Nifty's glorious sprint is in no mood to relent. In last week’s action, the intra-day correction was short-lived as index recorded yet another high last week and hovering around three-digit Gann number of 127(00). Traders must always respect trading range breakouts, by not unduly worrying over the substantial market run-up (up by over 10 percent in November so far).

As per our Breadth analysis, percentage of Nifty constituents trading above 200-DMA is 88 percent (i.e. highest in the last five years). In an uptrending market structure, breadth tends to move between 80-84 percent zone as seen earlier in 2017, wherein, Index gradually moved higher with breadth at an overbought zone.

In this kind of scenario, price-wise/time-wise correction within Nifty tends to provide buying opportunities with sector churning theme dominating headline.

Ratio of BankNifty/Nifty has the overhead hurdle of 50 percent retracement of the entire move from Feb peak to March low. The same is placed around its 250-DMA, which appears to be a tough supply zone, implying a pause in recent outperformance of BankNifty.
