A Flat Close and Nifty Futures Seeking Direction ?
- First a disclosure. This author didn't attend most part of the trading session on Wednesday. Therefore, this update is kept very short avoiding long market commentaries. However, all the data, charts and system updates are included.
- Nifty futures as well as the major stocks seem to be seeking direction for moving either way at present. Therefore, market seems to be going through a phase of sideways ranged trading. Here is a quote from the previous post, which might remain very relevant as of now : 'Readers are once again requested to take note that even the best analysis and the trading system outputs are susceptible to become wrong, whenever the market goes in to a trading range. This is because of the fact that trading ranges are formed as a result of haphazard trading with sudden reversals, but mainly confined to a broad range.'
