Resistance will be faced at all higher levels as the indices try to rally. More of less the indices are expected to trade at current levels as the quarterly earnings numbers keep coming out. For the Sensex watch support @ 18449 and for the Nifty @ 5541 levels. On the higher side Sensex has a resistance @ 18803 and the Nifty has it @ 5653 levels.

Major Resistance	19131 – 19811

Major Support	5610 – 5534 – 5441
Major Resistance	5740 – 5944

The markets close the week on an indecisive note with Doji / Spinning Top formation on candlestick charts. This close is on the falling trend line joining the recent tops. This also marks the importance of this level as a resistance as the markets get ready for the first quarter earning numbers which start coming in from this week. The developments will be closely tracked by all market players as they try to reaffirm the strength of the markets which have recently witnessed an approx 8% rally. The choppiness in the markets is set to rise and dull announcements would have a negative effect on the markets. At the current juncture for investors to get in aggressively they need to wait for a breakout above this trend line resistance. The highs and lows made by the indices last week would play an important role of trend deciders for the immediate short term. Sensex has a resistance @ 19131 and Nifty has it @ 5740 levels. On the lower side supports come in @ 18682 for the Sensex and 5610 for the Nifty. A move above or below these levels could help the indices move in that direction for this month. Stocks could see speculative interests coming in as their earning dates arrive. These stocks could prove to be a risky bet for investment but traders could see this as an opportunity. Wish you profitable week ahead…

The markets traded indecisive again for the third day in row. This is on account of the earnings season which starts from Friday. The indices are trading just below crucial resistance levels and the slightest of negative sentiment on part of the earnings numbers could play spoil sport.

Watch resistance @ 18823 for the Sensex and 5655 for the Nifty. On the lower side watch supports coming in @ 18682 and 5610 for the Sensex and the Nifty respectively.

The markets bounced back on short covering as the June contracts expired. At current levels the markets are trading just below resistance coming in from a falling trend line joining the recent tops. The strength in the markets can be prominently observed for now. This is despite of all the negative news flow on the domestic as well as the global front. We have had scams, rising inflation, fuel price hike and rising interest rates to name a few. After all this the markets have managed to stay afloat. They have held their supports very well till now. This is something which market players should not forget. Now until and unless something drastically wrong happens we should not be expecting the markets to crack in a big way. All said and done this strength is also not enough for the markets to rally in a big way. The markets now need some positive developments on the policy front and the least on the numbers announced by the companies. The first quarter earnings season will start in the coming week. If these numbers happen to be good then that could prove to be a booster for the markets. For the Sensex watch supports @ 18447 – 18132 and for the Nifty @ 5534 – 5441 levels. Above these levels the indices are expected to hold positive. Resistance from the falling trend line comes in @ 19200 for the Sensex and 5750 for the Nifty. It is time for us to get ready for some action. In our careers we learn first and earn later, in the same way in the stock markets we need to be prepared for the opportunities which may come up any time. Opportunities are plenty if you stay in the stock markets for life. If you look at the stock markets with a come and go approach then it is not meant for you and neither would you be doing justice to your hard earned money. On that note let’s hold a scrip specific view and be watchful of all the opportunities that come our way…
