Day trading strategy for Monday

Speaking on intraday trading strategy for Monday, Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities said, “Nifty on the weekly chart was formed similar pattern that of daily (small negative candle with long upper shadow), which indicates presence of key resistance around 18,700 levels. Having moved below the crucial immediate support of 18,500 levels, as per weekly chart, the Nifty could slide down to the next important support of 18,100 to 18,000 levels in this week. Immediate resistance for NSE Nifty is placed at 18,450 to 18,500 levels.”

Market expert Sugandha Sachdeva said, “Amid easing inflationary pressures, markets were expecting the US Fed to indicate an endpoint to its restrictive policy stance. However, all the major central banks-the US Fed, ECB, and the BOE have indicated further rate increases in their attempt to stamp out high inflation. All eyes would now be on the US consumer confidence data, third-quarter US GDP data as well the November PCE price index data for further cues.”
