Look at the Broader market volatility, the Higher volatility will be favor to short seller as well as the lower volatility will be favor to Long- position. The volatility Index (VIX) if goes above 15 level, it could be unfavor to Buying the stocks, however, short sellers can succeed  during increasing of volatility.

The benchmark Nifty when trading above the 20 Days Moving average, that means the market is bullish, there will not worry about slight correction of the market, traders may hold their position until they reach its target, but the condition is that they select a strong sector in which they have strong stocks. 


If the Nifty is trading below 200 DMA ( Daily moving average) that means the market has lost its grip where bearers would be dominants in the market, so, traders may take a short position, the broader market or individual stock when break below its support level, or when hit the resistance level,

For example, if Inflation rate is below 6 percent, the inflation data will not draw the attention of the Market participants, at the same time, the increase of crude oil prices, and inflation when it moves beyond the 6 percent level, while the market will be keen on Inflation data.


Likewise, RBI monetary policy might be more important thing during higher inflation period, 

Conversely, in the time of  low inflation, the arrival of policy  will not affect the stock prices. 


IIP data, which might impact on Mining and manufacturing companies, even moderate improvements of IIP would push the stock prices during the Bull market as well as subsequent positive data would help to recover when the stock market is being down trend, 


GDP data, which data releases at three months once, this data should be highly focused on all range of the market participants, it is crucial for the market, this projection number is higher, that means the common stocks could move positive direction before come actual data, perhaps, this number beats market expectation, positive trend would continue. 

Suppose, GDP number does not meet the market expectation, absolutely it is bad news for the market, traders should wait at the moment until they get a clear direction of the market movement. 


Auto sales data would affect Auto stock prices, 1st day of every month, press released to the market, in which sector stocks usually be more fluctuation, before and after come to the market, 


Increasing the crude oil price is bad news for the market, because 80 percent of oil is imported from other nations, and contributes 25 percent of our import bill. Hiring the oil prices would push up the prices, some industries are using crude oil and its substances as a raw material. For example, Paint industry” s Raw material come from petroleum products, soaring of oil prices push down the paint stocks, whenever, oil price crossed above the 100 Dollar marks, recession has flowed that,

Falling oil prices are good news for the market, and spiking up the oil prices bad news for the market.

So, positive and negative estimates , after coming out actual data, sometimes the market could react differently. .
