Nifty Point & Figure analysis!!

Nifty P&F Analysis!!
Date: 22nd November 2015

Nifty last closing price: 7856.55

Daily chart

Figure 1 is 10 box P&F chart plotted with daily closing prices. The pattern is bullish broadening formation occurred after bearish broadening formation which is exactly opposite of the formation occurred before recent fall as shown in the chart. Interestingly, these are rare formations. But it cannot be the reason to expect similar kind of up move in the price. As discussed during last week, price is expected to hover around 7800. Trend remain down but trading setup is neutral.


Hourly Min Chart

Figure 2 is 10 box P&F chart plotted with hourly closing prices. Count and support level of 7710 discussed during prior write ups worked well and price bounced back from the same level. 7800 should work as support from here in short term as well. Hovering around that level is expected but bearish pattern below that can bring weakness and indicate that price may not be able to hold 7700. Supply zone on the higher side is at 7970 - 8010.

Figure 3 is X-Percent P&F Breadth indicator of Nifty 50. Indicator is at 42% hence at neutral zone. Setup on this indicator shown during last post  helped in identifying oversold zone and avoiding fresh shorts.

In brief

Trend is down but trade setup is neutral. Bearish pattern below 7800 would indicate that 7700 will not be held. 7970 - 8010 is resistance zone on the higher side.

Nifty Point & Figure analysis

Nifty P&F Analysis!!
Date: 8th November 2015

Nifty last closing price: 7954.30

Daily chart

Figure 1 is 10 box P&F chart plotted with daily closing prices. Trend is down and pattern is bearish. It is 100% bearish pole meaning there is High pole and Bull trap in the same column. Last closing price is near support level of 7960 as discussed during last post. Price has seen important reversals around same level in the recent past when we look at left side of the chart. Short term bounce is possible if this level is held on closing basis. Bihar election news may result in gap down due to bearish sentiments. There is Anchor Point around 7800 which may act as support in that case. Though trend is down and any bearish formation would be an opportunity. Price above 8120 will form the Low Pole which is an exit level for shorts. Level will be trailed down further with new Os. 


Hourly Min Chart

Figure 2 is 10 box P&F chart plotted with hourly closing prices. 8130 worked well where price found resistance. Last price is near support level of 7960. Downside count of 7710 has got activated which is also a support level looking at previous bottoms. 7800 is Anchor point which can be seen on daily chart. Hence formations around these two levels should be monitored.  


Figure 3 is X-Percent P&F Breadth indicator of Nifty 50. Indicator is at 36% now which is a neutral zone.

In brief

Trend is down. 7800 and  7700 are reference levels on the lower side.

Nifty Point & Figure analysis

Nifty P&F Analysis!!
Date: 1st November 2015

Nifty last closing price: 8065.80

Daily chart

Figure 1 is 10 box P&F chart plotted with daily closing prices. High pole got formed when price went below 8205 which was the trigger to exit longs as discussed during last week. Retracement has exceeded 100% of previous swing move to form 100% pole. Price is trading below 45 degree trend line hence setup has become bearish but Double bottom sell signal would provide confirmation. Hence a bounce not going above 8180 (mid column value) would provide a trading opportunity to bears. Interestingly, current formation is bearish broadening formation followed after bullish broadening formation that indicates difficult phase for trend followers.


Hourly Min Chart

Figure 2 is 10 box P&F chart plotted with hourly closing prices. 8130 and 8190 are resistance levels if price witness bounce from here (Trend line & Anchor point). Previous bear trap can provide short term support around 7960 as shown in the chart. 7820 is cluster of support levels where one should look for bullish setup.

Figure 3 is X-Percent P&F Breadth indicator of Nifty 50. This indicator was major reason I wrote not to initiate fresh longs. I believe that breadth analysis is the vital tool in any kind of a trading kit. Indicator is at 38% now which is a neutral zone.

Figure 4 is 0.50% box P&F chart of Nifty plotted with closing prices. This chart was discussed during last post with reason for expecting a resistance. It has worked well.
   
In brief

Setup is turning bearish. Follow through will generate trading opportunity. 8130, 8190 on the higher side and 7960, 7820 on the lower side are key reference levels for the reasons mentioned above.
