Nifty closes below 5700 with a loss of 56 points


On Tuesday(25-1-11) Nifty opened at 5773 with a gain of 30 points, moved to 5802 on announcement of 0.25% repo/reverse repo rate hike by RBI, declined to 5681 and closed at 5687 with a loss of 56 points. Though repo rate hike was on expected lines, further steps to fight inflation was not disclosed. Being F&O settlement day, high volatility can be expected tomorrow also. Tomorrow's Agni level is at 5722.

High volatility expected on 25th & 27th


Today(24-1-11) Nifty opened at 5725 with a gain of 28 points, moved down to 5698, moved up to 5756 and closed at 5743 with a gain of 46 points. Nifty futures range was 5695 - 5760.

Volatile week ahead


Last Friday(21-1-11) Nifty opened at 5687 with a loss of 25 points, moved in the range 5675 - 5718 and closed at 5697 with a loss of 15 points. Tomorrow's Agni level is 5711.

Last week Nifty was in a lull mood and Friday(14th) to Friday(21st) closing can be summarised as 5700 plus or minus 40. As tomorrow's Agni level is at 5711 go short if Nifty moves down that level. Go long if Nifty moves above 5756. As it's a F & O settlement week and RBI's credit review is also due Nifty may be highly volatile.

Highest volatility on Makara Sankranti Day


Friday(14-1-11) was "Makara Sankranti" ie. the day Sun transits to Makara Rasi (Capricorn constellation - Sun @ 270°),one of the most auspicious day in India. "Makara Vilakku" is the most important festival in Sabari Mala temple in Kerala. On that day Nifty exhibited highest volatility ie. 221 points difference between high and low of Nifty futures, never seen in 2010. Nifty opened at 5732 with a loss of 20 points, moved down to 5695, moved up to 5834 (plus 82 points), swiftly moved down to 5640(loss of 194 points from the top of the day) and closed at 5655 with a loss of 97 points on averaging. The low was the centre of M2(5642) which was the level given in yesterday's post. Nifty futures range was 5638 - 5859. Agni level for Monday is at 5656.

Now everybody would be eager to know what next. As Nifty's closing on Friday was at the centre of M2 and also at the Agni level, nothing can be said in advance about the movement of Nifty on Monday. Watch it and move along with it. However, if Nifty moves downwards in coming days next level is 5464 ie. low of M2.
Planetary positions as on Monday, the 17th January 2011 is given below.

Nifty back to M2


Today(13-1-11)Nifty opened at 5831 with a loss of 32 points, moved in the range 5810 - 5858 up to 12.00, moved down to 5744 and closed at 5752 with a loss of 111 points. Nifty futures range was 5736 - 5869, having a difference of 133 points. Nifty closing so far this year after SuryaGrahan (Solar Eclipse)on 4th January 2011, is given in the chart below. Nifty movements are sluggish during these days. Instead of improving yesterday's positive closing, Nifty discarded the gains made and closed in M2 again. During the last three days, there was huge difference between Nifty opening and Agni level and it was reduced by Nifty's down move. Ideal condition for a buy or sell in Nifty futures is plus or minus 20 points from Agni level. As such huge difference between is really confusing. That is why it was advised yesterday to follow Day Trading Manthra for a buy. Nifty may decline to centre of M2(5642)in coming days. Tomorrow's Agni level is 5646.

RAHU-KETU in Indian astrology

"News:- Surya Grahan 2011: New Year Starts with Solar Eclipse Today
Surya Grahan 2011 - The New Year starts with a partial Solar eclipse that can be watched today, the 4th January, 2011 from the northern part of the country besides Europe, the Arabian peninsula, North Africa and Western Asia.

Retired Professor of the Indian Institute of Astro Physics, R C Kapoor said, the partial Solar eclipse will starts in at 12.10 pm and end at 4.30 pm on January, 2011.

Mr Kapoor said, in India, the eastern fringe of the penumbral shadow of the Moon passes over Kutch, parts of Gujarat, Rajasthan, Haryana, UP, Delhi, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir. In Delhi, the eclipse will begin at 3.11 pm and will end at 3:52 pm."

As per mythological stories, Solar Eclipse happens when Rahu swallows Sun. As Rahu has "head only" eclipse ends when Sun comes out through throat part.

According to legend,(retold in many puranas)the demon by name Swarbhanu stealthily got into the midst of gods and had a share of nectar which was capable of making the eater immortal. This was found out by the Sun and the Moon who brought it to the notice of Vishnu. Vishnu cut the head of the demon as an act of reprimand,which however resulted in the head becoming Rahu (the head with the body of the snake)and the body becoming Ketu (the body with the snake’s head).

This is how the birth of Rahu and Ketu is explained in scriptures.

What is really Rahu - Ketu ?
Take a bucket full of water and consider the level of water as the plane where the Earth circles around the Sun. Take a dinner plate and mark the centre of it as Earth - circular edge is the orbit of the Moon and the surface of the plate is the plane Moon circles around the Earth. Now dip the plate in to the water in a slight inclined position (23°) till the centre of the plate touches water level. Mark the two points where edge of the plate touches water level; these two points are Rahu - Ketu described in Indian astrology. Eclipses can happen only when Moon is at any one of that two points and it is a Solar Eclipse on a new-moon day and Lunar Eclipse on a full moon day . You can visualise that Rahu - Ketu will be always in 180° when viewed from the Earth and both(Rahu-Ketu) cannot be liberated. That's why it is considered as "one" in above stories. Indian Rishi's had great knowledge of the things happening in the universe. And it was acquired by observation only - with out any advanced instruments of the modern world.

Waiting for the first trading day of the New Year 2011

Verily, you were waiting for the views on the first trading day of the New Year 2011. Many technical analysts has already given their predictions and fantastic stories. Nandi's advice for the new year is "Never trade on stories, trade on figures". Stories can be very beautiful and it creates hope. But hopes, most of the time never materialises in the market. Nandi compares the movement of stock market similar to a journey in a small boat. When ever majority leans on one side, boat capsizes and journey takes unexpected turns. For journey to be smooth travelers should take their position equally on both sides. So, when ever there is significant imbalance keep away from majority.

Agni level for Monday, the first trading day of the year is at 6135 which is the closing figure of 2010. Hence, cues for Monday should come from Asian markets. So waiting for tomorrow with a clean slate. As Moon conjuncts with Mars on 5th a minor down move can be expected. Nothing more now. That's why this post was delayed today.
