The Weekly Nifty 50 chart
- General Discussion
- The market is currently trading in a bull channel and is near the top of this channel, providing an opportunity for bears to take short positions.
- Bulls should wait for the market to form consecutive bull bars again to confirm a continuation of the trend or consider initiating long positions near the bottom of the bull channel.
- Overall, the market remains in a strong bull trend. Traders should focus on taking swing long positions and scalp short positions. Bears, in particular, should aim to close their positions once their target or stop-loss is achieved rather than holding them as swing trades.
- Deeper into Price Action
- The bulls produced a strong bull bar but failed to achieve a solid follow-through with consecutive bull bars. As a result, many bulls who bought at the close of the breakout bar are now trapped.
- If the market forms another bear bar, these trapped bulls will likely start exiting their long positions (i.e., selling short), adding more downward pressure to the market.
- Many bears will short at the close of the current bear bar, believing that the bull breakout was actually a bull trap. However, if the market instead forms consecutive bull bars, bears should consider exiting their trades and taking long positions, as this would signal a resumption of the bull trend.
- Patterns
- The market has formed a strong outside bar. If the bears manage to break out below this outside bar, the market could move further down to its measured move target
The Daily Nifty 50 chart
- General Discussion
- Bulls who entered during the bull breakout above the significant round number of 25,000 may consider exiting their long positions, as the market has experienced a strong bearish breakout from the tight bull channel.
- Bears can initiate short positions, targeting the bottom of the tight bull channel.
- Alternatively, bears can partially close their short positions at the low of the current bear bar and add to their short positions on a «low-2» (the second leg down).
- Deeper into Price Action
- After the bearish breakout of the tight bull channel, bulls attempted to turn it into a failed bearish breakout, but the bears managed to achieve two strong consecutive bearish bars.
- As the market is still trading near the significant round number, traders should anticipate a range-bound price action for the upcoming week.
- Patterns
- Given the strong bearish breakout of the tight bull channel, and with the market already reaching the midpoint of this channel, there is a high probability that this will develop into a trading range
