Consolidation on the cards amid stock specific action…
Equity benchmarks settled with modest gains, closing off the life-time high recorded earlier in the week following risk-off sentiment amid rising geopolitical tensions
in the Middle East. The Sensex settled at 29706, up 86 points or 0.29% while the Nifty shut shop at 9198, up 24 points or 0.27%. The broader markets outperformed
the benchmarks as the BSE midcap and small cap indices rose 0.97% and 1.71%, respectively.
The weekly price action resembles a Shooting Star candle with small real body and long upper shadow highlighting profit booking at higher levels after the index
approached its key overhead hurdle placed near 9250. Follow through weakness and close below last week’s bullish gap area (9173) will signal a pause in the
uptrend and open the floor for a round of consolidation between 9000 and 9300, going forward. As we are entering the quarterly earnings season, we expect stock
specific activity to remain in focus while the index undergoes a round of consolidation. In the present scenario, we expect the 9250-9300 zone to act as a strong
hurdle for the index. The current pullback off recent low of 9020 lacks the requisite momentum and confirms our view of sideways consolidation in the near term.
• The index has displayed signs of waning upward momentum firstly after the last NSE Nifty Weekly Candlestick Chart
falling segment extended in magnitude (9218 to 9019 =199 points) compared to
previous intermediate corrections that measured around 135 points since
December 2016 lows. Time wise, the current pullback off previous week’s low of 2016 Yearly
9020 took eight sessions to retrace the preceding four session’s decline (9218 to high 8968
9019). The fall getting bigger and slower pace of retracement confirm that the Support base
momentum prevalent in the up move since start of this year has slowed down @ 9000
and paves the way for a round of consolidation between the broad range of 9000
and 9300 in near term
• The Nifty has shown hesitation precisely near our earmarked target placed
around 9250 region as it is a key hurdle based on the confluence of 123.6%
reciprocal retracement of the entire decline from September to December 2016
decline placed at 9225, which also coincides with 138.2% price extension of the
last rising segment (8712 to 8992) measured from the recent higher bottom of
8860 placed around 9250 levels 7927 Double Bottom near
(Brexit Low) 7900 value area
• We have revised the immediate support threshold for the index upwards to the
9000 region as it is the confluence of following:
 The double bottom formed at last two weeks identical lows is placed at 9019 Resistance: 9275, 9380
 Bullish gap area formed post state election results between 9060 and 8934 Support: 9100, 9000
 Price wise equality with the last falling segment (199 points) measured from
the recent swing high of 9273 projects support in the vicinity of 9075 region
• Among oscillators, the short-term stochastic is seen easing off from overbought Stochastic is cooling off from overbought zone and displays
zone (83). The RSI as well as stochastic oscillators are displaying a negative negative divergence signalling waning upward momentum
divergence which is a sign of waning upward momentum and suggests
continuance of consolidation in the upcoming truncated week
• Stock Pick: Buy Raymond in the range of | 638-649, Target | 715, Stop loss | 609
• Sectors: We expect energy, capital goods, MNC and PSU indices to relatively
outperform the benchmark in coming weeks. We believe any dips in the auto
and FMCG space should be used as a buying opportunity. In the
underperforming pharma and IT space we believe one should wait for the result
season to pan out before taking fresh positions Source: Bloomberg, ICICIdirect.com Research

Nifty Bank (21442): Index set to enter consolidation mode…
• The Nifty Bank index underperformed the benchmarks and ended marginally CNX Bank Nifty Weekly Bar Chart
lower for the week after paring the initial gains post RBI’s monetary policy
announcement in which the apex bank left key policy rate unchanged while 21729
hiking the reverse repo rate by 25 basis points. For the week, the Nifty Bank
index shed 46 points or 0.21% to shut shop at 21442
20649
• The weekly price action resembles a Shooting star like candle with small bear
body and long upper shadow highlighting profit bookings emerging at higher
levels after the current up move mid February low (20055 to 21729 =1674) 1674 pts
almost achieved price wise equality with last two rising segments measuring
an average 1700 points. Follow through weakness and close below the
candle’s low (21411) will confirm a pause in momentum and pave the way for 1762 pts
a round of consolidation, going forward. With major events out of the way, we
believe the Nifty Bank index is set to move sideways between the broad range
of 21750 and 20800 amid stock specific action 1680 pts
• The Nifty Bank index almost achieved our earmarked target of 21750 as it 17617
made a new life-time high of 21729 before surrendering gains post RBI policy.
The current up move off recent low of 20822 has lacked requisite momentum
as the index took nine sessions to retrace the preceding four session decline
(21678 to 20822). Slower pace of the pullback confirms a pause in the uptrend
and opens the floor for a round of consolidation, going forward. We expect the Resistance: 21750, 21900
index to consolidate between the broad range of 21750 and 20800 in the Support: 21250, 21100
short-term amid stock specific action. Only a decisive close above 21750 will
open up room for extension of the current up move towards 22500 over the
coming months as it is the 161.8% reciprocal retracement of the 2016
correction which will be the next likely target for current up move
• We have revised the short-term support base for the index upwards to 20800 Negative divergence on stochastic signals waning upward momentum
region. We believe any dips from here on will attract strong demand at the
earmarked value area as it is the confluence of following:
 The recent higher bottom is placed around 20822
 Upper band of February-March consolidation placed around 20850 region
 38.2% retracement of up move post Union budget is around 20875

• Among oscillators, the short-term stochastic is exhibiting negative divergence


as it formed lower high against higher high on price front suggesting waning
upward momentum and supports our view of consolidation, going forward

Weekly Pick: Raymond (RAYMON): At the cusp of breakout from bullish rounding pattern...

CMP: | 644.70 Buying range: | 638.00-649.00 Target: | 715.00 Stop loss: | 609.00

• The share price of Raymond is at the cusp of Weekly Bar Chart


registering a breakout above the neckline of rounding

pattern placed around | 654. A rounding formation
of previous decline @ 725
within an uptrend is considered a bullish continuation The stock is at the cusp of a bullish rounding pattern
pattern, which marks a healthy corrective phase as breakout thus offering fresh entry opportunity
prices work off the overbought conditions developed
after a strong rally before resumption of the primary Neckline @ 654
uptrend
• The base of the rounding pattern is anchored upon
the long term trendline support joining the previous 573
highs of December 2014 (| 573) and June 2016 }(|
494) as can be seen in the adjacent chart highlighting 494
the Change of polarity principle, which signals the

• The stock tested the neckline of the rounding pattern
in the first week of March 2017 and then
consolidating just below the neckline level over the 347
200 Weeks EMA
past five weeks. We believe the bullish consolidation
at the breakout area provides fresh entry opportunity
for short-term traders to ride the next up move
• The recent rally in price was accompanied by rising Volume rise with rise in price signals larger
volume of almost four times the 50 weeks average participation in the direction of the trend
volume of 12 lakh share per week indicating larger
participation in the direction of the trend
• Among oscillators, the weekly MACD (E-12/26/9) is in Weekly MACD in uptrend forming higher high and is sustaining
uptrend forming higher high thus supports the in positive territory thus validates bullish bias in price
positive bias in the price

term, as it is the 138.2% external retracement of the
last major decline (| 654-458)

Positive and Negative Trends:
The stocks listed in the positive and negative trends section above have been identified after running multiple technical queries based on combination of
various technical parameters applied on a group of NSE cash stocks. The query modules are designed to recognise stocks, which are either at attractive
technical entry levels based on overall price structure or resolving out of medium term consolidation. Consequently the query modules are also aimed at
identifying the stocks which are under performers or in established down trends and therefore may not be good bets from short to medium term perspective.
Candlestick patterns:
Candlestick formations on weekly time interval charts typically point towards the prevailing sentiment comprising the entire trading week and could prove as
an important tool for short term traders. By themselves, the patterns do not carry any price target but only an indication of change in market behaviour. More
importance needs to be given to the placement of the pattern within larger trend. A more detailed description of Candlestick patterns and the way to
understand them is listed at the end of the report

Notes
Deal Team – At Your Service
• Please execute the recommendation within the prescribed range provided in the report

• Once the recommendation is executed, it is advisable to keep strict stop loss as provided in the report on closing basis

• We adapt a trading strategy of booking 50% profit when the position is in profit by 3-5% and trail stop loss on remaining position to the
entry point

• In recommendations where it is advised to buy on declines, if the target price is hit before activation of the call in prescribed range then the
recommendation is considered not initiated

• The recommendations are valid only for the week and are to be squared off by the end of the week. In case we intend to carry forward the
position, it will be communicated through separate mail

Trading Portfolio allocation

• It is recommended to spread out the trading corpus in a proportionate manner between the various technical research products

• Please avoid allocating the entire trading corpus to a single stock or a single product segment

• Within each product segment it is advisable to allocate equal amount to each recommendation

• For example: The ‘Daily Calls’ product carries 3 to 4 intraday recommendations. It is advisable to allocate equal amount to each
recommendation

Candlesticks Glossary:
Deal Team – At Your Service
Candlestick patterns describe the market sentiment for the specified period. Some of the formations suggest reversal of sentiment (trend) and, therefore, are
important for a chart reader. By themselves, the patterns do not carry any price target but only an indication of change in market behaviour. More importance
needs to be given to the placement of the pattern within larger trend
Morning Star: Potential bottom reversal pattern made of three candle lines. The first sizeable black candle reflects a market in which the bears are in complete
charge. The next candle line--the small real body--shows a slight diminution of the bearish force. The white candle that makes up the last part of the morning
star visually displays the bulls are gaining the upper hand. Lowest low amongst three candles becomes technical support
Bullish Engulfing Line: A potential bottom reversal pattern. This pattern typically appears at the culmination of a decline or downtrend. The market falls, and a
black candle forms (ideally a small black candle). Next, a white real body wraps around the prior session’s black body. Low of the pattern becomes short term
support for prices
Piercing Line: Potential bottom reversal pattern. A black body forms in the downtrend. The market continues moving south on the next session’s open but that
session culminates in a white real body that closes (e.g. pierces) than half way or more into the prior black body. Lowest low between two candles is referred to
as technical support for prices
Hammer: A candlestick line which, during a downtrend, has a very long lower shadow and small real body (black or white) at the top end of the session’s
range. There should be no, or a very small, upper shadow. Pattern suggests buying support during declines and needs confirmation in terms of sustainability of
prices above head of the Hammer in following session
Evening Star: Potential Top reversal pattern made of three candle lines. Comparable with a traffic signal. First white candle reflects a market in bullish trend.
The next candle line--the small real body—warns waning momentum. The black candle that completes the evening star visually exhibits that prior up trend has
stopped or reversed
Bearish Engulfing Line: Potential top reversal signal. This two candlestick pattern emerges during a rally. A black candle real body wraps around a white real
body (classically a small white candle) Highest high between two candles becomes resistance level for prices for future reference
Dark Cloud cover: A dark cloud cover forms a top reversal pattern. The first session should be a strong, white real body. The second session’s price opens over
the prior session’s high (or above the prior session’s close). By the end of the second session, it closes near the low of the session and should fall well into the
prior session’s white body. Pattern suggests that market has a poor chance of rising immediately
Shooting Star: A single candlestick line during a rally in which there is a small real body (white or black) at the bottom end of the session's range and a very
long upper shadow. The candle line should also have little or no lower shadow. Pattern suggest the trouble for prices overhead
Continuation Patterns: Other than widely known Candlestick reversal patterns discussed above, there are numerous patterns mentioned in literature on
Candlestick which describe the continuation of existing sentiments i.e. bullish or bearish. We have refrained from mentioning names of these patterns to avoid
confusion. However, the remark Continuation Pattern refers to bullish or bearish candlestick patterns which suggest continuation of existing trend
