Best intraday stocks to watch out for on 16-May-2023

Nifty closed above the prior day's high. 

Though the Nifty witnessed some profit booking in the late session, it closed above the first hour's range. Interestingly, the India VIX also rose by 2.22%. Volumes were lower than the previous day. Going forward, a close below Monday's low of 18287, will be negative for the direction. At the swing, high, with a slow momentum, and low VIX are not a good sign. A sustained low VIX period for a longer period hint at some challenges for the bulls. Even on the bullish closings, the Elder impulse system has formed another neutral bar. The upper Bollinger band shows an extension of the trend and expect a consolidation. The MACD line is not showing any increase in momentum. The Nifty closed at the highest level after December 20, 2022. 

During the current upswing, many bearish patterns and signals failed to get confirmations. This time too, only on confirmation of reversal, we assume that the index has made an intermediate high. Until then, be with a positive bias. As mentioned earlier, a close below the prior bar low will be the first sign of weakness. Only a close below 18055, which is a minor low, is an indication of a trend reversal. Stay cautious and maintain strict stop losses.
