Extreme volatility on Ayodhya case verdict day


Today(30-9-10), the day of Ayodhya case verdict, Nifty exhibited high volatility till the closing time. Nifty opened at 5985 with a loss of 6 points, moved in the range 5964 - 6004 mostly in the negative territory up to 2.30 p.m., speedy & powerful up move of 84 points thereafter which catapulted Nifty to 6048 and closing at 6030 (same as day before yesterday)with a gain of 39 points. Nifty high was in between Agni level(6040)and Surya level(6052). Nifty futures range was 5963 -> 6035, having a difference of 72 points which is exactly divisible by 8. What caused such a strong up move after 2.30 p.m. today? The answers may be many such as
1. Writers of Nifty 6000 put which was heavy in volume wanted to save their position.
2. FIIs and Mutual Funds wanted to report a good NAV at the close of this quarter.
3. Traders who had shorted was forced to cover their positions.
4. Positions of European markets started to improve.
5. Exceptional Friday effect advanced for one day to lift the index?
6. FIIs/DIIs didn't mind the Ayodhya case verdict.
What ever may be the reasons, it was really impressive, even though not unexpected.
Waiting for tomorrow to see whether Exceptional Friday effect is there or not. Tomorrow's Agni level is at 6037.

On Friday(24-9-10)Nifty opened at 5951 with a loss of 5 points,quickly moved to positive zone and stayed in the range 5967 - 5988 up to 12.00, moved upward to 6029 and closed at 6018 with a gain of 62 points. Nifty futures range was 5961 -> 6044. As Nifty didn't decline below the centre of P(5952)and closed above that level on Friday, Nifty may move to top of P(6154) in coming days. Nifty moving above that level and entering D1(Sudha Daivatham; Low : 6154, centre: 6355 {Nifty all time high}& Top: 6526)before Deepavali cannot be ruled out. Since Nifty P/E is @ 25.41 ordinary retail investors may please avoid fresh buying. Agni level for Monday is at 6048 and Nifty may move above that level.

Nifty futures moved in 6-10 points premium up to 15.05, discount of 1-2 points for 15 minutes and again in premium before closing(indecision among traders?

Nifty closes below Agni level after 12 days


Today(16-9-10)Nifty opened at 5844 with a loss of 17 points, stayed in the range 5841 - 5874 till RBI mid-term policy announcement, moved down to 5820, surged to 5902(Agni level for the day was 5897), declined to 5816 and closed at 5829 with a loss of 32 points. Nifty futures range was 5826 - 5916, having a difference of 90 points. As seen above, Nifty was highly volatile today.

Agni level was 5412 on 30th August and it is 5897 today. Between these days Nifty surged from 5349 to 5902, and the force was more than the surge for 16 days during 3rd (4538) to 25th November, 2009 (5138). Nifty may further move to centre of P (5952) or decline from here (since now it is in Ni,Sa,Ri area). Tomorrow's Agni level is at 5942.

Nifty closes in P ( Panchamam)


Today(15-9-10)Nifty opened at 5792 with a loss of 4 points, moved up to 5869 and closed at 5861 with a gain of 65 points. Nifty moved to red - just 4 points at start. Nifty futures range was 5811 - 5875, having a difference of 64 points. Today also Nifty futures opened in discount and closed in premium. If Nifty stays in the Panchamam range for a couple of days, logically it should move to centre of P (5952). But then PE of Nifty will be above 25 which is very difficult to comprehend now. Tomorrow's Agni level is at 5897.

Nifty closes at the top of M2(5797)


Today(14-9-10) Nifty opened at 5782 with a gain of 22 points, moved down to 5767, moved up to 5838, swiftly declined and moved in the range 5775 - 5813 and closed at 5796 with a gain of 36 points. Nifty futures range was 5758 - 5845. Similar to yesterday Nifty futures opened with 8 points discount and closed with 20 points premium. As Nifty close today is at the top of M2(5797), whether it will move to P(Panchamam; Bottom : 5797, Centre: 5952 and Top: 6154)will be known during this week. It is likely that Nifty may open positive and go to red tomorrow. Agni level for tomorrow is at 5811.

Nifty closes above Agni level (without declining)


Today (13-9-10)Nifty opened at 5709 with a gain of 69 points, moved steadily up to 5771 and closed at 5760 with a gain of 120 points. Nifty close is the highest after 18th January 2008 and PE is @ 24.32 which is beyond expectation. Nifty futures started with a discount of 30 points and ended with a premium of 6 points - 36 points upward move, definitely due to short covering. Nifty futures range was 5672 - 5777, having a difference of 105 points. Normally, when Agni level is above the Nifty, Nifty moves down dragging the Agni level and within a couple of days Agni level is pushed below the Nifty. But, this time Nifty moved up fast and took position above Agni level, which is a very rare event. Tomorrow Nifty may move to high of M2(5797) and Agni level is at 5753.

Nifty closes at the centre of M2(5642)


On Thursday(9-9-10) Nifty opened at 5632 with a gain of 24 points, came down to 5615, moved up to 5642(exact centre of M2)as expected, came down again to 5608, moved up again to 5647 and closed at 5640 with a gain of 32 points, at the centre of M2(perfect close). From here Nifty can move up or down which will be known during this week. Nifty futures (50) shown a high of 5711 at the opening itself and that may perhaps be the Nifty futures target for Monday. Nifty Mini(20) futures high and low was 5644 and 5598 respectively. Last two days' Nifty high was less than the Agni level. So, tomorrow also Nifty high may be limited to the Agni level ie. 5698. Though below Agni level, Nifty is moving up which is seen one or two occasions earlier. Nifty PE on last Thursday (9th Sept) is @23.73. Be cautious during this week.

Centre of M2(5642) is yet to be reached.


Today(8-9-10)also Nifty high was 5625 and centre of M2(5642)is yet to be reached. Nifty futures range was 5566 - 5624, high 11 points more than yesterday. In spot, instead of single "SA" yesterday it was 4 "SA" today. So, expect one more attempt tomorrow. Tomorrow's Agni level is at 5649.

Nifty reaches centre of M2 in daily scale


The following comment was made last month, just before ONAM festival:
"Today(19-8-10)Nifty opened at 5506 with a gain of 27 points, declined a bit to 5495, moved up to 5545 and closed at 5540 with a gain of 61 points in M2(Prati Madhyamam - Low, Centre & High are 5464, 5642 & 5797 respectively). Though a move to the centre of M2(5642) is logical, other figures are not supporting for such a move now." Today(7-9-10)Nifty reached the centre of M2 in daily scale when it reached 5626. To reach centre of M2 in yearly scale Nifty has to move to 5642 ie. just 16 points up. If global cues favors Nifty may reach that level tomorrow, otherwise today's high has to be treated as the centre of M2. Nifty futures range today was 5572 - 5613. Tomorrow's Agni level is at 5616. Nifty is likely to close below that level unless Nifty moves up again tomorrow to reach centre of M2(5642). Not repeating to exit longs when Nifty closes below Agni level as it is known to you.

On Friday(3-9-10)Nifty opened at 5510 with a gain of 24 points, moved in the narrow range 5474 - 5495 and closed at 5479 with a loss of 7 points. Nifty futures range was 5471 - 5500.
Next Amavasi(no Moon day)is on 8th and change in planetary positions from 9th only ( see table below). Hence range bound movement( 5400 - 5600) up to next Wednesday and decline thereafter expected. Do not trade in anticipation, trade according to Agni level only. Tomorrow's Agni level is at 5486.
