Introduction to Technical Analysis and Candlestick Theory
US Market:
Wall Street stocks rose again on Friday, adding to weekly gains following economic data that set the stage for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates.
Analysts say new jobs and inflation data in recent days have supported the Fed’s belief that inflation has moderated significantly.
On Friday, futures markets shrugged off the prospect of a half-percentage-point cut in interest rates, rather than a quarter-point, after markets had favored a smaller cut earlier in the week.
The broad-based S&P 500 ended up 0.5 percent for the day and more than four percent for the week, at 5,626.02. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.7 percent to 41,393.78, while the tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index rose 0.7 percent to 17,683.98.
European share:
European shares rounded off the week on a positive note, supported by technology, real estate and mining shares, while investors turned their attention to the US Federal Reserve ahead of long-awaited monetary easing at its meeting next week.
The pan-European STOXX 600 index was up 0.7% on the day at 515.75 points, up more than 1% for the week.
German stocks outperformed European peers with gains of around 1% as shares of Siemens Energy and SAP rose. Consumer prices in the region’s second-largest economy rose 2.2% year-on-year in August, after France’s CAC 40 rose 0.4%, with its preliminary reading.
Tech View:
The Nifty rallied on Friday, closing down 32 points amid choppy movements. A small negative candlestick with a small lower shadow formed on the daily chart. According to Nagaraj Shetty, Senior Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities, technically, such range-bound movement following a sharp uptrend is considered a breathing pattern and is seen as a continuation of the uptrend.
“On the weekly chart Nifty has moved forward and surrounded the long bearish candle of the previous week, hence the bearish pattern of the last week has been cancelled. This is a positive action and usually such negatives of a bearish pattern result in more upside,” said Shetty.
“Nifty’s short-term trend continues to be positive. A sustained move above 25,400 levels could push Nifty to the upside around 25,800 in the near term. Immediate support is at 25,200,” he added.
Stocks Showing Bullish Bias:
The momentum indicator Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed bullish signals for Nuwama Wealth Management, Gravita India, Info Edge, Keynes Technology, Thangamile Jewellery, Piramal Enterprises, CET and others.
MACD is known for indicating the opposite trend in traded securities or indices. When the MACD crosses above the signal line, it gives a bullish signal, indicating that the price of the security may experience an upward movement. Conversely, when the MACD crosses below the signal line, it indicates a potential downward move.
Stocks signaling further weakness:
MACD showed bearish signs for Ajanta Pharma, Aris Lifesciences, Jubilant Industries, IIFL Securities, P&G Health, Concorde Control Systems, Technvision Ventures and others. A bearish crossover on the MACD for these stocks indicates that they may have started their downward journey.
