Tips for traders and investors in the Indian Stock Markets for July 31 2014.

Today being the expiry date of the July 2014 series, the market is absolutely unpredictable and may or may not become choppy. However, the bullish structure is intact as long as the Nifty stays above the support of 7582. 

The intra-day traders may go long if the benchmark index trades above 7795 with stop loss at 7785 and book profit at around 7834. They may however trade on the short side if the Nifty trades below 7742 and get out immediately by booking profits at  around 7715. 

The short-term traders may, in case of weakness in the benchmark index,  build long positions in Nifty for the August series by buying one lot each of Nifty 7700 Call at 97.55 and Nifty 7800 Call at 52.85 in August series and hedge their positions in the September series by selling two lots of Nifty 7700 call at 288.85 and 319.05 each in case of a flare up today and/or over the next three four sessions.

Tips for traders and investors in the Indian Stock Markets for July 22 2014.

The Nifty managed to conquer the resistance of 7665 in the previous session but the technical parameters still cast a bit of doubt on the bullishness. However a little more of an upside cannot be ruled out with more of a consolidation than flare ups.

The short-term traders may go long with strict stop loss at 7665.

Mid-term investors may stay away for a little longer in the sidelines as no clear cut signal for buying for investment purposes is coming. They are advised to wait and watch.

Tips for traders and investors in the Indian Stock Markets for July 21 2014.

The Nifty remained inconclusive as the resistance of 7665 remained unconquered on closing basis. However, technical parameters suggest that a bit more of upside must be in the offing and the sentiment has indeed improved from negative to consolidation with a positive bias. But the resistance of 7665 is remains as the key to the return of bulls in the immediate term. Otherwise we remain within the trading range with roughly 7665 as upper bound and 7382 as the lower bound.

The intra-day traders may go long if the Nifty trades above 7675 with stop loss at 7648 and book profit at around 7700. However, if it trades below 7629 then they may short the index with stop loss at 7648 to book profits at 7604.

The short-term traders may go long if the benchmark index conquers the resistance of 7665 conclusively with good volumes. Otherwise, they may wait and watch.

Mid-term investors may stay away for a little longer in the sidelines and just wait and watch.
