Bears took over Dalal Street on January 4, ripping the benchmark Nifty down 190points. On the four-hourly chart, the index has given an upward consolidation breakdown, besides the shorter moving average (21 EMA - exponential moving average - 18,233) finished the day lower than the longer moving average (50 EMA - 18,162), confirming the bearish scenario.
With the momentum indicator RSI (14 - relative strength index) remaining in a bearish crossover, the trend and momentum of the price suggest a rise in bearish bets in the market. Further declines are possible in the future that may bring the index down to 17,950.
Again, below 17,950, the index may slip to 17,800 and lower. On the higher end, 18,155–18,200 may act as immediate resistance, above which the bulls may gain strength.
