morning update at 8 am 08 oct 09
last night dow closed absolutely flat at just 5 points in negative although nasdaq & s&p500 had minor gains. European markets which had closed when dow was trading 50 points in the red, generally closed in the red with uk ftse down by .6%. Brazil closed absolutely flat. Asian markets have opened milder and may continue with their yesterdays gains to be +ve for thursday.
If one sees the indian markets this week and compares with other world markets, one will notice that indian markets have been the worst performers this week. After last weeks closing at 5083, nifty has already lost around 2% on a closing basis till wednesdays close of 4985.actually this correction is a welcome pause for further up move and investors should take advantage of any further decline to add longs.
For intraday trading on thursday, since the markets had closed around the lowest point of the day on wednesday, there is every possibility of substantial recovery. So one can expect the low of wednesday at 4973 to provide strong support to nifty. Only a breach of 4970 can bring down nifty to next support around 4952 a breach of which can take it down to 4925 levels from where solid buying may be expected. As the indicators in the intraday time frames look oversold, there is every possibility of rise in nifty from the start itself after a minor fear generating decline. Similarly on the higher side 5005 may be the initial resistance followed by 5016 to 5020. In case 5020 is decisively breached then there is every possibility of nifty rising to the next resistance of 5040 where it meets a tsunami of par-sars. As long as nse index does not decisively cross 5077 and sustains above it, chances of crossing 5100 to move towards 5200 may remain a distant dream for nifty.
Incase of a further decline of markets after the open, traders may boldly write (short) 4800 puts and buy 5000 calls and hold these for next week. Mining and metal stocks still have a lot of energy to move up further. Accumulate tech, metals, infra & oil & gas exploration & brokerage stocks on every decline for very good gains next week.
