On January 16, Nifty continued its choppiness and remained directionless. Last week, Nifty remained in the range of 18,141 and 17,761 and closed in the middle. Open and Close of the week remained almost same and therefore Nifty ended the weekly candlestick with “Doji” pattern, which indicates indecision or probable trend reversal.

This week is the fifth consecutive week, when Nifty did not violate the crucial support of 17,750-17,800. Nifty has formed multiple bottoms in this range and turned bullish in last session of the week. Formation of the “Doji” candlestick near the strong support could be the first sign of probable bullish trend reversal on the weekly chart.

However, Nifty has been finding resistance at 20-day EMA (exponential moving average), which is sloping downward and currently placed at 18,081. Nifty is still in formation of lower tops and lower bottoms on the daily chart. Any level above 18,265 would violate the bearish setup on the daily time frame for the Nifty. At present 55 percent of the NSE500 stocks are above their 200 DMA, which is a sign of strong breadth.

Technical setup of global equity market has turned bullish, which augers well for the Indian markets too. ICE Dollar Index, which has negative correlation with equity markets and gold has broken crucial support of 103. Falling Dollar Index also augers well for the world equity markets.

Indian markets have underperformed the Asian, European and US equity markets in last couple of weeks. Looking at the strong technical setup of global equity markets, Nifty could see catch up rally in the coming days.

We recommend traders to remain long in Nifty for the upside targets of 18,141 and 18,250, keeping 17,700 stop-loss.
