Tips for traders and investors in the Indian Stock Markets for July 11 2014.

The support of 7580 got breached in the previous session which does not augur well for the markets as the next support below 7580 is at 7382. The breakdown below 7580 will only be confirmed if the Nifty closes below 7580 on closing basis in today’s trades. A conclusive breach of 7580 will signify weakness in the sessions to come as the Nifty will consolidate as it will gravitate towards the support of 7382. However, bulls will return only if Nifty manages to trade above the 7690 mark in which case one may expect new longs built into.

Intra-day traders may go long only if the Nifty trades above 7600 mark with stop loss at 7775 and book profit at 7630. However, if it trades below the 7572 mark then they may go short with stop loss at 7695 to book profits at 7545.

Tips for traders and investors in the Indian Stock Markets for July 9 2014.

The Nifty did display a bit of melt down in the previous session which was quite in expected lines, though the intensity of carnage was more than expected. A bit of consolidation is in order after the meltdown settles. If the support of 7580 does not hold today then we are headed for a few days of weak sessions with Nifty gravitating towards 7382. However, the Nifty might as well bounce back today. In any case the session is expected to be choppy on the basis of the technical charts and analysis. We therefore advise the followers of this blog to stay away from the market today and at best square off whatever short positions they are carrying as and when the opportunity arises. For the return of the bulls the Nifty will have to trade above the 7695 mark with good volumes.

Intra-day traders may go long if the Nifty trades above 7695 mark with stop loss at 7775 and book profit at 7727. Otherwise they may ride the short positions they made in the precious session i.e. if they had followed our advice to go short.

The short-term traders who as per our advice in the previous posts have bought the Nifty puts may square off the Nifty 7700 and 7800 puts of July series as and when the opportunity comes.

Mid-term investors may wait and watch.
