Nifty P&F analysis: Horizontal columns. Let them decide direction!!

Horizontal columns. Let them decide direction!!
Date: 14th Sept 2014

Nifty last closing price: 8105.50

Daily chart
Figure 1 is 10 box value chart plotted with daily closing prices. Column has finally turned to ‘O’ after recording 60 boxes of ‘X’. Price is trading above bullish line and Trend remains up. Setup is bullish unless price closes below 7875.

Hourly Chart
Figure 2 is 10 box value chart plotted with hourly high-low prices. The setup is horizontal at the moment, meaning no decisive trend. ‘X’ is still dominating in the right part of the chart but High pole formation is followed by double bottom sell signal that indicates some weakness. Price has taken support at bottom of previous column of ‘O’. 8050 – 8040 seems immediate support and more downside counts will get activated if that level is breached. 8060 will become mini bottom if price trades above 8130.

1 Min Chart
Figure 3 is 5 box value chart plotted with closing prices of every minute. Horizontal trend can very well be seen on this chart. 8040 – 60 shown by yellow box in the chart is immediate support zone. Anchor point of the pattern is at 8090 level and setup around that would be interesting.

Horizontal trend or Fulcrum pattern gives opportunity to analyse the structure in 1 box chart. Figure 4 is 1 min chart of 5 box value plotted with 1 box reversal.  Within larger Fulcrum, there are smaller Fulcrum patterns shown in the chart by plotting horizontal counts from them. Breakout from these small patterns can provide short term trading opportunities. Breakout awaited from current pattern hence counts in both the direction are shown. Anchor Point hence base of the larger Fulcrum is at 8090 levels. The same kind of Fulcrum setup was developed at 7900 – 7950 levels between 19th to 27th August which was followed by upside breakout as shown in Figure 5.

As expected & wrote during last week, price is consolidating and short term trend has become horizontal. Let breakout happen.  8050 – 8040 is immediate support zone and 7940 – 7960 is next level to be seen. Larger trend remains bullish with higher active counts. And formation of ‘X’ on daily chart remains interesting unless price goes below 7875.

Hourly Chart

Figure 2 is 10 box value chart plotted with hourly high-low prices. Tick above 7970 discussed during last week worked well and long column of ‘X’ managed to beat several upper counts. Currently, last signal is Double bottom sell in this chart which is a signal to exit longs in the uptrend. A mini bottom will be formed at current levels if price goes above 8130. Anchor Point of the move is at 7900 levels.

1 Min Chart

Figure 3 is 5 box value chart plotted with closing prices of every minute. Price is trading below bearish line for a while and several downside counts up to 7955 are active now. Current pattern is Triple bottom sell which is bearish. And chart will remain bearish unless price goes above 8125.


Lower time frame charts are turning down and will not be bullish unless price trades above 8130. Larger trend is up with many active higher counts and any ‘X’ or bullish signal above 7845 will be an opportunity to trade long for medium term traders.
