Infosys closed down with loss of more than 9% on back of Mr. Sikka’s resignation.

On a weekly basis Nifty has made small bullish candlestick pattern after the bearish candlestick formed in last week. In current week prices have protected the prior week’s low of 9685 level, so as long as prices remain above this level weekly bias will remain sideways to positive.

We expected the start of wave c of Triangle pattern however recent down move is suggesting that wave b might be still ongoing. In the past we have observed that “h shaped pattern” worked very well. So there are chances that prices retest the earlier low near 9685 level and post the same it can reverse on upside.
