Today morning, except a 0.3% higher Nikkei, other Asian markets are trading with modest cuts and SGX Nifty is suggesting about 15 points lower start for our market.
In yesterday's report we had mentioned that 8860, the upper level of the gap created by the big gap down opening last Monday, continues to be the immediate hurdle to eye, upon sustained trading above which, 8970 would the next important resistance. We had also said that 8690, the bottom made last week, is the important support to eye, a close below which, will also confirm a lower-top lower-bottom formation on the daily chart and would pave the way for the retest of the 8540 bottom, from where the rally had begun in the fag end of August .
That continues to be the view. Traders should wait for the breach of 8860 on the upside or 8690 on the downside for taking a fresh view on Nifty.
Central banks in Japan and the U.S. begin closely watched two-day policy meetings today. US Federal Reserve is widely expected to stay put, following a deluge of disappointing U.S. data. The BOJ, meanwhile, is expected to take some action, as speculation points to a possible rate cut deeper into negative territory.
