Outlook for Today: On Japanese candlestick patterns the index after
having
formed two consecutive doji patterns (indicating indecisiveness
amongst
market men) has formed a black body candle on higher volumes. This
indicates
that the bias has shifted towards the sell side of the market.
Further, the
index has dropped below its 5 day’s moving average. Moreover, the
velocity
parameters, which were positively trended, have now turned neutral.
All
these indicate a negative bias.
However, the index is above its 15, 25 and 200 day’s moving averages.
Investors are advised to hold long positions, but with a strict stop
loss at
the 15 day’s moving average at the 4879 points level.
Work with strict stop losses on all positions.
