The CMP of 14<sup>th</sup> Jestha is above the Pivot of 15<sup>th</sup> Jestha and the volume is higher than that of last traded volume. Analyzing this we can say that the market might enter into Bullish trend.</p> <p> 2. Observing the candle stick patterns of past days we see the formation of “Morning Star Doji”. Confirmation of the trend reversal is given by today’s pattern.</p> <p> 3. We can analyze that the sellers were not able to drive the price close much lower than the close of the previous period.</p> <p> 4. Choppy trend can be observed these days as we can see the candle sticks are hovering in the same range of 1300 to 1320 which is not exactly giving the sign; either the trend is upward or downward.</p> <p> 5. This may be the time for buyers and sellers to have patience because no actual trend is observed. There is a fluctuation in the market which is uncertain. Risk takers can invest in a suitable stock.</p> <p> 6. The Doji indicates that there is indecision and uncertainty in the market with neither buyers nor sellers able, or willing, to move the price to significant levels, which would indicate a weakness in the current trend and a possible reversal.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-28', 'modified' => '2019-05-28', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10533', 'image' => '20190528034935_n.JPG', 'article_date' => '2019-05-28 00:00:00', 'homepage' => true, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => false, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '22' ) ), (int) 11 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10781', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Arrival of Tourists up but their Stay and Spending Declines', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.', 'content' => '<p> May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.</p> <p> A total of 1.173 million tourists arrived in the country in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018/19 excluding Indian tourists who arrived through road.

The CMP of 14<sup>th</sup> Jestha is above the Pivot of 15<sup>th</sup> Jestha and the volume is higher than that of last traded volume. Analyzing this we can say that the market might enter into Bullish trend.</p> <p> 2. Observing the candle stick patterns of past days we see the formation of “Morning Star Doji”. Confirmation of the trend reversal is given by today’s pattern.</p> <p> 3. We can analyze that the sellers were not able to drive the price close much lower than the close of the previous period.</p> <p> 4. Choppy trend can be observed these days as we can see the candle sticks are hovering in the same range of 1300 to 1320 which is not exactly giving the sign; either the trend is upward or downward.</p> <p> 5. This may be the time for buyers and sellers to have patience because no actual trend is observed. There is a fluctuation in the market which is uncertain. Risk takers can invest in a suitable stock.</p> <p> 6. The Doji indicates that there is indecision and uncertainty in the market with neither buyers nor sellers able, or willing, to move the price to significant levels, which would indicate a weakness in the current trend and a possible reversal.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-28', 'modified' => '2019-05-28', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10533', 'image' => '20190528034935_n.JPG', 'article_date' => '2019-05-28 00:00:00', 'homepage' => true, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => false, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '22' ) ), (int) 11 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10781', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Arrival of Tourists up but their Stay and Spending Declines', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.', 'content' => '<p> May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.</p> <p> A total of 1.173 million tourists arrived in the country in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018/19 excluding Indian tourists who arrived through road.

Showing Sensitive Candle Stick Chart</strong></p> <p> <strong>Analysis: </strong></p> <p> 1. The CMP of 14<sup>th</sup> Jestha is above the Pivot of 15<sup>th</sup> Jestha and the volume is higher than that of last traded volume. Analyzing this we can say that the market might enter into Bullish trend.</p> <p> 2. Observing the candle stick patterns of past days we see the formation of “Morning Star Doji”. Confirmation of the trend reversal is given by today’s pattern.</p> <p> 3. We can analyze that the sellers were not able to drive the price close much lower than the close of the previous period.</p> <p> 4. Choppy trend can be observed these days as we can see the candle sticks are hovering in the same range of 1300 to 1320 which is not exactly giving the sign; either the trend is upward or downward.</p> <p> 5. This may be the time for buyers and sellers to have patience because no actual trend is observed. There is a fluctuation in the market which is uncertain. Risk takers can invest in a suitable stock.</p> <p> 6. The Doji indicates that there is indecision and uncertainty in the market with neither buyers nor sellers able, or willing, to move the price to significant levels, which would indicate a weakness in the current trend and a possible reversal.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-28', 'modified' => '2019-05-28', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10533', 'image' => '20190528034935_n.JPG', 'article_date' => '2019-05-28 00:00:00', 'homepage' => true, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => false, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '22' ) ), (int) 11 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10781', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Arrival of Tourists up but their Stay and Spending Declines', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.', 'content' => '<p> May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.</p> <p> A total of 1.173 million tourists arrived in the country in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018/19 excluding Indian tourists who arrived through road.

However, due to the ineffective implementation of the schemes, the targeted group showed lack of interest.</p> <p> The education loan for youths by keeping their academic certificates as collateral was much appreciated by all quarters. But, only six people obtained the loan.

Only 11 returnees took the loan, according to government records.

Showing Sensitive Candle Stick Chart</strong></p> <p> <strong>Analysis: </strong></p> <p> 1. The CMP of 14<sup>th</sup> Jestha is above the Pivot of 15<sup>th</sup> Jestha and the volume is higher than that of last traded volume. Analyzing this we can say that the market might enter into Bullish trend.</p> <p> 2. Observing the candle stick patterns of past days we see the formation of “Morning Star Doji”. Confirmation of the trend reversal is given by today’s pattern.</p> <p> 3. We can analyze that the sellers were not able to drive the price close much lower than the close of the previous period.</p> <p> 4. Choppy trend can be observed these days as we can see the candle sticks are hovering in the same range of 1300 to 1320 which is not exactly giving the sign; either the trend is upward or downward.</p> <p> 5. This may be the time for buyers and sellers to have patience because no actual trend is observed. There is a fluctuation in the market which is uncertain. Risk takers can invest in a suitable stock.</p> <p> 6. The Doji indicates that there is indecision and uncertainty in the market with neither buyers nor sellers able, or willing, to move the price to significant levels, which would indicate a weakness in the current trend and a possible reversal.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2019-05-28', 'modified' => '2019-05-28', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '10533', 'image' => '20190528034935_n.JPG', 'article_date' => '2019-05-28 00:00:00', 'homepage' => true, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => false, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '22' ) ), (int) 11 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '10781', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'Arrival of Tourists up but their Stay and Spending Declines', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.', 'content' => '<p> May 28: Although Nepal in recent years has been witnessing higher number of tourists’ arrival, the length of their stay and spending have been found to be declining.</p> <p> A total of 1.173 million tourists arrived in the country in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018/19 excluding Indian tourists who arrived through road.
