The domestic equity benchmark indices sky-rocketed to new heights. Last week, NSE Nifty and BSE Sensex, the frontline indices, were up by 0.91 per cent and 0.94 per cent, respectively. The Midcap-100 and Smallcap-100 indices advanced by 0.74 per cent and 1.82 per cent, respectively. The PSU Bank index is the top gainer with 3.96 per cent. The Nifty IT declined by 3.47 per cent, which is the top loser. The Advance-decline ratio is mostly positive. FII bought Rs17,697.89 crore, and the DIIs sold Rs8,906.19 crore worth of equities in the current month.
Six weeks ago, the Nifty broke out of an 85-week ascending triangle with a below-average volume. The ascending triangle breakouts normally lead to an impulsive move. Post breakout, the Nifty rallied by 7.5 per cent. The current upside move gained by 3,163 points or 18.80 in just 17 weeks. This is equaled to October 2021- June 2021 correction of 18.35 per cent. The current rally is more impulsive as it achieved it in just 50 per cent of the time of the major correction. The current rally is extended by just over 85 per cent of the prior upside swing. This is one of the most impulsive rallies in the history of Nifty. The pattern target, the 100 per cent extension, is placed at 20,525pts. Because of its impulsive nature, it distances too far from the mean average (20DMA). Whenever the Nifty moves more than five per cent away from the 20DMA, it tries to reverse to the mean level, which is at 19,372pts. Retesting of a pattern breakout is also a normal phenomenon. If the Nifty decisively closes well below the previous week’s low of 19,562pts, we test the 20DMA of 19,372pts. In case of retesting or pullback, the price retraces 38.2 per cent of the prior rally. In other words, Friday’s correction continues; it may test the 18,783pts, which is a meaningful correction. It may take 3-5 weeks to achieve this downside target.
In a bull case scenario, the pattern (Shooting Star) fails to get the confirmation for its implications; we will see the extension of the rally towards the 100 per cent target of 20,525 sooner.
To achieve this, it must not close below the prior weekly low and must continue to move higher above the previous week’s high.
