Bank Nifty has slipped below 5EMA, what's in store next?
Last Updated: 10th December 2022 - 02:43 am
Bank Nifty opened lower on Friday and it took support around the 8EMA.
Interestingly, it closed below the prior bar low and the below the 5EMA. It has formed a shooting star like pattern on the weekly chart. Meanwhile, on the daily time frame, MACD has given a fresh sell signal, and the RSI has declined below the 70 zone. This may lead to further profit booking in the index. The index may retrace towards its 20DMA, which is placed at the level of 42480. In the bear case scenario, a 23.6% retracement of the uptrend is possible which stands at the level of 42068. There is a probability of testing these levels. The index has failed to close decisively above the 43388 level for the last two weeks.
This is nothing but a 61.8% extension of the prior trend. A bounce from the 20DMA may surpass this strong resistance. On an hourly chart, the index is still above the moving average ribbon, and the MACD line is just on the zero line, which means it has not given the short signal yet. On Monday, we may get a get clear directional signal for the short term.
