The Indian stock market is in a bearish territory!

Last week was a roller coaster ride for the global as well as Indian equity market where RBI all of a sudden came up with a hawkish stance and announced the repo rate hike leading to shock in the market which fell by 3.5% on the same day.

Markets were waiting for the US FOMC Meeting on the next day followed by the RBI MPC meeting and hoping for not any surprise which can impact the market and that’s what happened, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has raised its key interest rate by 50 basis points with positive commentary lift the down jones to rise 1000 points in a single day.

Let’s take a look at the technical view of the Indian equity market.
