Thanks Rohan for bringing out this observation. I don't track Nifty 50 stocks for NR7 hence this is the first time that I am coming across this.
My interpretation is -
Following is the range of Nifty of last 7 days..
Code:
13-Aug 129.5
12-Aug 114.4
11-Aug 111.9
10-Aug 162.65
7-Aug 106.7
6-Aug 158.95
5-Aug 88
It is classic case of divergence where index is expanding in range since last 3 days.. but many of its constituents are contracting. That means the few wheels of the train are pulling it in one direction and other wheels are pulling the train in another direction. For the trend or break-out in index to sustain, all components have to be aligned nicely else it raises the question on the strength of the trend. Unfortunately, very few people can see and monitor the internals of the market/index hence get trapped on wrong side in such divergence.
In case of such divergence, any upmove will be weak. You can see the supporting signals of this trend weakness today, as market is finding it difficult to cross 4600.
Many of these stocks should show NR day today as well (50 points range since morning indicates major participants are not interested in trading today). This being a narrow range day and lack of participation from biggies, it is quite vulnerable for false move. Just needs few big orders to make the false move. I won't be surprised by a break-out towards the close which might get reversed on Monday.
Moreover this weeks range is around 256 points so far.. Last 2 weeks also had the range of 250 points.. Giving us 1 week up, next week down, and this week up again. But the range is just 250 points up and down. Typical sign of distribution phase.
Who knows, probably we might be making right shoulder here, We are certainly making an attempt to test the trendline of last upmove from 3920 low (the trendline of upmove from March is already broken and its retest failed when we made second high at 4700). With current divergence between the nifty and its constituents adds as just another factor to be cautious about upmove and trade carefully.
Certainly odds favour the shorts on daily/weekly timeframe.
These are just some of my interpretation. and it is possible that I might read the market wrong. But hope this helps and make you consider few more points in your analysis.
Happy Trading and be cautious at the top.
