Market seemingly respected the Fibonacci Retracement line mentioned in our report yesterday. But a careful look revealed that the line might become a new resistance if more traders do not go bullish from the next trading day. Ordinarily, prompted by today’s recovery move, more traders are expected to attempt taking advantage of beaten equities share prices tomorrow. This will add to the market, strength needed to break the barrier against its north move. It is our opinion that, confirming the move before assuming a short term bullish position is an intelligent investment decision.
Should the market gather bullish strength tomorrow, traders should observe tradable stocks in the Banking sub sector, as technical readings on the sector after today’s trade is a bullish engulfing pattern (strictly recommended for traders).
Volume Index for today’s activity is 0.78 while buy volume and sell volume momentum is estimated at 43% and 57% respectively.
