Market Outlook: What Should Investors Do Tomorrow?
The Nifty lacked follow-through buying on October 03, after having formed a bullish outside bar & an Engulfing bull candle on September 30. It witnessed downside pressure throughout the day & ultimately formed an Inside bar pattern on the daily chart. In terms of the Fibonacci retracement, it retraced nearly 78.6% of Friday’s rise where the key Fibonacci level acted as a support near 16840. The weekly chart shows that the index has once again moved down to retest its key weekly moving averages. The overall structure shows that the index has stepped into a short-term consolidation mode & can see consolidation near 16800-17200. The internal structure shows that a move towards the upper end of the range is likely in the coming sessions.

INR vs USD: Rupee Outlook
We expect Rupee to trade with a negative bias on risk aversion in global markets amid concerns over the financial health of Credit Suisse. Concerns over global economic slowdown may also put downside pressure on Rupee. However, any measures by RBI may prevent sharp fall in Rupee. The rupee may also take cues from India’s trade deficit and US ISM manufacturing PMI data. USDINR spot price is expected to trade in a range of Rs 80.50 to Rs 83 in the next couple of sessions.

Nifty Outlook
We see 16980 and 17100 as critical pivots for the day. Initial trades closer to 17100 will improve confidence in a 17170 breach today, setting off on a 17350 run-up. Alternatively, the inability to float above 16980 would raise the possibilities towards a 16300 plunge. This outcome is less favoured, despite the sharp pull back on Friday, in the closing hour.
