A Chartical Observation
The chart below shows the indexed (Both indices marked to 100=January 2015) movement of the NSE Midcap 100 Index (Red Line) alongwith another index (Blue Line).
The peaks and troughs in both are fairly similar and so are the drops and rises – exhibiting a sharp correlation between both as is evident. Even the 200 DMA (Days Moving Average) line has similar curvature.
Knowing which index to track may then give additional information to traders in the future as to critical junctures or turns.
