Yesterday, Nifty started the session with gains of more than 100 points. However the index was down nearly 200 points within the first 15 minutes, indicating volatility in the current market. From the day’s low, the index progressed to close near the day’s high on good buying. Most sectoral indices closed higher. Nifty PSU Bank (+2.2%) was the top gainer, followed by Nifty Metal, Media, Realty, and IT, which gained 1.2-1.5%. 
Yesterday, one distribution day expired due to the 25-trading-session rule. The distribution day count has decreased to four. If the market succumbs to selling pressure and breaches its 50-DMA, we may change the market status to an Uptrend Under Pressure. Reducing exposure to stocks breaking below their 21- or 50-DMA on higher volume is important.
