Nifty under pressure : US ISM less than forecast : Home sales increase : 4 Dec 2013

Nifty closed below 6200 as investors were unsure or cautious on taking any bets on the index . Volatility increased towards day close as starting tomorrow there will be lots of news on election outcome this week . Analysts are predicting a 300 point swing either ways . I have taken a buy on Nifty @6214 with a strict stop loss of 6050 on daily close . I will close my position around 6400 in case it swings upwards. I have also closed my Sell Put Nifty 5700 Strike December Series @21.75 in profit . I don't want to focus on the poll results and will only be focusing on the reaction of the results this week .
S&P recovered its fall and is back again @1800 mark on news that services sector grew less than expectations . Sales data on new home buyers increased which shows that housing sector has started to revive last 2 quarters . Analysts are also expecting to have better NFP data this Friday and ADP data confirmed that jobs has been added this November . My $UsdChf buy position was under pressure but now as recovered back and i am expecting the dollar to be stronger post NFP release . I am expecting a drop in equities and long on the dollar starting this month into 2014 .
