Best intraday stocks to watch out for on September 16

On Thursday, the Nifty declined over 200 points from the day’s high and settled below the 17,900 mark with a loss of 0.70%.

For the last three days, the efforts to cross 18,100 have failed. Though the price is above the 17,704 level i.e. the 20-DMA yet the latter has been turned down, which is negative. On the weekly chart, Nifty has formed a long-legged small body candle. It resembles the bearish candle made in the second week of August. The indecisiveness at the swing high is not a good sign. The index formed a dark cloud cover-like candle, which is negative for the index. It is holding the 8-EMA support for the day. The MACD line is moving flat for the last three days. The negative divergence in RSI is clearly visible now as the index is struggling to move higher.

On the hourly chart, the index failed to close above the previous bar's high, which is also a negative factor. The broader market and the index breadth are negative. The sharp decline with higher volume indicates that distribution is taking place. In any case, if the index closes below 17,704, it will register a failed breakout and it will lead to the formation of a serious bearish candle on the weekly chart. It is better to avoid aggressive positions at the current levels.
