Here's what Ruchit Jain of 5paisa.com recommends investors should do with these stocks when the market resumes trading today:
The stock had recently seen a sharp price wise correction backed with higher volumes. The momentum readings were in oversold zone which led to an up-move in the stock in Tuesday’s session.
Considering limited historical data, it is difficult to gauge the trend for the stock but traders should wait for formation of a higher top higher bottom structure for a confirmation of potential uptrend. Till then, one can look to avoid the stock.
The immediate supports for the stock would be seen around Rs 340.
If we look at the recent data on charts, the price up-moves in last four months have been supported by good volumes while in between corrections were just retracements of the previous up-moves where volumes were quite low. This indicates buying interest in the stock and hence, it seems that recent correction in the stock has been seen as buying opportunities.
The stock has potential to rally towards its previous swing highs of Rs 130 in the near term and hence traders should look to trade with a positive bias. The immediate support for the stock is now placed around Rs 108.
The PSU stocks have seen a good buying interest off late and this stock has formed a ‘Higher Top Higher Bottom’ formation and has even surpassed its previous swing high resistance.
The volumes along with the price upmove are good while the RSI (relative strength index) oscillator is indicating a positive momentum.
Thus, traders can look to trade with a positive bias as prices have potential to continue this rally towards Rs 200 in the near term. The immediate support for the stock is placed around Rs 173.
