Update on The Ultimate Momentum Signal - 8th June, 2010

The US Markets Still Hold the Key... !

Nifty Futures opened near it's 200 DMA support at 5010 and traded within a twenty point band on both the sides of the support on Monday. However, it closed above the 200 DMA at 5029. Indian market has just reacted to the Friday's Wall Street sell off and is waiting for further directional cues from the international markets. As the US market may take one or two days to find it's immediate direction, the next direction of the Nifty futures too remains unpredictable. If the US markets were to find support at the current lows and hold it, Nifty may try to test the next resistances. Traders may watch for the breach of both the low and  high of the Monday's trading range for further directional indications. As some of these breakouts may fail too, they may also watch out for such failures too.

The minimum closing values required for a +50 positive momentum has decreased and are below the trading range of Monday. However, the values required for a +100 value, indicating maximum momentum in accordance with the system, are above the Monday's trading range. Values required for a sell signal are still far off.

Since the markets are still trading all over the place on the basis of  day to day international cues, any predictive system will be susceptible to many whipsaws in such environments. Hence, the Momentum Signal System will also be suffering from whipsaw signals at present. Trading light to reduce the risk of loss is the best option at present.

Cheers and Prosperous Investing and Trading !!!
