Sensex Technical Analysis - Jan 5th






The Sensex is showing some good signs or considering the street sentiment a sign of hope.

There are few things that give hope, here are they:

1. The capitulation seems to have been completed at around 7900. The latest moves are likely to be more rangebound and the low is perhaps completed.

2. Though not a big fan of elliot in trying to look ahead, the five wave pattern (probably C or E) has been completed at lows of 8300. This would imply a good levels going ahead

3. Perhaps the most bullish sign right now is the appreance of rounding bottom like pattern. I am circumspect of this truning out to be a true rounding bottom i.e. I do not expect the thrust to be similar to the actual rounding bottoms. The pattern is violated because of a gap and thrust, which in my interpretation violates the rounding bottom in short term charts. The upper break in these cases do not yeild the same amount of returns otherwise an unviolated pattern would yeild.

4. It is porbable the seeds for a big rally are being sowed and are at its earliest stages

The pitfalls of these assumptions are the half made triangle that is still in development. The retracement of 61% is ideal in case of contracting triangle. The triangle is more likely than a rounding bottom. The significance of rounding bottom is just this - the accumulation has started to happen. This is significant. Make sure you watch the reaction to the break of stop loss of this bottom. If the reaction is very sharp, they we are probably going break below the triangle levels and turn it into more an expanding bias.

Happy Trading.

Net Neutrality - Fight for free expression

The "Net neutrality" issue, where we fear networks/infrastructure providers will decide (euphemism for censorship) what customers will read/watch/listen/buy on net. Many of the features that we fear in the "Net-neutrality" have already been implemented across various other platforms like telecom. For example, my telecom service provider has blocked the competitors GPRS sites and also does not allow access to many other sites on Internet, from where the free goodies like mobile applications, software, games, wallpapers, tones etc can be downloaded. This leaves me with the only service provider for above products, the service provider himself. This is totally blocking my freedom and my right to choose. This is just a glimpse; with "Net-neutrality" issues at stake are enormous. There should be no way; any entity (maybe, other than individual governments.) should be able to determine what is accessible and what is not. :) Falkor

Definition of Cult Stocks

From a blog: A classification describing stocks that have a sizable investor following, despite the fact that the underlying company has somewhat insignificant fundamentals. Typically, investors are initially attracted to the company's potential and accumulate positions in speculation that its potential will be fulfilled, providing the investors with a substantial payout. While most of these cult stocks promise they will be the next big story after they make a new discovery or get the newest contract from the government, most do not provide investors with anything other than the story. Furthermore, these stocks typically generate very little, if any, revenue at all. For example, many micro-cap biotech stocks are cult stocks. While they promise that they are going to be working on a miracle compound or drug, most of them do not have any source of income as they slowly burn away their initial capital in research and development. However, some cult stocks do occasionally make good on...
