The markets started off on a steady note finally to give way to the statements coming out from the RBI. As the governor announced a hike in the interest rate the markets saw them selling off in a big way. The indices today have sold off from the important resistance coming in from the falling trendline. This also marks the formation of good resistance and in the future it will play an important role whenever the markets try to rally. The sell off could bring in further indecisiveness in the markets atleast for the week going ahead. Some good announcements from scam struck Indian government are a must to bring some cheer. As of levels the Sensex has a resistance @ 18708 and Nifty has it @ 5631 levels. On the lower side supports should be seen coming in @ 18481 – 18415 for the Sensex and 5560 – 5532 for the Nifty. Scrip specific action will continue in the markets. Investors should wait for some nice formations on charts.

The indices rallied in the late hours on Tuesday. Most of the trade was due to short covering lead by traders running in to cover their positions. The positions are mostly driven by the numbers announced by the companies as of now. Traders playing it blind without discipline tend to get trapped on such occasions making the markets swing. This is a good opportunity for traders who trade based on logic. Some results to watched tomorrow which could also see action in the price of stocks are Petronet LNG, Polaris, Dish TV, LIC Hsg, Bharati Ship, Rel Ind Infra, Dr Reddy. As for the indices watch resistance @ 18690 for the Sensex and 5627 for the Nifty. On the lower side watch supports @ 18521 for the Sensex and 5569 for the Nifty. Hold a scrip specific view…

NSE Nifty	5567.05

The indices formed a spinning top formation on day end closing basis. This candlestick pattern symbolizes indecisive mood on account of market players. Tomorrow one of the results to be watched is Wipro and that is one announcement which could make the markets move. For tomorrow one needs to watch the highs and lows created on Monday as trend decider levels. Resistance and upward trend decider level should be watched @ 18622 for the Sensex and 5596 for the Nifty. On the lower side support and downward trend decider level should be watched @ 18469 for the Sensex and 5550 for the Nifty. With the uncertainty of the markets it is better for the investor to hold lower strike put options in Nifty which would be available cheap. This would also act as a hedge against the stocks held in the portfolios. For now hold a scrip specific view.

The markets traded indecisive throughout the week with two side movement. This was mainly due to the quarterly earnings which were being declared. From November 2010 it is the first time that we have seen the indices manage to make higher bottom and now it is to be seen whether they are able to make a higher top. This is an observation on weekly charts. A lower bottom could be a weak sign for the markets. These levels which one can watch with a medium term view are 5944 on the higher side and 5195 on the lower side for the Nifty. Watch these levels with a 3 month view. As for the immediate short term the indices face a resistance as they try to move up from current levels. This comes in from a falling trend line which exists @ 5740 for the Nifty and 19131 for the Sensex. So all upsides during this results month are expected to be caught at this trend line. For the current week supports and resistances which one needs to watch are the highs and lows made by the indices last week. These levels are 18936 for the Sensex and 5653 for the Nifty on the higher side. And on the lower side supports to be watched are @ 5496 for the Nifty and 18326 for the Sensex. The markets are expected to trade more or less near these levels. Scrips are expected to move as per the way players understand the numbers announced. Choppiness will remain high and intraday moves will be dictated by the positions in which traders are stuck.
