Nifty : 21738
Technical Outlook
Day that was…
Equity benchmarks started the week on a buoyant note tracking firm Asian cues. Nifty zoomed 385 points to settle the session at 21738, up 1.8%. The market breadth turned positive with A/D ratio of 1.5:1 broader market performed in tandem with the benchmark. Sectorally, barring FMCG all other indices ended in green led by oil & gas, financials, auto
Technical Outlook
• The index witnessed a gap up opening and gradually inched northward as the day progressed lead by index heavy weight. As a result, daily price action resulted into bullish belt hold line candle carrying strong bull candle carrying higher high-low. Consequently, index logged a breakout from the eight session’s falling trend line, indicating resumption of upward momentum
• We expect Nifty to resolve higher and gradually challenge the All Time High of 22124 in coming weeks. In the process, volatility to remain high owing to Union Budget, US Fed meet and earnings progression. Structurally, with past two week’s 4.5% correction, index is entering budget week on a lighter note. Thus, accumulating quality stocks on dips would be the fruitful strategy to adopt. Our positive bias is further validated by following observations:
• A) Bank Nifty has approached key support threshold of 200 days EMA amid oversold conditions, indicating impending pullback which would fuel the pullback rally in Nifty (as Bank Nifty carries 35% weightage in Nifty)
• B) The rejuvenation of upward momentum in global market signifies firm global cues that would provide impetus to domestic market
• The formation of lower high-low on the weekly chart signifies pause in upward momentum that would makes us revise support base at 20800 as its is confluence of: A. Price parity of last leg of decline 22124-21285 projected from Tuesday’s high of 21750 B. 38.2% retracement of past two months up move 18838- 22124

• Over past two session index has posed 2 . 7 % pull back, which is similar to earlier two instances in ongoing corrective phase . Strength above Mondays high (45660 ) would make current pullback larger in magnitude and would indicate further rally towards last week high of 46500 that also coincides with 50 % retracement of past one month decline (48636 -44429 )
