Lets try an assessment of the NIFTY and the BN after the budget.

1. NIFTY is @ 50WSMA and between -0.5 to -1.0 SD on the BB.

2. BN is also the same. Just a smidge below the 50WSMA and between -0.5 to -1.0 SD on the BB.

3. On the Monthly charts, both indices are at +1 SD BB.

4.
In only 5 / 19 instances did this two week bottom hold in the MT.

In the remaining 14 instances, the fall continued (red candles) for
3 weeks - thrice
4 week - twice
5 weeks - 8 times
9 weeks - once.

5. In only 5 / 19 instances did this two week bottom hold in the MT. In the remaining 4 instances, the fall continued (red candles) for 3 weeks - thrice 4 week - twice 5 weeks - 8 times 9 weeks - once.

6. The absolute bottom in terms of MAs was made at

20WSMA - Once
50WSMA - Four Times
100WSMA - 5 times
200WSMA - 6 times
below 200WSMA - twice

7. As of today, the 100WSMA for the NIFTY is @ 11200 and the 200WSMA is @ 10200.

In terms of the SD, the bottom was made @
-1SD - 4 times
-2SD - 3 times
-2.5SD - 3 times &
-3SD or beyond - 8 times

9. In 7/19 instances, the biggest red candle didn't even happen in the first two weeks.

In 9/19 instances, the "correction" resulted in atleast 3 negative months.

In 6/19 instances, the trigger for the correction was the budget.

10. Next, lets take a quick look at the BN
1. Unlike the NIFTY, this is 5th week of a fall in the BN with 4 of them being red candles.
2. In these 5 weeks, it has fallen 8.72%.

If we look at the swing high to low moves in the BN (from 2008), then we come up with 17 instances.

11. These 17 instances can be divided into 3 time and price destruction buckets:
1. 5 to 6 weeks - 5 instances with an average fall of ~14%
2. 8 to 9 weeks - 10 instances with price fall between 14% - 23% (grouped around 14% or 21%ish)
3. ~15 weeks - 3 instances.


12. From a MA perspective, a correction in the BN has halted around these levels only 3/17 times. From a SD perspective on the monthly charts 3 times it has halted near the +1SD.

Thus the Current move in BN & the NIFTY is a little "light" from a price destruction perspective.

13. Having said that, looking at the data for the NIFTY & the BN, I still hold on to my LT (12 months or so) prediction of ~14K on the NIFTY & 38K - 40K on the BN.

In the ST, there is a 30% - 40% chance we have made a bottom or are within 1% - 2% of bottom (wish I could time it!)

14. There is a slightly higher probability that we see the fall continue for the next 2 - 3 weeks & reach close to ~11300 on the NIFTY.

The worst case scenario, in which my LT prediction is belied, is a fall to 200WSMA near 10200 - 10300. This would be a very low probability (IMO).

15. A quick analysis of the top few index heavyweights:
1. Reliance - Close to support but will move along with the NIFTY. Potential downside target is 1220ish.

2. HDFC Bank - Good chance is done with the fall here. 50WSMA & -2 SD.

3. HDFC - Also good chance is done with ~2150 to 2170 as the potential target on the downside.

4. ICICI Bank - Can go down to 470 - 480ish range levels.

5. SBIN - A good chance it holds 292 - 300 in the ST.

6. Axis Bank - Difficult to say.

7. ITC - Overdone in the very ST. In a few weeks or months can go down to 180 - 190 esp. if we don't see a solid reversal here.

8. INFY - Consolidation with a minor upside.

9. TCS - Seems to be in permanent consolidation.

10. Bajaj Finance - Trends that dreams are made of.

11. Kotak Bank - Probably consolidating but am not sure here.

12. Maruti - Consolidating between 20WSMA & 50WSMA #Disclaimer - Bought calls on Saturday.

13. LT - Doesn't look good. 1200 is a distinct possibility here.
 
@timepass - more information on how I trade with indicators:

In the image above you would notice numbers 1,2,3 & also -1. In this chart, the positive numbers mark trades that were taken when the price closed 1SD above the Moving Avg & those trades which did not hit the stop of 1 SD below the MA at the entry price.
The -1 indicates the trade where the stop was hit for the day. Now, you would notice that this parameter setting (20 min candles and BB 20,1) gives 5 trades in a week with 1 trade hitting the SL for this particular stock.


The choice of indicators & their parameters are dependent on how one slices the data available and how one sees the max. probability of winning with the given data set.

Hope this clarifies!
