The markets opened with a gap down opening and traded the day sideways in a narrow range. The day saw the markets swinging up and down to finally close indecisive with a doji formation on candlestick charts. For the day expect the markets to rebound if they open with a gap down again. Wait for the first 15 minutes to trade so as to judge the direction of the move. If the markets open with a gap up opening then they would face selling pressure. As of levels watch resistance for the Sensex @ 18005 and for the Nifty @ 5422 levels. On the lower side supports should be seen @ 17859 for the Sensex and 5378 for the Nifty. Hold a low profile for the day…

The RBI policy breaks the momentum in the markets. To add to it the Lokayut report on illegal mining in Karnataka leads to players getting cautious about a few companies being named which lead to further selling in the markets. All in all the last week was a bad time for the markets. Technically this sell off came in when the markets were trying to breach past the resistance from the falling trend line joining all the recent tops from November 2010. It is almost 9 months that the indices have not moved much. They continue to trade in a range of 10%. The indecisiveness is clear with the markets making lower tops and higher bottoms in the last 7 months. This time the direction of the markets is expected to be decided when the indices reach the earlier bottoms. If they breach the earlier lows then that would mean weakness and bears gripping the markets. For the markets to get into a strong hold of bulls they need to break past the trend line resistance which now has gained a lot of importance with the current formation. As of Technical levels watch resistance for the Sensex @ 18475 and for the Nifty @ 5557 levels. Below this the indices would remain under pressure and try and test supports @ 17314 for the Sensex and 5195 for the Nifty. Individual scrips will continue to shine and therefore it is advisable that investors hold a scrip specific view…
