Yesterday, Nifty opened around 130 points higher but quickly succumbed to selling pressure. The selling started within the first 30 minutes of trading. The fall was the highest since May 18. Domestic cues such as the outcome of GDP data for the June quarter, outcome of the meeting of SEBI with brokers, leading corporates and exchanges, escalation of Indo-China border tensions, and profit booking can be attributed to the fall. The volatility index surged more than 27% due to the aforementioned factors.
Yesterday’s action qualified as a distribution day as the fall was more than 0.2% on volume higher than the previous session. With the increased distribution day count, we changed the market status to an Uptrend Under Pressure. We will change the status to a Downtrend if two or three more distribution days are added or if Nifty breaches the 50-DMA (10,986) and the 200-DMA (10,818). On the flip side, the status will be back to a Confirmed Uptrend if Nifty retakes the 11,795 level (high during the recent rally).
