Nifty P&F (Wk 2612-30122011) - Bears had a year, Now one for Bulls?

Merry x-mas to all of you and P&F enthusiasts!

Recap:

Today I want you all to refer this Post on 1st week of March-2011 this talked about 4300 - 4500 as target! Now that was 9 months old reading, even last week's chart read 5800 >> 5000; it did. My belief on P&F has grown stronger day by day.

Weekly Analysis:


Daily Analysis:


Summary:

Weekly halted, daily UP. If 4660-4680 is held, possibly heading for 4840-4860.

Market is making possibly a bottom. The worst bottom, if not already made at 4540, should be 4300-4340. I am expecting a consolidation, if not a complete reversal from this point. Couple of points that I am considering:
  1. the channel bottom is being bought by the Bulls again and again.
  2. many of the nifty 50 stocks have given away a year's complete gain
  3. (though I don't understand much) Elliott wave suggesting a double zig-zag
  4. gold and rupees have done enough

Critical update: S&P500 crossing 1262 might turn markets bullish

S&P 500 is showing an interesting chart! It has pulled-up from 62% fib and retraced to a channel top resistance. As I write this post, it's showing a reversal again and comfortably above SMA 50 (1227)! If it breaks past the channel top and closes above 1262, and subsequently a double top at 1295, we might see a Bull run upto 1395!This will definitely put Indian market also to a Bull phase.


Nifty might give one more opportunity to short at a higher level. A channel resistance near 4650-4660 might be a level. This could be the last short of this swing before Bulls come back at least for sometime.


It's always difficult to get the right level to enter. However, one should decide which side to play big, then it's possible to 'sell on rise' / 'buy on dip'. One can not have same R-multiples for each trade. While it's possible to have higher R-multiples at the begining of the swing, but as it comes nearer to end it's likely to result in trades of 1:1 R-multiples. But this being the trend side, often we might be surprised with higher expectancy ratio than we calculated.

To my fellow friends and traders, I would request to provide me with a good trader log or refer to something available online.

Indian equity market is really looking very dim. Most of the nifty 50 large caps are going to give away 100% of its gains since begining of 2009. I still maintain that the bear market that started from the top of 6345, should not breach 4460 (as it's the VPO). If that's the case, most of these stocks will bounce back from 62% or 78%, and the cash market should become active.

Nifty P&F (Wk 1911 - 2312) - Bears target channel bottom 4580!

Nifty Point & Figure (PnF) Analysis - Week 3110 - 0411

Recap:

Bullish undertone got converted to Bulls.

Weekly Analysis:


Daily Analysis:


Summary:

All Bulls. Daily near resistance zone at 5430. Week near resistance zone 5460 >> 5540. A pullback from this should be good opportunity for some medium-term equity investment in some large cap stocks.

P&F once again proves that a simple price action is good enough to identify trend / range and reversal. Though it will take the weekly chart to signal a complete reversal, but the daily chart is showing good amount of reversal. A few points in support for the reversal:
  • A spread daily bottom and a plain double bottom at 4720.
  • This bottom coincides with 38.2% Fib-retracement
  • It has been a year (Oct'10 to Oct'11) for one cycle of correction.
  • Some large cap stocks are bottoming out.
If this is a reversal confirmed, we are heading for two targets: HPO of 5700 and VPO of 5940. Incidentally these are respective tops of previous up legs.

We will explore more on this later.

PnF Fundamentals:

As I am not able to dedicate much time to add to my "My P&F Knowledge Share Centre", I thought I will add little bit of my P&F with fellow readers. Though I know there are not many PnF enthusiasts around, I hope to create few through my share.

PO (Price Objective):

Though I have talked about it earlier, but today would like to share a few more on this. This is a gift to the PnF followers to set a target for a position often. As the word says Price Objective, it sets an objective with a direction of the price movement. It does not necessarily talk about the target but all it means that the objective of a major reversal / pause is to normalize the market valuation to the desired level. There are primarily two types of PO - Vertical Price Objective (VPO) & Horizontal Price Objective (HPO). These are named so not merely from geometric distribution of the price but also from the psychological momentum point of view.

In my earlier topics I have covered the basics of VPO & HPO. So I won't get into the construct of them. Straightway I would start sharing my view point on these two techniques in PnF.

VPO is counted when the price changes the direction following a sharp movement in one direction (in EW this is often the v-th / c wave). HPO is counted when the price halts at certain level and becomes range-bound (in EW this is often the corrective phase). Having said, my experience is HPO is more effective in lower time frame charts compared to VPO, which is more effective in higher time frame charts. So avoid HPO in weekly chart and VPO in hourly chart. VPO is more target oriented whereas HPO is direction oriented. There can be minute VPOs within a large VPO, however, HPOs within HPO is not in my experience. In recent times my observations over VPO has been quite satisfactory (fellow readers can appreciate the accuracy of this technique). Later I will turn up with few more charts and explain.

S&P500 Point & Figure (PnF) Analysis - Week 0808 - 120811

This Week's Nifty P&F Analysis is here.


Daily Analysis:

Summary:

S&P amdist lots of structural change technically has warned many things, however has not broken the last hope yet. Rather giving an opportunity to the global economy to avert the impending recession. A long-term support line from 860 level is still holding intact. I am looking at an optimistic scenario where it is possible for S&P to revert from this level and the world markets react to positivism!

Recap:

3 weeks back we read Bears' target of 5050 here.

Weekly DOWN. Daily paused. Pullback expected near VPO 5020 - 5050 level.
