Indices saw a decisive sell-off right from resistance and profit booking makes sense in the present hour. If the market continues to decline, it can be a good time to find weak counters for the short term and make some good profit.

Trendlines have been offering perfect support and resistance to the counter in the last 2 yrs. Recently, prices have reached resistance and are facing rejection. This rejection is also from the previous high. The price has been witnessing rejection for the last five weeks, making the present zone a strong resistance. A couple of shooting stars are adding to more bearish confidence. The set-up is just perfect for initiating a bearish position with favourable risk-reward.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Weekly-Fibonacci\"><\/span><strong>Weekly: Fibonacci<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/lH_W_aYCHJXXqgRIz_jBP3O_lp95YWbwZQn2yDOJKKvhoWNETSvgiVlNeB4FiQfosHcZpp7niDEq5vBQH1ks4Ui1lA2aKzCyYWtpLNycbFAKWMF7-HtNJdqTrwILFQ2X-iuEISMNOXPVTiVJfZxv3A\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>From the peak of 2018 &#8211; 2019, the decline emerged and bottomed during 2020. From the bottom, the bounce is seen now. The reverse Fibonacci is applied on the same to check the resistance levels. The recent top is formed right near 88.6%, and rejection has been strong for a long time, making it a valid resistance zone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Weekly-RSI-and-MACD\"><\/span><strong>Weekly: RSI and MACD<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/khexAjs6sLJQachK2KlzE4P0PkOduV2gUDpMxmczjcCurbNJ46Sl2D-YkKpkrx_LBbY73SIVYlN1LxQAHlS3IDml19TTq2f7JS6RzvJw2m7U0938p29GPCdo8x478ZBBXb5LETRnOcDXbRzsl8MxLg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickertape.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index\/\">RSI<\/a> is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickertape.in\/blog\/momentum-indicator\/\">momentum indicator<\/a>. It helps to understand the strength and momentum of the counter. It is very clear that the price is making a higher top, and RSI is making a lower top, creating bearish divergence for the counter.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickertape.in\/blog\/moving-average-convergence-divergence\/\">MACD<\/a> is a lagging indicator and is used to check divergences and the emergence of the trend. Again, with price making higher tops, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickertape.in\/blog\/moving-average-convergence-divergence\/\">MACD<\/a> is making a lower top and highlighting the perfect bearish divergence just like RSI. It is adding more conviction to the bearish view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Daily-Price-action\"><\/span><strong>Daily: Price action<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/8WQCMRTyKoBkE5vNfdO0K1El0bbf3oxsm_TnCXTw7kxN1HzfF616C9sreywRKmrBV_Efa3RpZrcjzqAwXkMRIdxMR4aAf5U-ZrhAICiqy66TUecsWC3FLinz6rSTakLApwRknvID2VEd8SAAae6aew\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In the entire rally from the low, the volume participation was moderate. In fact, when the price made a top above the previous high, the volumes were almost near to average, making it a bullish trap. The formation on the price action of the daily timeframe chart is rising, expanding wedge near the previous high, making it a perfect bearish formation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Daily-RSI\"><\/span><strong>Daily: RSI<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/nn8uO7YwYdhhEcp2Xs_Yx-_FH4ox-zwudTFCZ0NpKtMnSFH7H9iUfC1j2G3OH2PrkEJEAUlbcHTl0tptxlkzjIp8cR2RePV1oYyRvEEraHdn0Ip6figAyJVBhLdRSrjoJTqQy9uE5Os1x5i68Z5gug\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The weekly price action showed bearish divergence. Its immediate lower timeframe daily chart also reflects the same. RSI is also clearly downward sloping and falling below 50, indicating more weakness likely to creep in.

Recently, the Nifty decline was exceptional when Maruti remained muted. But again, after making the recent bottom, price action on the Ratio chart bounced and confirmed outperformance of Nifty over Maruti is likely.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Daily-Ratio-Chart-Maruti-vs-Nifty\"><\/span><strong>Daily Ratio Chart: Maruti v\/s Nifty<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/VDC-WN2ywEun1qP5_aZxHjnbxmMNZdZRYTmsPUppOdx8ldKhtKrVfvt5SLu196W5juMM4Mo5eUBiWkcbu7Es_k-24byyGSjGaKiB1-o4xwlHGmFBTBef3FNL_gwQC9LcZZHkOgQLVTJx4amLenup8w\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>On a daily timeframe, the trend continued until the recent breakdown and retesting the same.

The rising and expanding wedge on the daily timeframe chart with bearish RSI Divergence, RSI pointing downward below 50 and with bearish MACD divergence with MACD crossover, reflects the same. The ratio chart of Nifty and Maruti daily and the weekly chart also supports weakness going forward.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that a bearish view can be valid for short-term to mid-term to positional-term and needs regular review.
