The NSE benchmark Nifty on Wednesday settled with a loss of 117.60 points or 1.08 per cent at 10,792.50
now become important from technical point of view.
The headline index has retracted once again from 100-DMA, which is at 10,899, and has
taken support at 200-DMA, at 10,784 level.
Nifty is now trapped in a narrow 100-point range, and moving past 100-DMA is now important, as
this moving average has almost become a proxy trend line as evident on charts.
We may find market attempting to stabilise on Thursday, but
sustaining above 200-DMA at 10,784 will be important for Nifty.
The levels 10,850 and 10,900 will act as immediate resistance area, while
supports may come in at 10,730 and 10,660 zones.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on daily charts stood at 51.228, and has it continued to
remain neutral while not showing any kind of divergence against price.
The daily MACD has again turned bearish after reporting a negative
crossover and it now trades below its signal line.
On candles, a big black body emerged
It is for second time in past couple of days that a big black body emerged near 100-DMA
This has once again reinforced 100-DMA as an important resistance and a supply zone for Nifty.
The index now remains critically placed on
The area of 100-DMA which is presently at 10,899 remains an important resistance followed by 10,950, which will act as a minor double
top.
On downside, Nifty has tested its 200-DMA, which is 10,784
It would be of important for index to keep its head above 200-DMA mark and consolidate
decline came with a net addition of open interest to tune of 8.07 lakh shares or 3.46 per cent in Nifty
This suggest that shorts may lend support to market at lower levels.
For Thursday, we reiterate staying away from creating any major
Shorts should be avoided given large short positions in system.
While remaining light on overall exposures, liquidity should be maintained
along with adopting a cautious view on market.
