NIFTY - Inverse H & S in the making ???

Nice rally in Nifty today.

It has closed positively at 3148 indicating a break out on the closing price chart (line chart).

But what is interesting to note is the pattern being formed on the daily chart - an inverse head and shoulder reversal pattern. This is a pattern which has the potential to 'reverse' the down trend.




The neckline seems to be near 3175 above which one should expect further up moves - initially to 3325 and then beyond 3500. (Phew !!)

Moreover I expect the 'speed' of the rise to be faster since the Nifty has taken only a small retracement to the 38.20% level. ( You may refer my book for more discussions on retracement analysis and speed of a move)

While most news reports / analysts keep indicting us about the bad news ; the market wants to rise . I presume once again, the market is discounting the future - as usually it does!

Happy trading

Dear Sir,

Does yesterday's fall change the Inverse H&S pattern and falter the upside potential it has.

Your views please..

Thanks & Best REgards

The recent fall would negate the inverse H & S only if 2640 is broken.

Today's fall suggest that the rise after the break out of the neckline (when it happens) would not be fast but rather a slower rise.
