Here's what Ashish Kyal of Waves Strategy Advisors recommends investors should do with these stocks when the market resumes trading today:
Hero MotoCorp has given a strong breakout on weekly time frame. The stock has moved above the upper trendline of the triangle pattern. Nifty auto index is in uptrend since the low was made in March 2020 and since then we have not seen any reversal here.
Hero MotoCorp might try to catch up with the overall auto index on upside and can move towards the target to Rs 4,000 and possibly higher. Any dips can be used as buying opportunity in this stock as long as Rs 3,200 remains intact.
In short, overall trend for Hero MotoCorp is positive for the target of Rs 4,000 and higher, with Rs 3,200 as immediate support.
Hindustan Petroleum Corporation
HPCL has been moving higher recently and intact in strong uptrend. On the daily chart, in the previous session prices formed a bullish candle. Price has recently given breakout of rounding bottom at Rs 310 levels and now it has retest to the same breakout level hence it is expected to move higher.
We have shown ADX (average directional index) indicator which gives an indication if the stock is trending or in a trading range. The ADX of this stock is 55.52 giving an indication of a trending market. The reading above 25 means strong directional strength. Recently profit booking was witnessed which helped RSI (relative strength index) to cool off.
In short, trend for this stock is positive. One can ride the ongoing trend with the targets of Rs 345-350 as long as Rs 310 is intact on the downside.
Suzlon has continued to move sharply higher since May 2023. Prices have moved from Rs 8.50 to the high of Rs 44 thereby generating multibagger returns.
As of now the momentum indicator RSI is still not showing any slowdown as there is no negative divergence. Recently we saw a dip towards the mid Bollinger Bands which is acting as a classic support in the entire up move.
We can see that prices have reversed back on upside every time it has moved the mid average. Even this time prices formed a green candle after having Gap down but buying emerged back on upside.
So overall, trend for stock is positive for a move to the upper end of the bands which is near Rs 44 as long as the stock do not close below middle bands near Rs 35.
