Day trading guide for stock market today
Speaking on day trading strategy for Nifty today, Subash Gangadharan, Senior Technical and Derivative Analyst at HDFC Securities said, “While we remain open to further pullback rallies in the very near term, we must remember that the intermediate trend remains down. The bears would gain more control once the recent intermediate low of 15,735 is broken.”
Advising traders to remain cautious and avoid long positions, Ruchit Jain, Lead Research, 5paisa.com said, “The Nifty mid-cap index was unable to surpass its moving average hurdle and has resumed its ‘Lower Top Lower Bottom’ structure. Thus, the downtrend has resumed post a consolidation phase in the mid-cap space and it could well spill over to the indices as well in the near term. Hence, traders are advised to stay cautious and avoid longs until the Nifty cross its ’20 DEMA’ hurdle, which is now around 16,350.”
Suggesting ‘Sell on Rise’ strategy for traders, Ruchit Jain said, “One can keep trading with a ‘Sell on Rise’ strategy and use intraday pullbacks to lighten up longs as well.”
