Hot Stocks | 'Bet on Nalco, Heidelberg for double-digit returns in short term'

Benchmark index Nifty witnessed sharp V-shape reversal rally since global tension started to fizzle out.

The index has successfully negated its bearish pattern set up on the daily time frame and reclaimed its all-time high level in January 15's trading session.

Whenever we find the failure of a bearish pattern, a strong positive surge is expected in the coming sessions.

Nifty Midcap100 index continues to be a special attraction that has registered 6 straight days' positive closing. The index is currently outperforming the benchmark index in all time frames and is further expected to outperform in the near future also.

Auto and metal index will continue to be in the limelight and both the indices have given bullish breakout on higher time frames.

Nifty is sustaining above its 20, 50 and 100-days simple moving average on the daily time frame. Daily RSI (14) is reading near 60 levels with a positive crossover which is positive for the near future.

However, looking at the recent movement, volatility will be at its peak as Nifty is trading in uncharted territory, so trading with proper stop loss is advisable.

Drift below 12,100 may see a further correction or an extended selling till 11,900 in the coming trading session.

Going forward, any uptick in Nifty can get capped near its next resistance zone of 12,514-12,600 which is supported by Fibonacci ratio.
