200 DMA or the 200 Day Moving Average, is an important indicator in technical analysis. The 200 DMA is a long term moving average that helps determine overall strength of an index or a stock. The 200 DMA is generally used as a trend following indicator, which do not predicts market direction, but rather gives an idea about the current direction. Moving average is a lagging indicator, since it is based on past prices of an index or a particular stock.

An index that is trading below its 200 DMA is considered to be in a long term downtrend and when it is above, it is in an uptrend. Whenever the index or a stock trades near these averages, they attract support in a bull market and finds resistance in a bear market. Currently, the 200 DMA of Nifty 50 is around 10800 and Nifty 50  has closed well below this level, indicating bearishness.

Singapore Stock Exchange (SGX) will soon launch trading in Indian stock futures on its platform. The Singapore exchange currently offers trading in Nifty Index Futures, Bank Index and IT Index Futures contracts, which are very popular among overseas investors.




This could be a big blow to domestic derivative markets for reasons mentioned below:

Operational hours: The Indian derivatives markets operate in tandem with the cash markets. But, investors can trade SGX futures round-the-clock. This is an advantage for the investors, especially in the western hemisphere, who find it difficult to trade according to Indian trading hours.
Cost-effective:  SGX doesn’t impose securities transaction tax (STT) and stamp duty, which are levied by India.
SGX is already a key destination for Indian futures among overseas investors. SGX accounts for half of the volumes in the SGX Nifty Futures.
Investors can also trade from the SGX without having a broker or terminal in the exchange.
Advantage SGX!

What exactly is Total Returns Index?
The total returns includes interest, capital gains and dividends realized over a given period of time.  The TRI will help in giving the right picture of the real alpha, a metric which measures what the fund has earned over and above (or below) what was expected.
