10. Following Insight should be kept in mind while trading the Next Week -

- Trend is firmly down.

- Daily Indicators have given no sign of reversal and may remain be in oversold zone for sometime more, so don't jump to buy and hold any technical bounce due to Hourly oversold charts.

- The Resistances for any bounce indicated by 5d Volume Profiles are at 5420 (Also apprx. 5Wlema), 5450, 5485 levels. The reaction at these levels will indicate the quality of bounce and further trade.

- Short term reversal will be indicated by close above the High Volume node of 5485 in 10d chart ,which also will come near apprx. Bollinger Band mid of 20sma in Daily chart and 5Wema. Positional buying in small quantity only above this level.

Short positions can be build up in bounce near the Resistances with SAR of 5485 for good risk -reward.
