Nifty Rallies Beyond 7800 - Celebratory Mood in Market

Nifty will open with a gap up - that was my prognosis before markets opened today. That is exactly what Nifty did - opened with 70 points gap up.

My concern was that Nifty should maintain gap up prices during the entire day. Fortunately Nifty opened strongly and kept going from strength to strength.


Finally Nifty closed at 7850, gaining 141 points.

Before markets opened for trading, I had posted Urgent action is required to be taken today . I had given sell targets for three open buy positions of Apr Futures. These scrips achieved their respective targets today in trade. Details are given below :-

Tatapower : Bought at 64. Tgt given 69/70. Sold at 70. Lot size - 8000 
                     Profit = (70-64= 6) X 8000 = Rs 48,000/-

Jindalstel :   Bought at 62.5. Tgt given 70/71. Sold at 70. Lot size - 7000 
                     Profit = (70-62.5= 7.5) X 7000 = Rs 52,500/-

However given sell target of Rpower was missed by 5 paisa in trade today.. Rpower :Bought at 50. Tgt given 53/54. Day High 52.95 

Markets have closed on a very optimistic note. On Thursday and Friday markets are closed for Dr Baba Saheb Ambedkar Jayanti and Ram Navami respectively. So next trading session will be on next Monday ie 18 Apr 2016. Till then enjoy the profits and long weekend !!

Urgent Action Required in Trade on 13 Apr 2016

Overnight US markets ended very strongly up, gathering +165 points.

Taking cue from US markets, Asian markets are presently trading in green, SGX Nifty is also up by 57 points as of publishing this post.

This means we can safely expect Nifty to open with a gap up today..We only hope that  gap up opening in prices are sustained during the entire day.

Urgent Action Required to be Taken Today.
Following buy positions of Apr Futures need to be squared off today when markets open:-

  1. Tatapower. Bought at 64. Initial target given was 70. Sell today at 69/70.
  2. Jindalstel. Bought at 62.5. Initial target given was 72. Sell today at 70/71
  3. Rpower. Bought at 50. Initial target given was 54. Sell today at 53/54

Worried About Market? - Nifty Looks Good For 7800

Before Indian markets opened today, I had advised you to take urgent action to sell Indiacem April Futures position. Check out the post here.

Heeding my advice, one could sell Indiacem Apr Futures at 93. It  was bought at 87. That gave a profit of Rs 6.0 per share. One lot Indiacem Futures consists of 6000 shares.

Hence Profit made from one lot of Indicem Apr Fut = 6X6000 = Rs 36000/- 

Markets have been very quiet for better part of today. Hardly any directional movement worth the name was noticed in indices before 2PM. A sense of worry prevails amongst traders, what with US markets closing in negative in last session.

My view is that stocks are pausing after a stellar show in last session. I am saying so since Nifty looks good to touch 7800 in 2/3 days. 

Today Nifty closed at 7709, up by 37.5 points from yesterday's close. However the cause for our concern is that the banking sector did not rally in trade today. Let us hope tomorrow brings cheer to this sector.



Action Required to be Taken In Market Today

Indian markets spurred into action in the second half of last trading session. It was welcome relief to see green shoots sprouting out.

Let me first give the current status of 19 futures position that we are holding as per my recommendations in this post.

TATAPOWER Bought at 62.5, Closed at 67.85
JINDALSTEL : Bought at 64, Closed at 66.25
INDIACEM: Bought 87, Closed 92.35
RPOWER: Bought 50, Closed 51.6
IOB : Bought 30,Closed 30.75
ALBK: Bought 57,Closed 56.65
IDBI: Bought 71,Closed 68.05
PNB: Bought 87,Closed 83.55
SBI: Bought 195,Closed 189.1
UCOBANK: Bought 40,Closed 39.1
CANBK: Bought 194,Closed 188
KTKBANK: Bought 104,Closed 105.2
SYNDIBANK: Bought 67,Closed 68.65
BANKINDIA: Bought 98,Closed 93.15
ORIENTBANK: Bought 94,Closed 90

UNIONBANK: Bought 134,Closed 130.1
ANDHRABANK : Bought at 53, Closed at 53.45
HEXAWARE :  Bought at 268, Closed at 252.2
BANKBARODA : Bought at 150, Closed at 150

Action to be Taken Urgently Today in Trade
Indiacem Apr Futures was bought at 87 and the target given was 95 in this post. In last trading session Indiacem closed at 92.35 which means it is giving us substantial profit. Hence my recommendation is to square off this position at the opening price today.

Indian Markets Make Fascinating Bull Charge in Late Trade


Oh what a spectacular bull run in second half of trade! It was a secular bull charge, making almost every sector green in its wake.

Indian markets were flat to negative till 1 PM. And then, as if sparked by some tremendous news, got lifted magically. Nifty gained 116 points by close.

Not just Indian markets, Asian markets also got lifted and European markets are a sea of green as of now. Dow Jones Futures is indicating that US markets will open in firm green territory.

So what is cheering the entire global market so strongly? Dollar Index is slightly down, and Oil is slightly up as of publishing this post. I do not know of anything extraordinary that has happened or is expected to happen in global scenario which warrants this kind of bull run across all equity markets around the world.

If you know the reason of such positive action in markets, please feel free to share your thoughts with all of us. You can put your thoughts in the comments section of this post for the benefit of all of us. I will really appreciate that.
