The market attempted to extend the previous day's rally but selling pressure in late trade pulled it down to close marginally lower on October 9. However, the market breadth remained positive due to buying in the broader space, with about 1,708 shares advancing against 802 declining shares on the NSE. Volatility is expected to continue in the market, with support at the current week's low. Below are some trading ideas for the near term:

In recent price action, the stock has shown a bullish mean reversion from the 12-week EMA, and on the daily scale, it has seen buying interest from a double bottom formation. This suggests that the stock is poised for a faster retracement and is likely to continue its upward trajectory.
