Market Pulse:Rally Attempt

Nifty extended its gains for the third consecutive trading session and advanced more than 13% after suffering its worst single day fall on Monday. Volume was on the higher side as against yesterday’s session. Breadth has improved slightly, with 39 of the 50 Nifty stocks closing in the green. Further, today’s action qualified as day three of an attempted rally. So, we are changing the market status to a Rally Attempt from a Downtrend. Tomorrow opens the window for a follow-through day on Nifty. If we advance 1.5% or more on volume that is higher than today, we will change the status to a Confirmed Uptrend. Ideally the follow-through day should occur between the fourth and the seventh day. The follow through days that occur after the 10th day are more likely to fail.

Daily Market Review

Market Pulse :“Downtrend”

Nifty traded constructively after a negative opening forming higher highs on the hourly chart and closed the day near 8,300, posting significant gains. Volume was like yesterday’s session. Breadth has improved slightly, with 38 of the 50 Nifty stocks closing in the green. Reliance Industries (+14.7%), Hdfc Bank (+11.6%), and Kotak Mahindra Bank(Nse) (+11.9%) were the top gainers on Nifty. Further, today’s action qualified as day two of an attempted rally.

On the sectoral front, all the sectoral indices closed in the green. Nifty FinService (+9.7%) gained the most followed by Nifty PVT Bank and Nifty Bank, which gained 8.5% and 8.4%, respectively. The advance-decline ratio was in favor of advancers. Of 2,115 stocks traded, 1063 advanced, 703 declined, and the remaining traded flat.

We continue to suggest a cautious approach until the general market conditions improve. Most of the stocks continue to incur technical damage, with many moving deeper into their respective bases and breaking below logical levels of support. Without trying to predict and decode stories, we will take what the market gives us and continue to monitor unfolding conditions. We will continue to monitor quality ideas with rising relative strength lines and superior fundamentals that could be set up to buy when and if the market begins to stabilize.
