The US market and Nifty recovered last week. Signals are bullish for the upcoming week. The markets are in crash mode and are likely to continue major breakdowns in 2016 after this oversold bounce that should last till FED day. The critical levels to watch are 1920 (up) and 1880 (down) on the S & P and 7500 (up) and 7400 (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.
