40% rally was a bit of a technical pullback - Focus Shifting to Economy!

On wednesday Indian Markets movement were inline with HBJ Capital's expectation. One can expect further weakning and profit booking along with fresh short buildups.

Profit-booking by traders wiped out the morning gains and sent the benchmark indices into the red on Wednesday. The Nifty closed below the 3,000-mark from the day’s high of 3,240, while the Nifty November futures ended at a discount to the spot market after hitting the day’s high of 3,299. It was indicated that the Nifty has stiff resistance above 3,200. However, the index could move up to 3,300.

Wall Street stopped to catch its breath Wednesday,cashing in gains from a rally that lifted the Standard & Poor's 500 index more than 18 percent over six sessions. Stocks showed little change after a report that the U.S. services sector contracted sharply in October.

What should a trader do now?
Buy PUT Option or SHORT Nifty Future. In case if you already have such position, then just hold it.
