A short covering rally was fuelled by current day shorts and some shorts from yesterday covering short positions quickly. On the immediate scale we are watching 8464 spot above tomorrow which is a catalyst for a further rise to 8556. We feel the seller may re- enter at around 8550- 8580 spot levels when we get there.
In the Paras below you will find my daily plan for the day at the bottom with weekly support and resistance levels updated on the spot and the medium term auction. It’s a view on 3 different timeframes. Auction Market Theory tells us where to trade. The Order Flow will show us when to trade.
Nifty APR F
|
Background / Previous Auctions :
Medium Term: On Friday May 16th 2014, we saw a range of 7560- 7125 (spot prices) and we believe it forms the backdrop of the moves we may see in the Nifty for a considerable amount of time, as it was a 5 sigma event. The auction remains positive as long as we close above the highs of that day (May16).There was a failed auction noted at the lows on 17/10 at 7723 which is a reference point and support line for the future. At 9119 the market may have put in a top for the year and should roughly consolidate in the 8200- 9119 zone for the rest of this year.
Weekly levels : (first updated 19/04) review :
(On spot prices)
Last week the expected move to price objective of 8912 fell short by 67 points as supply came at the 8850 mark in a market which rallied for 11 sessions holding VAH and an MO of 80 plus. Something had to give and the sellers forced the late longs off the table quickly.
For the coming week we will find the Nifty trading close to the 8560-8580 support band early in the week but at risk of more longs being pushed out on rallies to 8685 spot.
Trading below the 8685 spot mark this week should point to new supply coming into the index . The sellers should maintain control till 8735 spot is not taken out convincingly and on closing basis.
. An upmove during the week which meets new sellers at 8685 spot should point to 8342-8321 spot as the final objective of the move these next few sessions with stops on a closing above 8740 spot.
(Update 22/04)
The down move hit the 8321 spot objective today and dipped to 8284 spot > However buying came back above 8324 spot and drove the index higher into the close. Our ref line for the next auction sits at 8542- 8556 spot where we watch OrderFlow for more cues .

Hypothesis :
( Based on Apr Futures)
K.R.A is 8484 ( K.R.A= key reference area)
Hypo1) If NF auctions above 8485 then longs should move it to 8508 F and possibly 8560 above 8510 . Sl for this view is 8434.
Hypo2) If NF auctions below 8424 then it should move to 8370 . Sl for this view is 8485.

(based on spot prices)
Last week the fast move below 18800 on that failed upper move brought pressure on recent longs to close positions and the BN went below second support mentioned for the week at 18598 quickly.
For the current week there is more evidence of supply building up at 18724 and 18810 . We can see all up moves to these points in the coming week meeting up more supply.
Support for the index is at 18232 and at 18131 right below it. If 18800 is not taken out on closing basis the destination trade in the coming sessions is at 17900 spot.
(Update 22/04)
The destination trade in BN spot at 18900 was hit in today’s session and just like the Nifty the BN also went down below to check for interest. The bounce off 17900 is good but it is one we believe will run into early trouble at 18345 and 18470 if that is crossed. We maintain 18345- 18470 as a supply point where the seller may attempt to come back

Hypothesis :
( Based on Futures)
K.R.A is 18365 ( K.R.A= key reference area)
Hypo1) IF BNF auctions below 18305 then it should move to 18192 and 18075. Sl for this view is 18370
Hypo 2) If BNF auctions above 18355 then it should move to 18440 and 18550 Sl for this view is 18229 |
