I have a buy call on Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC). Since last few weeks it has been oscillating above its crucial daily as well as weekly moving average. Structurally the oscillations have taken form of a bullish triangular pattern. Recently the stock has taken support near lower end of the pattern as well as near daily lower Bollinger band and from there the stock has started moving higher. The daily momentum indicator has given a fresh buy signal. So, this is a good level to enter into this counter from short-term perspective and from trading perspective the stop loss can be placed at Rs 275 and target will be Rs 305.

Second pick is Idea Cellular. On weekly chart it is showing a three wave setback. It has taken support hear 40 week exponential moving average and weekly lower Bollinger band. As per Elliot wave theory, a three wave setback is usually followed by a five way advance, which means considerable upside potential for the counter from current level. On the hourly chart it has formed an inverted head and shoulder pattern. This is a bullish pattern. This suggests that a fresh rally is around the corner so one can buy the stock with a stop loss of Rs 157 and target will be Rs 172 and timeframe will be two-three days.
