Technicals for week ending – 26th January 2018.

Note : This is not a recommendation and I am not a registered analyst, these are just data points and an assessment of the positives and negatives from a longer term point of view (6-12 months).

Nifty Weekly

Chart 1. For the short term, it looks a bit stretched with 2 consecutive weekly closes above the standard 20/2 Bollinger Bands. For more shorter-term risks, I am confident of drawing the support band near 10080-120 but that seems far off. For now, keeping an eye out on 10500 as short-term support. We are in all time high territory so basic logic and common sense says uptrend intact on longer time-frame. The index is still above its 40 week moving average and the slope of the average is also upwards.

Chart 2 Nifty total returns/10 year Bond index ratio is above its 40-week MA & momentum also favours Nifty index, indicating longer term outperformance for Nifty vs bonds.

Chart 3 Longer term intermarket strength as per the RS matrix is in IT & Realty. With Auto and  Pharma at the bottom.

Chart 4 All indices are above their 40-week MA.


Chart 5 Avg. & Median distance of all sectors from their 52-week closing high is at -2.2% & -1.3%.


Chart 6 FII flows in Index futures segment is back to positive AND clients back to old habits of shorting the rally !
