Brigade Enterprises | CMP: Rs 1,202.2
After the recent sell-off from higher levels, the downward momentum has stopped. On the weekly charts, Brigade Enterprises has found support and reversed its trend from an important retracement zone. The chart formation and the technical indicator RSI (Relative Strength Index) suggest further bullish movement from the current levels in the coming horizon.
Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 1,290
Stop-Loss: Rs 1,160
Wipro | CMP: Rs 538.7
On the daily chart, after a vertical rally from the lows of Rs 450 to Rs 580, Wipro corrected and traded within a broader range for a few sessions. However, a breakout from its Inverse Head and Shoulders chart pattern, along with a close above the 10-day SMA (Simple Moving Average), is evident, indicating a new leg of an uptrend from current levels.
Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 575
Stop-Loss: Rs 520
State Bank of India | CMP: Rs 814.5
State Bank of India is in an accumulation zone, trading in a rangebound mode for the past several sessions. The texture of the chart formation and the RSI indicator suggests that the counter is likely to break out from the rectangle formation, leading to a new leg of an up move in the near term.
