Market Forecast for week ahead:
  • From last 2 weeks STI shrinks its previous 4 weeks gain which is really a weak sign. STI fell below its 78.6% Retracement level this week.
  • STI formed a candlestick pattern called “Bearish Three Outside Down” After an established uptrend a clear bearish Engulfing pattern occurs one green candle and a second bear move that drives price below the prior day low and closes near the bottom of the range.
  • The third day is a red day with an even lower close than the second day. In a market characterized by uptrend, day-twos red candle close completely below day-one, engulfing it completely. The first two days are a classic pattern that suggests a sell-off has taken over the market and is breaking the established trend. This bearish reversal is confirmed by a still lower day on day-three.

  • As we previously mention that STI trading well above its 78.6% retracement level i.e. 3373.23 marks, but in this week STI took support near to this level @ 3382.82 mark so for coming days 3373.23 mark will act as a major support area on the other side above this level next milestone comes @ 3908 mark which is far away from current level. Between this we can see long consolidation phrase as well.
  • STI formed a candlestick pattern called “Black Engulfing” is characterized by a large black body engulfing a preceding smaller white body, which appears during an uptrend.

It looks as if there’s going to be more bullish trading, however the uptrend loses momentum and the bears take the lead during the day. The selling pressure overcomes buying and finally the market closes below the open of the previous day. The uptrend is damaged.
STI Resistance:
  • STI having Resistance @ 3440 and above this level it may take resistance from 3470-3500 levels.

STI Market Intraday Outlook:

This pattern often signals a reverse in investor sentiment from bullish to bearish. However, the bearish belt hold is not considered very reliable as it occurs frequently and is often incorrect in predicting future share prices. As with any other candlestick charting method, more than two days of trading should be considered when making predictions about trends.

Even though the session opened and closed with little change, prices moved significantly higher and lower in the meantime. Neither buyers nor sellers could gain the upper hand and the result was a standoff. After a long advance or long white candlestick, a high wave spinning top indicates weakness among the bulls and a potential change or interruption in trend.

Now STI trading well above its 78.6% retracement level i.e. 3373.23 marks, and above this level next milestone comes @ 3908 mark which is far away from current level. Between this we can see long consolidation phrase as well.

Today STI formed a candlestick pattern called the high wave candlestick .This candlestick has a tiny white body with upper and lower shadows that have a greater length than the body. It is accepted as a type of Doji, and will act as a Doji when it appears.

The market moves higher and then sharply lower, or vice versa. It then closes above the opening price creating a tiny white body. This represents complete indecision between the bulls and the bears. The actual length of the shadows is not important. The small body relative to the shadows is what makes the spinning top.
