Here's what Shrikant Chouhan of Kotak Securities recommends investors should do with these stocks when the market resumes trading today:
In this quarter so far, the stock rallied over 20 percent. Technically, after a Rs 2,985 resistance breakout the stock consistently holding higher bottom formation. A promising higher bottom formation on intraday and daily charts and incremental volume activity indicating continuation of uptrend in the near future.
However, due to temporary overbought conditions, we could see rangebound activity in the short run. Hence, buying on correction and sell on rallies could be the ideal strategy for the short term traders.
In the near future, Rs 3,100 and Rs 3,050 could act as a key support zones whereas Rs 3,300-Rs 3,350 would be the key resistance zone. Below Rs 3,050, traders may prefer to exit from the trading long positions.
After a medium term correction, eventually the stock took the support near Rs 800 and reversed. Post reversal, the stock has formed higher bottom formation and after a long time it succeed to close above 20-day SMA (simple moving average).
A higher bottom formation on daily and intraday charts and long bullish candle on daily charts indicating continuation of uptrend in the near future.
Unless it is trading below Rs 819, positional traders retain an optimistic stance and look for a target Rs 880-900. Fresh buying can be considered now and on dips, if any between Rs 840 and Rs 830 levels, with a stop-loss below Rs 819.

On weekly scale, post sharp decline from the higher levels, the counter is in the accumulation zone where it is trading in a rangebound mode. However, on the daily charts there is a gradual up move in the counter along with incremental volume activity, which suggest a new leg of bullish trend in the near term.
Unless it is trading below Rs 360, positional traders can retain an optimistic stance and look for a target Rs 390-400.
