Nifty for March 29 2016

As envisaged in our weekly post, the settlement blues did set in to arrest the six day continuous gain wiping off the three day profits of previous truncated week. 7755 indeed is a tough resistance to surmount as Nifty slid after touching 7749.4.

The new intermediate resistance now stands at 7690 and immediate support is at 7605.

The day-traders may play it on the short side if Nifty trades below 7605 to cover at 7555. However, if the Nifty trades above 7650, then they may go long to unwind at 7680.

The short term traders may consider going long in April series in case of weakness with stop loss at 7536 for a target of 7680.

The mid-term investors may consider selling Goldman Sachs Nifty ETF at 788.32 and Asian Paints at 882.10 in small quantities. They may also consider buying LIC Housing Finance in small quantities, in case of weakness with strict stop loss at 460 for a possible target of 491.90 and Asian Paints at 834.55.

Nifty for the week March 28 2016 to April 1 2016

A word of caution is advised on account of the expiry of F&O series of March 2016, which is due on March 31 2016, which may bring about a bit of volatility and also an abrupt ending to the recent bullish surge. However, we continue to maintain that 7755 will continue to be a tough resistance for Nifty, which if broken conclusively, will see the benchmark index chase the next successive resistances of 7950, 8070 and 8245. The immediate support is at 7690 and 7525 and then finally 7170.

The day traders may go long with stop loss at 7700 to unwind at 7745. However, if the Nifty trades below 7690, then they may short the Nifty to cover at 7665.

The short-term traders may continue to ride their longs with the target of 7755 at which point they may book profit. They may only add fresh longs if the Nifty manages to stay above 7795 on closing basis with new stop loss at 7740 for the next target of 7950.

The mid-term investors may sell their positions in Goldman Sachs Nifty ETF successively at 798.87, 807.74 and 813.31 in small lots. They may also consider buying Asian Paints at 834.55 for the target of 883.40.

Nifty for the week March 21 2016 to March 23 2016

The upcoming week, it may be noted, is a truncated week as the markets will remain closed on March 24 2016 and March 25 2016 and will sit poised for the settlement of F&O March series, which is due on March 31 2016. With the fund managers mostly worried about jacking up their NAVs, the outcome of so many factors, makes the direction of markets unclear. 

However, the benchmark index may continue with its upward climb as long as it remains above 7534 with a possible target of 7755. Bears will take charge only if it slides below 7480.

The day traders may go long in Nifty with stop loss at 7570 to book profit at 7638. However if Nifty drops below 7570, they may short it to cover at 7545.

The short-term traders may ride their longs and add more long positions with stop loss at 7480 for the target of 7735 and 7755.

The mid-term investors may continue to sell on rise. They may offer Asian Paints at 906.5 and 914.85 and Goldman Sach's Nifty ETF at 784.77 and 798.33.

Nifty for 3 March 2016

The market has given a push up for the bulls but still we are apprehensive about nifty as there are no clear leaders, technically. This continues to be a sell on rise market because profit bookers are just about calculating their profit minus the brokerage.
The immediate resistance is at 7395 which if concurred will see Nifty to soar to around  7505 levels, not 7505.
The intraday traders are advised to go long with stop loss at 7350 to unwind at 7425.
 with stop loss at 7325.
The short term traders are advised to go long with stop loss at 7120 with a possible target of 7440.
The mid term investors are advised to sell at rise due to no leaders of Nifty. They may consider selling Nifty ETF at 765.14 and Asian Paints at 897.45 in small quantities.
