Banks Buck Trend - Outshine Nifty Again

Banking sector was mercifully bullish in trade today, while Nifty was mildly volatile for better part of the day. Towards second half of session, Nifty drifted lower and finally closing at 7902, down 12 points.

Before markets opened, I gave a call for action in this post. Out of our 8 buy positions of Apr Futures held, 7 buy positions were listed in this post for selling, with modified targets.

Out of 7 buy positions recommended for selling, 4 scrips met their target in trade today. Let us calculate profit generated from these 4 Futures contracts.

Exit Strategy for April Futures - Action Station

Yesterday Nifty closed slightly in red at 7912 and Dow Jones in US closed deeply in red , down 113 points at 17982.

Global markets are not supportive. Asian markets are in red and SGX Nifty is down by 15 points, as of publishing this post. So Indian markets should open flat with a slight negative bias.

Worst case scenario for Nifty is that it can drift down to 7800. There Nifty should find support in today's trade.

However if Nifty opens with a Gap-up above 7950, then it will be a very positive signal. Nifty will keep moving higher in such scenario. Further, if Nifty closes above 8000 today, then we can safely assume that it is headed to 8300.

Green is Color of Day - Decisive Action In Markets Today

Yesterday Nifty closed absolutely flat at 7914 despite benign global markets and supportive oil situation.

Global markets are in fine fettle. Dow Jones closed 42 points higher at 18096. Oil is trading in green. Asian markets are also in green and SGX Nifty is up by 32 points. So Indian markets should open in green today.

In trade on Monday there was appearance of "Hanging Man" in Nifty chart. Hanging Man is a candlestick pattern which denotes bearish mood. Luckily in yesterday's trade, bearish angle of Hanging Man was negotiated by Nifty. This gives bullish slant to Indian markets.

Trading activities in today's session is going to be very crucial. Movement of Nifty in trade today will determine it's target.

If Nifty opens with a Gap-up above yesterday's high and maintains it's up-move throughout the session, then we will have a target for Nifty in range of 8300. If not, Nifty target could get restricted to 8000 level.

Hilarious Slip Up - Forgot Indian Markets are Closed Today

In my eagerness to give market updates to my audience before Indian markets opened for trading, I published a post forecasting market opening in green. Little did I realize that today is Mahavir Jayanti and Markets are closed!! That is called " Goof-up-Royale"

I have pulled out this ultra-hilarious and erroneous post from my blog site. Those who have got the link and are not able to open it, do not worry. It is deliberate action on my part to vacate the link and not some technical glitch.

Those who had opened the link while it was live on net, my apologies. But I guess those who could read the post while it was live would at least have had a good laugh. That is a good way to begin the day - isn't it?

Anyway, I will publish here some relevant portions from this snuffed- out post for your consumption. Here we go :-

Yesterday Nifty closed up by 64 points despite grim global situation precipitated by oil market crash. This I had predicted in my last post.

And if you have gone through my last post you would remember that though I had predicted oil plunging and global equity markets going down with it, I had categorically told you to buy Indian market on dip. My exact words before market opening were:  "SGX Nifty is down by about 30 points. So expect some weakness in Indian markets during early trades. Global factors notwithstanding, you should  be long on Indian markets on dips."

That is exactly what happened in trade yesterday. Nifty opened at 7908 and quickly fell down to 7843. Then slowly through the day it gained 64 points to close at 7915, near its day high of 7921.

Enjoy your holiday today and Happy Mahavir Jayanti !
