Nifty (weekly close approx. 9915.25):
Last week’s technical:
This week, on Monday, Nifty was mostly flat.
On Tuesday, Nifty corrected mostly due to sharp correction in ITC stock.
But, market recovered on Wednesday.
The Thursday and Friday saw quite volatile intraday trade in Nifty within a broader 80 points range.
Eventually Nifty closed the week with approx. 30 points of gain.
We had indicated this in our last weekly report that this week can be a week of consolidation if price closes below 5 DMA.
The market behaved in a similar fashion.
Hourly Technical:
In hourly time frame, Nifty has practically flat Bollinger bands which indicate further consolidation in a broader range of 9800 to 9930.
But Nifty can turn bullish if it breaks above 9930 zone.
On the downside, major hourly moving averages are situated in the zone 9880-9895.
But they do not hold much significance as the Nifty is stuck in a flat range for the last few days.
A decisive up or down move beyond the range will be crucial in the expiry week.
On the up-side, there is the much-awaited level of 10000 and on the downside, 100-hour moving average (presently at approx 9814.7) and 200-hour moving average (presently at approx. 9701.5) will be crucial.
The hourly ADX is losing momentum, while hourly RSI and hourly slow stochastic are range bound with bullish bias.
The hourly CCI is in the slightly overbought zone and indicating a neutral to a bullish bias.
The fact that Nifty closed near the highest point of the week, is in itself a bullish sign.

Daily technical:
