Nifty : 19443
Technical Outlook
• The index consolidated in a narrow range after initial decline. As a result, daily price action formed a bear candle carrying lower high-low, indicating breather after past two weeks up move. Nevertheless, Nifty small cap index endured its northbound journey and clocked a fresh All Time High, highlighting relative strength
• The cool off in US Dollar index and US 10 year yield amid softer US inflation reading bolstered the risk on sentiment. We expect, index to accelerate upward momentum and eventually challenge the milestone of 19700 in coming weeks as it is 61.8% retracement of Sep-Oct decline (20222-18838). In the process, stock specific action would prevail as we approach the fag end of the earning season coupled with global volatility. Hence, buy on dips would be the prudent strategy to adopt as strong support is placed at 19200. Our positive bias is further validated by following observations:
• A) The improvement of market breadth signifies broader market participation
• B) The breach of October low in Brent crude oil would provide impetus to equity market
• C) The drop in dollar index along with cool off in global yields would provide impetus for acceleration of up move
• The formation of higher low signifies supportive efforts at elevated support base that makes us revise the support base upward at 19200 as it is 50% retracement of past two weeks rally (18838-19464)
