The Sand P 500 fell and the Nifty rallied last week. Signals are bearish for the upcoming week. The Vix is suggesting complacency and the break down in transports is flashing warning signs. The markets are breaking down from resistance and are likely to continue major breakdowns in 2016 as the recent rally appears to have concluded. A big move is imminent.  The critical levels to watch are 2060 (up) and 2040 (down) on the S & P and 7850 (up) and 7750 (down) on the Nifty. A significant breach of the above levels could trigger the next big move in the above markets. You can check out last week’s report for a comparison.
