Frenzied buying by FIIs is supporting the market even at high levels of valuations. An unhealthy trend in recent days is the rally in low-grade stocks. Many new retail investors are recklessly buying these ‘cats & dogs’ without any consideration for fundamentals. This is a risky game fraught with the potential for huge losses. There is safety in quality large-caps in IT, pharma, private sector banking, consumer goods and select autos. Quality stocks will bounce back even if there is a sharp correction. But low-grade stocks will turn illiquid resulting in huge losses. Retail investors should exercise caution.

We are top heavy at this point in time. 14,150 is the current resistance level and if we can get past that 14,200-14,250 is a possibility. However, it is recommended that we maintain a cautious stance and trade with lighter quantities on the buy side with strict stops. The risk reward is currently skewed and we should wait for dips or corrections and then evaluate the markets. Accumulation of long positions should ideally happen on corrections.

Tech View: Nifty forms Hanging Man
Nifty50 on Monday extended the gains, but negated a higher low that it was making for eight sessions. The index formed a ‘Hanging Man’ candle on the daily chart, that usually suggests exhaustion of the ongoing momentum.
