Profit Booking Sees Nifty Slipping


Profit booking and winding up of positions saw the index slipping up in a slow and steady manner throughout the day. The real damage came in the second half of the trading session when the key support level of 5870 of Nifty futures was broken. The weekend pressure and the truncated next trading week because of two trading holidays saw both investors and traders reducing the exposure in the markets. Nifty now can slowly drop to its first strong support level of 5790-5800 and from there onwards the future course of action will be dictated by the first quarter results. Infosys comes out with its results on 15th and till then we are of the view that Nifty will be range bound between 5700 and 5900 with a slightly negative bias. Instead of buying and selling breakouts and breakdowns, one should make a strategy of buying supports and selling rallies. Lot of stock specific action will be seen as we now entering the quarterly results season. Since there will be a lot of volatility during this period we would very strongly advise to trade in lower volumes.

Nifty futures have strong support around 5808 and 5767 levels whereas it will face resistance at 5872 and 5899 levels.
