TTML: Reduce weak long positions

In this quarter so far, the stock has rallied over 350 percent, from Rs 35.30 to Rs 189.10 after a sharp surge. Eventually, it faced resistance near 190.

After a four-day price correction, the stock took support near 150 and reversed sharply. It recorded back-to-back lower circuits which indicates that traders preferred to book profits near 190.

We are of the view that the stock is extremely volatile and there is a strong possibility of further downside from current levels.

The level of 180-190 should act as a strong resistance area in the near term on the upside. In case of any pull back rally from current levels, we advise investors to reduce weak trading long positions.

Tech Mahindra: Buy

Tech Mahindra Ltd has formed a higher bottom formation post a short-term correction. On Friday, the stock maintained strong momentum and hit a fresh all-time high of 1735.20 despite tepid market conditions .  

The structure of the chart suggests that there is a strong possibility of a fresh breakout continuation formation that is likely to carry-on, in the near future.  

Unless it is trading below 1670, positional traders must retain an optimistic stance and look for a target 1800. Fresh buying can be considered now or on dips, if any, between 1725 and 1700 levels with a stop loss below 1670.

 

L&T Finance Holding

From the last couple of months, the stock has been forming a lower top formation which is broadly negative for the L&T Finance Holding Ltd.

Recently, the stock witnessed a sharp pullback rally from 72 support level but one more time it failed to sustain above 50-Day SMA.

On the daily chart, the stock has formed a long bearish candle. The sharp price volume activity indicates further weakness from current levels.

We are of the view that as long it is trading below 50-Day SMA the weakness is likely to continue below the same and the correction wave will continue up to 74 to 72 levels.

On the flip side, a fresh uptrend wave is possible only after the dismissal of 83 or 50-Day SMA.
