The benchmark indices bounced back on April 2, with the Nifty 50 snapping a two-day correction and rising 0.7 percent. The bulls dominated the market breadth, with about 1,951 shares seeing buying interest compared to 640 declining shares on the NSE. The market is expected to react negatively to the 26% discounted reciprocal tariff on India announced by Donald Trump, but some buying can't be ruled out at lower levels. Below are some trading ideas for the near term:

Aditya Birla Capital | CMP: Rs 190.16
Aditya Birla Capital has given a Bullish Pennant pattern breakout on Wednesday. This breakout is confirmed by relatively higher volume. In addition, it has formed a sizeable bullish candle on the breakout day, which adds strength to the breakout. Most noteworthy, the stock has surged above its 200-day EMA level for the first time since November 2024, which is a bullish sign.
The daily RSI is in bullish territory and is in rising mode. The trend strength indicator, Average Directional Index (ADX), is at 28.15 and is rising, which indicates strength. The +DI is much above the -DI. This structure is indicative of bullish strength in the stock. Hence, we recommend accumulating in the zone of Rs 190-191 with a stop-loss at Rs 183. On the upside, it is likely to test the level of Rs 206 in the short term.
Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 206
Stop-Loss: Rs 183
Indian Hotels Company | CMP: Rs 830.15
On March 25, Indian Hotels formed a Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern and thereafter witnessed a throwback. The throwback was halted near the 20-day EMA level and coincided with the 50 percent Fibonacci retracement level of its prior upward rally (Rs 703.20-858). The stock has formed a strong base near the support zone and witnessed a strong rebound. Currently, the stock is trading above its short- and long-term moving averages.
Further, the daily RSI is in bullish territory. The daily MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) stays bullish as it is quoting above its zero line and signal line. Hence, we recommend accumulating in the zone of Rs 833-827 with a stop-loss of Rs 798. On the upside, it is likely to test the level of Rs 910 in the short term.
Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 910
Stop-Loss: Rs 798
Shyam Metalics and Energy | CMP: Rs 914.4
Shyam Metalics and Energy has given a consolidation breakout on a daily scale. This breakout was supported by a robust volume of more than five times the 50-day average volume, indicating strong buying interest by market participants. The 50-day average volume was 4.32 lakh, while on Wednesday the stock registered a total volume of 23.39 lakh. Currently, the stock is trading above its short- and long-term moving averages. These averages are on a rising trajectory, which is a bullish sign.
Further, the daily RSI is in the super bullish zone, as per RSI range shift rules. Hence, we recommend accumulating in the zone of Rs 915-905 with a stop-loss of Rs 870. On the upside, it is likely to test the level of Rs 1,010 in the short term.
Strategy: Buy
Target: Rs 1,010
Stop-Loss: Rs 870
