NIFTY      
CLOSE- 10,772.65 (06.07.2018)

The market closed at the upper end of the range near the breakout levels at the end of the weekly trading session. It closed weekly in positive territory. It made a high of 10,816.40 levels & 35,799.71 levels during the week. Its still consolidating in the broad range of 10,400-10,900 levels from past one & half month. Break of these ranges will only lead to a strong trend in the market for higher levels targets as mentioned below in short to medium term.

It looks like wave-II of 5 of consolidation. If we have completed FLAT correction then, we can see high probability to break this range on the upside in coming weeks. Failing to break this range on the upside in coming trading session will open up a possibility of a triangular formation & we may further re-test lower end of range before final wave-III of 5 begins.

The short-term outlook for the market remains positive till Nifty trades above 10,417 levels and expecting targets in the range of 10,900-11,000 levels in short-term. Medium term outlook for the market remains positive till Nifty trades above 8,968 levels and expecting targets in the range of 12,000-12,200 levels in the medium term.

It still looks like wave-II of (5) consolidation phase on main indices Nifty/Sensex as per chart attached. There is a strong divergence between Nifty/Sensex main indices & Broader Market in short-term from the last couple of months. And we have seen a sharp sell-off, particularly in the broader market in near term. I feel this divergence is going to end soon, once we break out of this short-term range on main indices. And we will see a strong rebound in the broader market. This correction is an opportunity to BUY quality beaten down stocks of midcap & small cap index from medium to long-term perspectives. All these broader market indices such as midcap & small cap are trading at very crucial support zone as per chart attached.

BANK NIFTY closed weekly in positive territory. Its consolidating in a narrow range between 27,000-25,550 levels in near term. 25,550 level is strong support for bank nifty for short term, till it holds one can expect higher levels targets till 27,700 levels in short-term & further above 29,600-30,000 levels in the medium term. Any kind of decline is also buying opportunity for bank nifty for short to medium term perspectives. 

10,600 & 11,000 levels are strong support & resistance levels based on option open interest data for current month series expiry perspectives. By looking at current structure, I feel the market is going to surpass all time high soon on main indices & this rally will have time wise consolidation rather than price wise correction in short term. Any kind of such short-term correction or consolidation is buying opportunity for medium to long-term Investment perspectives till medium term reverses.

Momentum indicators Daily KST & DAILY MACD both are in BUY supporting the short-term trend. One should be stock specific & follow the trend with trail stop loss levels till it reverses. Close below short-term reversal levels will lead to sharp correction till 10,300-10,200 levels on nifty & 33,600 levels on Sensex in short term.
