Index trend and stocks in action April 04, 2019
The Nifty opened the session on a positive note and went on to test the record high level of 11,760. However, it could not sustain at the higher levels and came off about 130 points from the high point of the day and ended the day below the 11,700 mark, down by 0.59 per cent. The price action formed a long bearish candle resembling a bearish engulfing candle, which has been formed at the new all-time high level. Also, a classical double top formation has been witnessed with almost identical high in August 2018 and April 2019. In the coming session, the level of 11,620 is a crucial support level for the index and if the index fails to hold this support, expect corrective action to continue and the index may test level of 11,570, followed 11,500. In today’s session the outcome of RBI monetary policy will provide further direction to the markets. Market participants have already factored in a rate cut of 25 bps.
