What Should Investors Do?

Markets are gradually drifting lower amid volatility and indications are pointing towards more pain ahead. Meanwhile, mixed global cues combined with earnings season would keep traders on the edge.

We thus reiterate our view to limit positions and prefer a hedged approach, especially for the overnight trades.

Technical Outlook

The Nifty, on Tuesday, witnessed a reversal of sentiments as the index gave up all the gains of the previous trading session ending the day on a negative note down 187 points. On the daily charts, we can observe that the Nifty has witnessed selling pressure from the 18140 – 18180 zone where resistance in the form of the 20 and 40-day moving averages are placed.

On the way down the crucial support, zone is at 17770 – 17800 where the 20-week moving average is placed. Thus, Nifty is witnessing volatile price action between these two parameters.

The daily momentum indicator has triggered a negative crossover however, it has not completed its pullback to the equilibrium line indicating that this consolidation is not complete, and the fall is unlikely to continue on the downside. Until we get a decisive close beyond the extremes of the range 17800 – 18300, the range bound action is likely to continue.
