It rebounded strongly from this support zone, forming a bullish candlestick pattern. On the momentum front, the RSI is trading in the bullish zone, complementing the positive price bias.

HCL Technologies | CMP: Rs 1,845
The IT sector has shown higher relative strength compared to other sectors and the benchmark index. Within this space, HCL Technologies offers a fresh buying opportunity with a favourable risk-reward profile. The stock has been gradually inching higher after breaking out from a Cup and Handle pattern. The price increase is accompanied by supportive volumes and momentum, indicating inherent strength. The gradual upmove has led to a breakout above the 127.2 percent external retracement ratio of its prior decline from Rs 1,697 to Rs 1,235.
