Technical Analysis – A clear blue sky for the markets

By VK Sharma

The Nifty touched an all-time high of 21,492 on Friday. The benchmark rose for the seventh week on the trot. During the calendar year, the Nifty has gained 18.51%, of which 14% has come only in the last seven weeks.

So where do we go from here?

The monthly chart of the Nifty gives a clear direction as to where we are headed in the long term — up. Since we are at an all-time high level, we will have to depend on the Fibonacci extensions for an answer. The chart shows you the swings in the Nifty, and the 100% Fibonacci extension of the moves gives us a target of 22,131, a level that we have spoken about in the past, in this column. That target is not the last word. It is a mere number on the road ahead.
