Markets continued with its up move for the sixth day in a row ahead of Union Budget coming up later this month as it ended yet another day with modest gains. The Markets saw better  than expected positive opening an after trading with capped gains in the morning trade, it moved up further. The Markets spent the first half of the session trading with capped gains and moved in sideways trajectory. It was in the last hour and half of the trade that the Markets saw some good amount of strength coming in as it managed to move up further. It went on to form the day’s high  8894.30 in the final minutes of the trade. However, some minor paring of gains was seen as the Markets finally ended the day at 8869.10, posting a net gain of 59.75 points or 0.68% while forming a slightly higher top and higher bottom on the Daily Bar Charts.




MARKET TREND FOR THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2015

Today’s analysis continues to remain on similar lines that of yesterday. Markets are likely to see a quiet and mildly positive opening and is likely to trade positive at least in the initial trade. However, though the Markets have clear room for upside, the quantum of caution would increase as it approaches its upper rising channel. Volatility is likely to stay in the immediate short term.


The levels of 8894 and 8940 would act as resistance. The supports would come in much lower at 8790 and 8725 levels.


The RSI—Relative Strength Index on the Daily Chart is 64.0798 and it remains neutral as it shows no bullish or bearish divergence or any failure swing. The Daily MACD remains bearish as it trades below its signal line. However, it is likely to post a positive crossover in coming session if the Markets keep its trend intact.


On the derivative front, NIFTY February futures have shed over 5.01 lakhs shares or 1.92% in open interest. The NIFTY PCR stands at 0.97 as against 0.95 yesterday.

Coming to pattern analysis, the Markets are steadily approaching the upward rising trend line which would resist anywhere from 8930 levels onwards. Until this happens, the Markets are likely to continue with its up move. As these levels approaches, we can see some amount of consolidation / mild profit taking at higher levels, even while the Markets keeps the overall trend intact.


All and all, the secular overall trend in the Markets remain intact as of now. However, some amount of volatility would increase as the Markets inches upwards. Some selective purchases may be made as stock specific action would be seen and sectoral out performance especially in the defensives would continue. Overall, while protecting profits at each higher level, positive outlook is advised for the day.
