Sudeep Shah of SBI Securities is bullish on Indian Hotels Company and Zomato which are both above all key moving averages. "Indian Hotels is trading near all-time high levels, and momentum-based indicators are suggesting strong bullish momentum in the stock," he reasoned.
According to him, Zomato has formed a strong base near its 100-day EMA level and witnessed a smart rebound. Further, it has surged above its 20 and 50-day EMA level. These averages have started edging higher, which is a bullish sign, he said.
The BSE Sensex is currently trading near its 200-day EMA level. "The momentum indicators and oscillators also suggest strong bearish momentum in the index. Hence, any sustainable move below the 200-day EMA zone of 77,400-77,300 will lead to sharp correction in the index," said Shah, the Head of Technical and Derivative Research at SBI Securities, who has over 17 years of experience.
Is there any possibility of a breakdown in Eicher Motors, which has been into consolidation since June?
No, we don’t see any possibility of a breakdown in Eicher Motors as the major trend of the stock is bullish. Also, it is strongly outperforming Nifty and Nifty Auto. Most noteworthy, the technical indicators are portraying a bullish picture.
Going ahead, any sustainable move above the level of Rs 5,020 will lead to downward sloping trendline breakout in the stock. In that case, it is likely to witness a sharp upside rally upto the level of Rs 5,200 in the short term.
Do you see the relentless selling pressure continuing in Hindustan Unilever as it is already down more than 600 rupees from record high levels?
Yes, the stock is in a strong downtrend, trading below both short-term and long-term moving averages on the daily chart. It's currently 8 percent below its 200-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average), signaling increased bearish momentum. The daily RSI (Relative Strength Index) is in the deeply bearish zone, according to RSI range shift rules. Notably, the weekly RSI has dropped below 40 for the first time since April 2024.
Therefore, the stock is likely to continue its downward move and could test the Rs 2,200 level in the short term. On the upside, the Rs 2,450-2,460 zone will act as a key resistance for the stock.
Will the Bank Nifty manage to hold 50-week EMA in the November series?
Last week, the banking benchmark index Bank Nifty has given a 5-week consolidation breakdown. In addition, it has formed a sizeable bearish candle on a breakdown week, which adds more bearishness. This breakdown indicates a deepening bearish trend, suggesting further downside pressure in the near term.
Among the constituents of the index, all constituent stocks are trading below their 20-day EMA, over 90 percent are below their 50-day EMA, and more than 75 percent are below their 100-day EMA, highlighting widespread weakness across the sector.
The index is currently hovering around its crucial 200-day EMA support level, making the next 2-3 trading sessions pivotal for determining its near-term direction.
Talking about crucial levels, the zone of 49,500-49,400 will act as immediate support for the index as prior swing low is placed in that region. Any sustainable move below the level of 49,400 will lead to further correction in the index. In that case, the index is likely to test the level of 48,800, followed by 48,300 in the short term. On the upside, the zone of 50,700-50,800 will act as an immediate hurdle for the index.
