The Nifty gained for the third day in a row on April 1, the first trading session of new fiscal year 2024-25. The benchmark index made an all-time high of 22,529.95 and finally ended the day with the gains of 135 points at 22,462. Broader market indices rose more than the Nifty as the advance-decline ratio improved dramatically to 4.86:1 for the BSE, highest in 13 years since April 4, 2011.
The short-term trend in the NSE bellwether is positive as the Nifty is placed above its important short-term and medium-term moving averages. Momentum indicators and oscillators show strength in the current uptrend.
In the Option segment, we have seen aggressive Put writing at the 22,000-22,200 levels. This level coincides with the 11-day and 20-day EMA (exponential moving average) which are placed at 22,176 and 22,145. Therefore, on the downside, the 22,000-22,200 levels would act as a strong support.
Traders are advised to accumulate longs in the Nifty with a stop-loss of 22,000 on a closing basis. On the higher side, we expect the index to reach 22,800-23,000 levels in the coming weeks.
The broad market indices like NSE Midcap 100 and Smallcap 100 have formed higher bottom reversals. The recent downward corrections seem to have ended and the sharp upside bounce could be in store for the coming weeks. It’s time to accumulate selective midcap and smallcap stocks for a reasonable upside for the coming month.
Here are three buy calls for the next 3-4 weeks:
Power Mech Projects: Buy | LTP: Rs 5,265 | Stop-Loss: Rs 4,900 | Target: Rs 5,660, 5,800 | Return: 10 percent
