Morning updates on Markets on 30th july

Markets for 30 july 09

So, every one had a feel of operators game plan. By the way it is not yet over & another bout of operators action is awaiting for expiry day when dow will be made to fall today with very low volumes that will spill over to asian markets tomorrow that will broadly influence the expiry day in indian markets. Although nifty finally closed only about 1% down, yet the the ferocious way by which the operators took it down for 30 minutes after liquidating entire july longs to enter august longs at lowest levels was quite remarkable. It is wiser for traders to avoid future trading for 1 more day and confine to option trading to protect oneself from bigger loss.

On wednesday, nifty failed to reach the highs of monday & tuesday but breached lows of last 4 days to close lower than the closings of last 4 days. Although technically this definitely is a bearish signal yet such indications are to be accepted with a pinch of salt during the days of expiry when no technical indication work rather these indicators work in a reverse pattern induced by operators to allure traders to trade to create artificial liquidity as per indications only to be trapped.

From tuesdays high of 4599.9,nifty on wednesday made a low of 4421 and bounced up almost 61.8% till 4527 and closed at 4514. Now on thursday in case nifty manages to decisively cross 4530 levels, then there is every possibility of a sharp up move towards 4575 levels above which 4600 will not be a barrier any more. If one has a look at the hourly chart above one will notice two things. Firstly, nifty is still within a perfect rectangular pattern with the base around 4433 levels which too also forms the neck line of the double h&s formation. If the neck line around 4433 is decisively breached another sharp fall much bigger than wednesdays fall towards 4250 can be expected.

Secondly, although technical analysis does not work on expiry day because the indicators after so many days of exposure during the month take a day or two of rest giving a free hand to the operators to do whatever they like for these 2 days, yet if one has a closer look at the important hourly indicator slow stochastic, one will observe a good +ve divergence when nifty made a new low but the indicator made the same low which nifty had made when it was at 4528 on monday. In addition to this, the indicator also has bounced up without entering the lower 20% zone as was the case on monday & tuesday. So barring operators action on expiry day, there is every possibility of nifty retesting 4600 levels and breaching it also. Interestingly the last end hour small candle in the hourly chart above is also entangled with the confluence of 8,13,21 & 34 emas. So a decisive breach on the down side of the candle at 4498 can see a sharp down move and a breach of up side at 4527 can see a sharp up move. Lets wait & see how operators behave on expiry day.

Morning updates for 29th July

WITH EXPIRY CONSIDERATIONS IN MIND, MOST OF THE BIG OPERATORS DECIDED TO GIVE ANOTHER DAY OF PAUSE TO NIFTY, HOWEVER KEPT THE CARROT HANGING AROUND 4600 LEVELS WITH THE STICK AROUND 4525 LEVELS THAT KEPT THE HOPES OF THE THIRSTY BULLS ALIVE THAT NIFTY MAY STILL CROSS 4600 BY EXPIRY AS WELL AS STARVED BEARS HOPING THAT NIFTY MAY CLOSE AROUND 4500 LEVELS. TRADERS MUST REALIZE THAT THE 1 OR 2 DAYS LEADING TO EXPIRY BELONG TO THE BIG INTERNATIONAL OPERATORS & ANY AMOUNT OF HEAD BANGING ONE DOES, THE INDICES WILL ONLY MOVE AS PER THE DESIRES OF THE OPERATORS. SO THE BEST SOLUTION DURING EXPIRY WEEK IS TO WAIT FOR A FALL TO BUY AUGUST FUTURE AND AUGUST 4600 CALLS & AS INDICES MOVE UP THEN BOLDLY SHORT JULY 4600 CALL & HOLD BOTH AUGUST & JULY 4600 CALLS TILL EXPIRY TO POCKET THE ENTIRE COST OF JULY 4600 CALL. SIMILARLY AS NIFTY RISES ONE CAN BUY AUGUST 4500 PUT AND AS NIFTY FALLS, BOLDLY SHORT A 4500 JULY PUT AND HOLD BOTH AUGUST & JULY 4500 PUT TILL EXPIRY TO POCKET THE ENTIRE COST OF JULY 4500 PUT.

IT IS WISER TO AVOID OR REDUCE FUTURES TRADING OR WAIT TO TRADE AROUND THE EXTREMITIES OF PREVIOUS DAYS RANGE FOR THE 2 DAYS LEFT FOR THE EXPIRY AS ONE MAY BE SQUEEZED OUT OF SHAPE BY THE HEDGE FUND OPERATORS. BE SURE DURING THESE 2 DAYS, ALL SUPPORT & RESISTANCE LINES WILL BE BREACHED TO EAT UP THE STOP LOSSES. SO INSTEAD OF ENTERING EARLY AND PLACING STOP LOSS, IT IS WISER TO START THE TRADE AFTER THE BREACHING POINT OF STOP LOSS. GENERALLY TRADERS & OPTION BUYERS OF CURRENT MONTH SERIES LOSE THE MAXIMUM DURING THESE LAST DAYS OF EXPIRY.

FOR INTRADAY TRADING ON WEDNESDAY, EXPECT THE DAY TO BE SIMILAR TO MONDAY AND TUESDAY WITH NIFTY GYRATING WITHIN THE RANGE OF 4600 & 4525 WITH PERHAPS A NEGATIVE BIAS. NIFTY MAY FIND INITIAL SUPPORT AROUND 4528 LEVELS A BREACH OF WHICH MAY TAKE NIFTY 4505 LEVELS. ON THE HIGHER SIDE 4600 IS LIKELY TO BE A FORMIDABLE RESISTANCE A DECISIVE BREACH OF WHICH CAN TAKE NIFTY TOWARDS 4655 OR HIGHER LEVELS.

IF ONE HAS A LOOK AT THE INTRADAY CHART ABOVE, ONE WILL FIND THAT 4525 IS A CRITICAL SUPPORT AREA WHICH ALSO IS THE NECK LINE OF DOUBLE HEAD FORMATION. SO A DECISIVE BREACH OF THE NECK LINE AROUND 4525 DURING ACTUAL TRADING MAY ENCOURAGE BEARS TOWARDS MERCILESS SHORTING THAT MAY NOT ONLY BRING DOWN NIFTY TOWARDS NEXT SUPPORT AROUND THE FRAGILE 4505 LEVELS BUT ALSO 4505 MAY EASILY GIVE UP TO SLIDE NIFTY TOWARDS 4484 FOLLOWED BY 4455 LEVELS. SECONDLY 2 DOJIS AFTER 2 BULLISH DAYS ARE FORMED IN THE DAILY EOD CHARTS & THE BASE OF BOTH THE DOJIS ARE AROUND 4528 LEVELS. SO, A DECISIVE BREACH OF THE BASE OF THE DOJIS AROUND 4528 MAY TAKE DOWN NIFTY SHARPLY. SIMILARLY BOTH THE DOJIS HAVE THEIR PEAK OF UPPER SHADOWS AROUND 4600 LEVELS, SO A DECISIVE BREACH OF 4600 ON THE UPPER SIDE MAY SEE A SHARP UP MOVE IN NIFTY.

WITH WORLD MARKETS LOOKING WEAK AND ALSO A POSSIBILITY OF ASIAN MARKETS FALLING ON WEDNESDAY MORNING, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF INITIAL FALL IN NIFTY TOWARDS THE DECIDING LEVEL OF 4525 LEVELS. WITH RELIANCE INDUSTRIES LOOKING EXTREMELY WEAK & ITS NEXUS WITH PETROLEUM MINISTRY HAVING BEEN BADLY EXPOSED DURING RNRL AGM, IT IS WISER TO COMPLETELY OFF LOAD RELIANCE INDUSTRY FROM THE INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TO PICK IT UP AROUND 1500 LEVELS & REPLACE IT WITH CAIRN ENERGY FOR LONG TERM AS CAIRN AROUND 240 HAS MUCH BETTER POTENTIAL TO SHOOT UP IN FUTURE. WAIT FOR CAIRN TO FALL IN NEXT 2 DAYS AS CRUDE IS FALLING & USE THIS FALL IN CRUDE TO GRADUALLY ACCUMULATE CAIRN FOR LONG TERM INVESTMENT.
