Outlook for Today:
On Japanese candlestick patterns the index has formed a long black body candle on substantially higher volumes. In fact yesterday’s candle is almost like a Black Marubozu candle. (A Black Marubozu forms when the open equals the high and the close equals the low). This is negative.
Further, the index has dropped below its 5 day moving average. The index is now below its 5, 15, 25 and 200 day moving averages. Moreover, the velocity parameters continue to remain negatively trended. All these indicate a negative bias and the possibility of a further decline unfolding. Investors are advised to avoid buying at current levels.
