Stocks to buy: 5 short-term trading ideas by experts for 22 December 2022

Indian market opened on a firm note on Thursday, tracking positive global cues.

S&P BSE Sensex declined more than 600 points while Nifty50 closed below 18,200 on Wednesday.

Indian equity market witnessed a sharp fall in line with global peers on Wednesday amid fresh COVID worries. The healthcare sector came into the limelight while covid averse sectors were under pain today.

Nifty50 rejected the 9-DMA and saw a rapid decline, however, it was able to hold the 50-DMA of 18,144 which is a positive sign for the bulls.

Despite the fall seen in Nifty50 for the past two trading sessions, it is still a good buy on the dips market where 18,000 will provide immediate support, said analysts.

“On the downside, the area between 18,133 and 18,080 represents a significant demand zone. As long as Nifty trades above 18,080, the general bullish texture will hold, but below 18,080, we can anticipate a short-term trend reversal,” Santosh Meena, Head of Research, Swastika Investmart Ltd., said.

The 20-DMA of 18,550 is a significant barrier on the upside, while 18,440 is an immediate barrier, he said.

Meena further added that to reverse the bearish scenario, Nifty needs to break through this level. Bulls will anticipate a short covering move since the put/call ratio is oversold.

Bank Nifty has slipped below the 20-DMA on Wednesday, wherein 42,200-42,000 is an immediate and critical support zone.
