Bull domination

K. Premkumar

Tuesday’s trading witnessed bull domination. The sentiment reading of the tradable counters remains bullish.

Bear domination on Wednesday is likely to change the sentiment reading in their favour. On the contrary, the current sentiment is likely to be strengthened with additional counters.

Nifty Futures

The May month contract opened with a bull gap of around 19 points from its previous close. The May month contract moved within a range of around 148 points. The May month contract closed with a gain of around 111 points from its previous close.

The long position in the Nifty May month contract is intact. The long exit and short entry level is placed quite far away from its last traded price. These levels are unlikely to be triggered during Wednesday’s trading activity.

The composition and the ranking of the top-10 list had minor changes. NTPC and Ranbaxy went out from the top 10 tradable list and gave way to Satyam and TCS. Tata Steel moved to sixth position in the top 10 tradable list.

Except Infosys and BHEL, all other counters in the top-10 list are in uptrend. Reliance Industries and ICICI Bank are under threat for Wednesday. There are two selling opportunities in Reliance Industries and ICICI Bank for Wednesday’s trading. Buying opportunities are likely to exist in Infosys and BHEL. The best is likely to be buying in Infosys.

This counter is in sideways mode. Bull move on Wednesday is likely to initiate a fresh uptrend in this counter.

Cash segment
