NIFTY 
    
CLOSE- 9934.80 (08.09.17)

 
Markets, particularly large cap index (Nifty/Sensex & Bank nifty) have been consolidating in narrow range since past 4-5 weeks. It still looks like bullish triangular consolidation on daily chart as written earlier in my weekly update as well. One can expect higher levels targets as mentioned below in short term till it reverses. It looks like one more leg on upside for this rally is pending started from around Dec-2016 from wave count perspectives as per weekly chart of these large cap index. One should buy stock specific till trend reverses.
 

More From This Section

I have seen from earlier experience that till Dow Theory supports holds, one should ride such bill market structure of rally. Because in such kind of liquidity driven rally sometimes stretch further more than expected in short term ahead of fundamental as well before we get one meaningful price wise correction. And we may get such kind of time wise correction or consolidation before final TOP established & final short term targets achieves. Therefore, it’s better to Ride it till it finally reverses in short term.
 
Short-term outlook for the market remains positive till Nifty trades above 9,685 levels and expecting target of 10,300-10,500 levels in short term. Medium term outlook for the market remains positive till Nifty trades above 8,968 levels and is expecting targets in the range of 12,000-12,200 levels in medium term.
 
Broader Market looks started it wave-V of 3 as per monthly chart. I feel it will continue to outperform in this rally in short term. It may create Euphoric phase & sharp rally  particularity midcap & Small cap stocks in short term & Large cap index will catch up it once it breaks out of this narrow range in short term.
 
Nifty Bank also closed weekly in negative territory. It’s also consolidating in narrow range in short term. It also still looks like one more leg on upside is still pending on bank nifty for short term till it reverses. 23,800 looks strong support for Bank nifty in short term till it holds one can expect higher levels targets till 25,300 levels in short term & 26,500-26,900 levels in medium term.
  
9,700/10,000 looks strong support & Resistance levels respectively based on option open interest data for short term. Break of this range at either of side will lead to sharp trend in short term.
  
Momentum indicators Daily KST & daily MACD both are in buy supporting short term trend one should be stock specific & follow the trend with trail stop loss levels till it reverses from trading perspectives. Close below short term reversal levels will lead to possible sharp price wise correction till 9,500/9,480 levels on Nifty & 30,900/30,680 levels on Sensex in short term.
