NIFTY
CLOSE- 8683.15 (05.08.16)


Market managed to hold short term support levels near recent lows & sharply bounced back from these levels. It made a low of 8518 levels on nifty & 27,627.97 levels on sensex. It also closed weekly in positive territory at the end of weekly trading session. It turned out to be ending diagonal pattern as per hourly chart of nifty indicating possibility of short term trend reversal. One can expect market to trend towards higher levels targets in short to medium term as mentioned below till trend reverses.

Market is not making any major correction in short term. It’s consolidating & starts further rally for higher levels targets. It’s difficult for traders to capture short term view in such kind of overall trending market. I would advices as mentioned many times in my outlook that any kind of short term correction or consolidation can be used as buying opportunity to participate in this rally for higher levels targets in medium term.
 
Short term outlook for the market remains positive nifty trades above 8476 levels & expecting targets in the range of 8800-8850 levels in short term. Medium term outlook for the market remains positive till nifty trades above 7927 levels & expecting targets in the range of 9120-9400 levels in medium term.

Bank nifty also managed to hold lower end support as expected. It made a low of 18,526 levels & started to rally from these levels. It closed near crucial resistance of 20,000 levels. Sustain above these levels will open higher levels targets towards all time higher levels of 20,700-20,900 levels in short to medium term from wave count perspectives.

Momentum indicators Daily KST & DAILY MACD both are in sell showing weakness may create volatility in short term. 8500/9000 levels looks strong supports & resistance levels respectively based on derivative option open interest data for this month series at current levels of market. One should buy stock specific & follow trend till it reverses in short term.
