Anuj: Technically heading into next week do you think a breakout is imminent for the Nifty and what would be your stop loss and target for any kind of Nifty trade now?
A: This is a clear breakout. It has broken that December 23 high of 8365 and it has started making higher tops and higher bottoms. You can see on the daily charts. So, I think Nifty has potential to test its all time high of 8625 now. So, even at current levels one can go long with a stop loss of 8280.
Anuj: What stock or stocks would lead the Nifty there?
A: Definitely banking stocks. So, if you see private banking especially ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank both stocks are looking very strong on the charts. ICICI Bank has given a clear breakout on the charts. One can buy ICICI Bank at current levels, keep a stop loss at Rs 355. The stock has potential to test Rs 400 in next one or two months.
Senthil: We are closing at the highs of the day. I know you have already struck very bullish noises but does the action of the last few minutes change anything for you on the positive?
A: Definitely the markets are positive. It is a clear breakout. If you see the longer period of time say around 2-3 months time I think Nifty has potential to break its all time high of 8625 also and it can come up to around 8750. So, any dip is a great buying opportunity.
