Technical View
What
is happening in PSX is really scary for short term traders and especially those
who only like to go LONG, limited move with thin volumes kept daily traders in
trouble, situation favoring bears for continuing efforts, index tested 42,175 –
42,155 levels as low, some support noticed there but it is not enough to help
much because of the low momentum and weakness in trend, stay alert I see more
selling pressure in coming session by trading below 42,175 – 42,155 and sliding
from here is going to chase 41,735 as an utmost target of the day, before
achieving this target index having couple of good supports too, traders
encourage for analyzing power of bears around all given supports, because
breaking each given support will add aggression in bears and that will help you
in trailing your stop losses.
Do
not see much for bulls in current scenario, so I like to warn traders to stay
safe from a trap, if index notice with any hyper move try planning selling on
strength, the first major resistance is at 42,441 and then around 42,595, both
levels are good for going SHORTS.
