Nifty now in Positive Trend
The long term trend chart of the S&P CNX Nifty Index (CNXNFTY-IN) recently broke through the negative trendline, shifting the trend back to positive.

Nifty BeES "Buzzing" above Support
During the recent market correction in August, the Nifty BeES ETF fell from the 580 level to 490. Interestingly enough, the Nifty BeES managed to find support at 490 as it did not penetrated this leve. As it turns out, 490 was where it bottomed back in May 2010, making it an important support level. So, going forward, we would look to use 490 as a critical level for the Nifty BeES. If it breaks...

Bombay Stock Exchange 500 Index
The long term trend on the BSE 500 is up. Remain bullish. On a statistical basis, the index is between a trading range of 6600 and 7600. The BSE 500 is statistically normal at 7100. At this point there is little danger of a strong down move, but stock selection is still paramount to success in trading. Many times the market simply pulls stocks up in its wake.
