After witnessing a Doji Candle range in the previous week, Nifty has witnessed a rangebound action this week. On the daily charts, the index is hovering around the 200-days SMA (simple moving average - 17,219).
The index has formed a double bottom in the 16,850-16,900 zone and this level would act as a major support on the downside.
On the higher side, the index has resistance in the zone of 17,400-17,450 which is the previous week high and the 20 days SMA (17,441).
The RSI (relative strength index) indicator on both daily and weekly timeframe is hovering around the 50 mark and giving neutral signals.
We expect the index to continue trading in the range of 16,800-17,450 and only a break on either side will lead to a directional move.
Here are three buy calls for next 2-3 weeks:
Godrej Agrovet: Buy | LTP: Rs 570 | Stop-Loss: Rs 525 | Target: Rs 665 | Return: 17 percent
In the recent correction from the highs of Rs 746, Godrej Agrovet took support at its 61.8 percent Fibonacci retracement level (Rs 450).
In Thursday's session the stock gave a breakout backed with strong volumes and closed at 5 months high level. Further it saw the highest volume in past 10 months which indicates the strength of the breakout.
