Further Technical/practical Observations with charts :
The index has fallen more then 16600 levels which i expected to hold or at least give a bounce. Better part is we were early into the rally with leverage taken at 16600-17k last time which we kept booking at higher levels so such a healthy correction is digestable.
Currently for stock specific actions this is a time to watch and enter/average on turnaround signals. But i would continue to maintain that avoid leverage as volatility can cut traders.
1) Fibonacci Retracements :
In the last few short term uplegs none of them have fallen much below 61% which comes to 16250-16300.
Retracement for the last move from 15.3k the 38% level comes to 16100.
For the total upmove from 8k the 23% retracement comes to 15500.
So ideally one could see bounce from 16100 band or in case we see further downmoves even after that then also 15500 should hold up for the next few weeks.
Move below 15500 opens up a correction of a higher degree.
Trendlines/Averages :
The extreme short term trendline which was at 16600 and a few bottom supports in that zone got broken today and the next important one comes around 16100.
Recent bottom at 16200 is a level to watch for. 200 day moving average comes closer to 15500 which would be the worst case in near term.
Sustaining below 15500 could really open the gates to much lower levels.
