OUTLOOK
Today morning Asian markets are trading flat to modestly higher and SGX Nifty is suggesting a flattish start for our market.
For past couple of sessions we had been mentioning that 34 DMA placed around 7540 was the immediate support below which Nifty can plunged all the way to 7441, the low made on 23rd June, which is also the immediate previous bottom on the weekly char.
Nifty on Friday plunged all the way to 7447 before closing at 7460, nearly achieving the 7441 target and vindicating our view.
7441 continues to be important support, a breach of which would break the higher-top higher-bottom formation on the weekly chart. The nearest support upon happening that would come around 7200 where the trendline adjoining bottoms made in February and May is placed.
Immediate resistance on the hourly chart is placed around 7630, a crossover of which is required to generate a buy signal on the hourly chart.
Traders are advised to wait for the breach of 7441 for taking fresh shorts and long positions should be taken only upon the crossover of 7630.
India's CPI for June will be released today and is expected to ease to 7.45% from 8.28% in May. WPI for June too would be released today and is expected to ease to 5.61% from 6.01% in May.
