The last three days made gains, but amidst increasing volatility.
Even today there was a strong tug to the down post 1 pm, and again a pullback helped the Nifty close with gains.
On a day on day basis while the Nifty has made gains every day of the week, today's session leaves me with some confusion.
Did the Nifty really show strength during the session?
From my perspective, while the intensity of the potential threat weakens after todays session, however if seeds of weakness are sown today they may germinate going ahead.
The above is from the morning post, and the context is limited to my recent remark pertaining to a strong move expected these last three days.
The converse of this is, if seeds of strength were sown today they would germinate soon.
So the issue is whether we had a strong or a weak close today.
As for strength, the Nifty couldn't hold above 3669 where the real test of strength was to come.
See the morning post where a clear run to this level was mentioned.
In several attempts this was not held. The Nifty couldn't quite wade into the density above this mark.
Strength and weakness are realtive, then.
In the area of challenge the Nifty didn't quite hold up.
So this is relative weakness.
But as for weakness, one can under no circumstances call the day's action weak.
This is the reason for saying there's a degree of confusion in me about the action today, and will return with this Monday morning
As for a week on week close, there's nothing other than strength, of course.
Have a nice one all.
