Rajani has recommended two stock to buy for short-term. Here's what he expects from Indian stock market next week, along with his stock recommendations.
Market Views - Vinay Rajani, Senior Technical and Derivative Analyst, HDFC Securities Nifty 50
Last week, the Nifty 50 lost 1.22% and closed below its 20 days SMA placed at 25,265. Nifty 50 has violated the support of its upward-sloping trendline, which connects previous swing highs of 25,116 and 25,222. The next crucial support is now seen near 25,000, 50-day Exponential Moving Average which also coincides with the lower trendline of a rising wedge pattern on the daily chart.
A decisive close below 25000 could trigger momentum selling, potentially dragging the Nifty 50 towards a positional support of 24,500. The recent swing high of 25,549 is not expected to act as strong resistance, and caution is advised unless this level is decisively breached. Bearish signals from indicators and oscillators like MACD and RSI on the daily chart further suggest potential weakness.

Bank Nifty
Similarly, Bank Nifty is also trading within a rising wedge pattern on its daily chart, with the lower trendline of the wedge placed at 56,600 in the spot market. A close below this level would signal a fresh breakdown, potentially pushing the index towards supports at 55,900 and 55,150.
Broader market indices also show signs of weakness; the NSE500 index has violated multiple trendlines and its 20-day DMA on a closing basis. Both Nifty Midcap100 and Smallcap100 indices have confirmed a 'Doji'; reversal pattern after a prolonged uptrend on their weekly charts, with a subsequent bear candle reinforcing this bearish reversal.
On the global front, after a bullish breakout on positional charts, the MSCI Emerging Market index has formed a 'Doji' candlestick, which could lead to a 'throwback'; fall towards its previous breakout point. Conversely, the Dollar Index, after a prolonged downtrend, has formed a 'Doji'; candle followed by a bullish candle on its weekly chart, signaling a potential bullish reversal.
Given the negative correlation between the Dollar and Emerging Market equities, this suggests a possible downward movement in emerging markets and an upward trajectory for the Dollar Index from current levels.
Nifty 50 Strategy : Short term Trend of Nifty 50 has turned weak. Recent swing high of 25,550 should be surpassed to negate the further downside. Momentum selling may emerge below the crucial support of 25,000 in Nifty 50, which could drag the index further towards positional support of 24,500.
Traders should cut longs and go short below 25,000 in Nifty 50 for the downside target of 24,500, keeping stoploss at 25,350.
