Nikkei Index Chart Analysis
Nikkei Index Technical Analysis
On the daily timeframe the Nikkei: D1 is retracing lower toward the 200-day moving average MA(200) which is flat. We believe the bearish momentum will continue after the price breaches below the lower boundary of Donchian channel at 21700.20. A level below this can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to sell. The stop loss can be placed above 20222.30. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved every day to the next fractal high, following Parabolic signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level (19969.20) without reaching the order (22005.50), we recommend cancelling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account
Fundamental Analysis of Indices - Nikkei Index
Consumer sentiment, industrial output and retail sales rose in Japan. Will the Nikkei rebound resume?
Japanese economic data of the latest week were mixed. Retail sales rose in June, unemployment ticked down, industrial production grew in June, and consumer confidence continued to improve fourth month in a row in July. Thus, retail sales rose 13.1% over month in June after 1.9% growth in May, industrial production rose 2.7% in June after 8.9% drop in May, unemployment slipped to 2.8% from 2.9% in May, and consumer confidence index increased to 29.5 in July, the highest in 4 months, from 28.4 in June. At the same time both construction orders and housing starts declined more in June. Continuing weakness in economic activity is bearish for Nikkei. On the other hand improving data are upside risk for Nikkei.
