For NIFTY, the 8th and 11th of November were major cycle dates. As discussed earlier, both these dates were significant for the near-term trend. Holding above the intraday lows of both these dates, we can expect a flattish kind of trade for this week. Only a daily close below both these dates’ lows would trigger a fresh leg of sharp decline.”

On the price front, 24,100 was a critical support. A break of that has eliminated the possibility of a bottom formation at 23,816. So, further lower lows are certainly due. At best, we can get a higher high above 24,537, but that too won’t signal a broader trend shift.”

Yesterday, NIFTY tested the 24,510 resistance level but was unable to sustain the momentum. As long as the index remains below this level, it suggests that the recent rebound may have peaked.” On downside The 24,100 level is a crucial support level. If this level is breached, a retest of the 23,800 and 23,600 levels could be on the cards in the coming days.” Given the current market conditions, high volatility is expected. It’s advisable to exercise caution in your trading decisions.”

NIFTY is experiencing the anticipated rebound, which began on Monday. This upward momentum is likely to persist for a few more days, provided the spot price remains above the 23,800-24,000 range. Resistance levels are at 24,510 and 24,800.”

Significant cycle dates for NIFTY are due on November 8th and 11th. Expect a strong price reaction around these dates.

Once this rebound ends we would expect further lower lows on NIFTY and overall market.”

U.S. Markets: A Post-Election Outlook.”

Regardless of current futures trends, we still anticipate lower lows for the S&P 500 once the election euphoria subsides and the FOMC meeting concludes. The next major cycle dates for U.S. markets are November 11th and 14th.”

What may seem insignificant now could make a lot of sense in next few weeks.”

NIFTY achieved our 2nd target of 23900 today. NIFTY’s decisive break below 23,900, as anticipated since mid-October, marks a significant turning point. Traders who’ve been short since late September should consider securing profits. While the current downward momentum is strong, a temporary pause at the 23,600 level is possible. A close above this level could trigger a deeper rebound. However, if 23,600 fails to hold, a decline towards 23,000 seems likely. Key dates for NIFTY’s next major cycle are November 8th and 11th.”

“Tomorrow is shaping up to be a crucial day, particularly for the banking sector. As predicted in my Sunday post, the 28th of October marked a significant turning point for the Nifty index. If the index holds above yesterday’s intraday low, we may see a period of consolidation. However, a decisive break below this level could significantly accelerate the decline.”

NIFTY Bank is a pivotal index for the near future.

To propel NIFTY towards 23,900, NIFTY Bank must provide substantial support. Private sector banks have exhibited resilience during recent market downturns. This stability is likely to persist as long as NIFTY Bank remains above 50,900. A breach of 50,900 could trigger a sharp decline, potentially targeting 49,600 and 48,500 in the coming days.

ICICI Bank’s upcoming results will be closely watched. The stock has met our selling criteria, so its performance will be a key indicator.

“NIFTY successfully achieved its primary target of 24,350 today, as anticipated in my October 18th forecast. Consistent with our predictions, market volatility has intensified this week. Last Friday, I identified the 24,900-25,100 range as a strong resistance barrier. NIFTY’s attempt to breach this zone on Monday resulted in a sharp price reversal. “If the index remains below 24,800, it may continue to decline toward its next target of 23,900.”

NIFTY’s breach of the critical support levels at 24,750-24,660 has signaled a renewed downward trend. Despite this downturn occurring amidst an incomplete retracement, we can anticipate a somewhat bumpy road ahead. Therefore, I recommend selling on rallies towards the 24,900-25,100 resistance zone. Potential targets for this bearish move include 24,350 and 23,900 in the coming days. Additionally, we expect volatility to increase significantly starting next week.
