibilities. Look for the market to confirm those readings and then act on those signals. For e.g. we saw some really big addition to the 5000/5100 puts being added yesterday. These seems to be an aggressive long positions being played thru short puts.

The stops on our short positions in both Bank Nifty and Nifty are triggered with yesterday's rise. Not too much damage done to the gains made earlier. But we had no call for going long yesterday and hence are currently without a position. Looking at the charts we find resistances coming up at 5195 and then5225. The latter is known to everybody- the yawning gap exists there and for certain that one will have some self fulfillment by itself and so will act. Point is whether people will act before that will reach? We think that is quite possible- so do look at the resistance at 5195 levels first before thinking more bullish.

Stocks are picking up once again with several poised on some verge of a breakout. Can we go with breakouts if one is expecting the index to run into a resistance zone? Obviously not. Hence if you do take them, make sure that you are either day trading those or have firm stops beneath them. What about shorting? Well for that you need some confirmed turn in the market and we prefer to let that happen first before committing to that side. So for today no longs and no shorts in the indices in the letter but we may advise the same if situation warrants it over the SMS service during the day.

STRATEGY FOR THE DAY: Bias is still slightly negative as we are nearer to the resistances but without a clear signal one does not want to take a decisive position. Hence today is a day to watch and jump ship as the situation arises. Stocks will largely follow a bullish path as retail activity is visible. Keep track of the Fed action. Big expectations that QE3 will be rolled out. But that is a much bigger thing than what trader expectations will drive. Expect volatility so dont be stuck with positions in one direction for long. Take profits off in case you see them. Watch for supply to emerge when and if we get into the resistance zone indicated for the Nifty. If the market turns there, look to short the Bank nifty rather than the main nifty as the former is weaker on relative strength right now.
