The Breakout - Day 11
Loss of momentum continuing ...?
Today, the Asian markets traded with a downward bias, fearing further monetary tightening in China. The Nifty futures opened lower at 5122 and traded to a low of 5105, in the first two hours. Later, the markets rallied and closed almost at the high of 5136. However, concerted selling in the futures were seen at the 5136 to 5136.25 range, whenever the futures reached those levels. But the sellers were not seen trying to damage the price by selling downwards. Please see the intraday chart of the futures given below.
