Here's what Shrikant Chouhan of Kotak Securities recommends investors should do with these stocks when the market resumes trading today:
After the remarkable uptick of the last few weeks, the stock witnessed short-term correction. However, on daily charts, the counter has reversed its trend from its important retracement zone. The formation suggests a revival of the uptrend from the current levels.
For the traders, Rs 575 would be the key support level to watch out. Above which, the uptrend structure should continue until Rs 640.
After the sharp upward rally, the stock went into the consolidation mode, which resulted in the formation of a Flag chart pattern on the weekly scale. The recent breakout in the stock is representing a bullish continuation pattern, which is signifying a new leg of upward movement from the current levels.
For positional traders, Rs 2,005 would be the trend decider level. Trading above the same uptrend formation will continue till Rs 2,230. However, if it closes below Rs 2,005 traders may prefer to exit from trading long positions.
The stock has given a breakout of its Ascending Triangle chart pattern with a strong bullish candlestick. Additionally, on the daily charts, it has formed a higher-bottom formation, hence the structure of the stock indicates the beginning of a new uptrend from the current levels.
Unless it is trading below Rs 440, positional traders can retain an optimistic stance and look for a target of Rs 490.
