Update on The Ultimate Momentum Signal - 7th April, 2010

Dow Just below 11 K and Sensex below 18 K....!

The Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJIA ) and BSE Sensex are both trading just below big round numbers with low volumes and low volatility. However, in major headlines, the name of Greece is again to the fore...!  Investors are selling Greek assets and moving the money to international banks like HSBC, says a report. In another news there are apprehensions raised about the Greek bailout by the EU - IMF combine. Bank for International Settlements ( BIS ) says that most industrialized countries have extended in their borrowings or are likely to be extended in the future.  Currencies are trading in a volatile fashion. The rise of Indian Rupee is helping the FIIs.  And that rounds up the general maket conditions at present.

Meanwhile the Nifty Futures closed very near to the Monday's close forming an evening star doji candlestick. Is it a sign of weakness ahead ?
