Market review 27th July 2008 - after a forced break

Well, Blogger's heuristics and/or fuzzy logic thought this blog is a SPAM and the blog got locked out for the past 3 weeks. After two follow-ups, a manual review seems to have been undertaken and the blog has finally been unlocked. Must thank God for small mercies, the Google / Blogger staff for the huge mercy. I sincerely hope the logic would have been fixed by the Blogger team.

Coming to the Indian Stock Market, a lot has happened in the past 3 weeks since the last post, with a strong bullish phase, as indicated in the last phase followed by corrections. STIXi on its part has been performing admirably well. There was a phase during the upmove, STIXi was distinctly underperforming most of the front-line indices. Not any more, as evident in this chart.



On the weekly charts of STIXi, the trend is still positive, with both Stochastics(14,3) as well as Stochastics (5,3) remaining in positive zone.

However on the daily charts, some of the technical indicators are showing or about to show negative bias. The trend for the early part of the week is likely to be negative. Expect a flat-to-positive close for the week. Trend likely to remain range-bound with negative bias for the near to medium term.

Cheers and safe trading
