Here’s what Shrikant Chouhan of Kotak Securities recommends investors should do with these stocks when the market resumes trading today:
The stock is trading in an Ascending Triangle chart pattern on the daily scale. Moreover, the strong up move on the daily chart suggest that the stock is likely to breakout for further bullish momentum from the current levels.
For positional traders, Rs 670 would be the trend decider level. Trading above the same uptrend formation will continue till Rs 750. However, if it closes below Rs 670, traders may prefer to exit from trading long positions.
After the sharp upward rally, the stock went into the consolidation mode, which resulted in the formation of a Flag chart pattern on weekly scale. The recent formation in the stock is representing a bullish continuation pattern, which is signifying a new leg of up move from the current levels.
For the traders, Rs 830 would be the key support level to watch out. Above which, the uptrend structure should continue until Rs 930.
On the daily scale, the counter is into a rising channel chart formation with a higher low series pattern constantly. The technical indicator like RSI (relative strength index) is also indicating further up trend from current levels which could boost the bullish momentum in coming horizon.
As long as the counter is trading above Rs 101, the uptrend formation is likely to continue. Above which, the counter could move up to Rs 114.
