4,842 is now a crucial support:
``While the indices closed with sharp cuts on weekly basis, an encouraging formation has emerged on the daily chart called `positive divergence`. On last Wednesday, when Nifty closed at 4,919, way below the previous closing bottom of 5,018 made on May 7, the RSI did not make a new low and in fact made a higher bottom. Subsequently, on Friday, while the benchmark plunged all the way to 4,842 intraday, it rebounded sharply to close at 4,931, higher than the Wednesday`s close with RSI too closing above Wednesday`s level. This is very encouraging sign and raises the hopes of bottom being formed around current levels. While a follow up action is required by the benchmark in terms of making a higher-top higher-bottom formation to take an outright bullish view on the market, it is certainly advisable to book profits in short positions. Even long position can be considered with a stop loss of 4,842, the weekly low made on Friday. On the upside, a sustained trading above 4,980 can take the Nifty to about 5,100. On the downside, 4,842 is now a crucial support, as a major trend line support connecting bottoms of November 2009 and February 2010, exists there.
