Technical View

Mantri highlights that the technical indicators are exhibiting bullish signs, and the positive momentum is likely to continue in the coming sessions based on the recent price and volume action.

A covered call strategy involves holding a long position in a stock and selling call options on the same stock to generate additional income from the premiums. This strategy is used when the investor expects the stock price to remain relatively stable or increase slightly. By selling call options, the investor collects premiums, providing a cushion against potential losses. However, if the stock price exceeds the strike price of the sold call option, the investor must sell the stock at that strike price, potentially missing out on higher gains.
