    Dr Reddy's Laboratories | CMP: Rs 6,691.5Image1525092024

    Dr Reddy's Laboratories has attracted buying interest around the cluster of key hourly moving averages and the 38.2 percent Fibonacci retracement level of the previous rise. The hourly momentum indicator has reached the equilibrium line, suggesting that the consolidation is complete, and the stock may start a new cycle. We expect the stock to trade with a positive bias.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 6,825, Rs 6,900

    Stop-Loss: Rs 6,580

    Petronet LNG | CMP: Rs 330

    Image1625092024

    Petronet LNG has completed a five-wave decline, and we expect a retracement of the fall. The daily momentum indicator has shown a positive crossover, which is a buy signal. We expect the stock to reach levels of Rs 345–352 on the upside. A stop-loss of Rs 320 should be maintained for long positions.

    Strategy: Buy

    Target: Rs 345, Rs 352

    Stop-Loss: Rs 320

    Godrej Properties has demonstrated strong momentum, with a 41-day decline being retraced in just 6 days, indicating a robust price structure. After breaking out of its year 2021 swing high in April 2024, the stock moved into positive territory. A bullish mean reversion from the 100-EMA (Exponential Moving Average), along with a rising MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), signals accelerating momentum. Additionally, volume activity has surged above the 10-day average, reinforcing the bullish price action. Looking ahead, the stock has the potential for an upside target of Rs 3,986, with a recommended stop-loss at Rs 3,050 on a closing basis for effective risk management.
