It was a volatile week for Indian markets but the Nifty managed to recoup its losses and closed flat for the week-ended June 22 with a positive bias. With June F&O expiry on Thursday, volatility is likely to pick up this week.
Trade war concerns between the two biggest economies kept the markets on an edge across the globe. Back home, the Nifty remained under quite a bit of stress during the first couple of days but managed to stage a smart recovery towards the end of the week to close above 10,800 levels. It is likely to remain volatile ahead of expiry due on Thursday. Experts say investors should look for stock-specific opportunities to take advantage of the upside momentum.
“The index has a strong base near 10,700-10750, while resistance is placed at 10,930-11,000 levels. If the Nifty manages to breach 10,930, then the possibility of index hitting 11,000 in July expiry will come true. June expiry could occur in the range of 10,700-10,900,” they added.
“Due to massive buying in the concluding hour on Friday, the Nifty managed to give a breakout from a small Triangle pattern. We continue to maintain our positive stance as long as the crucial support zone of 10,700-10,650 is not violated convincingly,” Sameet Chavan, Chief Analyst, Technicals, and Derivatives at Angel Broking, said.
He sees the Nifty retesting the higher band of its recent trading range (10,880–10,920) this week. “A sustainable rally beyond this would extend the move in the near term. Since we can see a bundle of stocks providing better trading opportunities, one should concentrate on such potential candidates that are likely to fetch higher returns.” We have collated a list of moneymaking ideas from various experts that can return 4-14 percent in the next 1-2 months:

ACC Ltd: Buy| LTP: Rs 1,294.65| Target: Rs 1,350| Stop loss: Rs 1,259| Return 4%
It sounds quite contradictory when someone recommends a stock from the ‘Cement’ space which has corrected significantly in the last 5-6 months. On Friday, we witnessed some life coming back in some of the marquee names like ACC and Ambuja.
As far as ‘ACC’ is concerned, of late, it has been languishing in a gradual manner towards its 2016 lows of Rs 1,260. We witnessed a good positive traction along with rising volumes, resulted in a formation of ‘Bullish Hammer’ pattern on weekly chart.
In addition, the ‘Positive Divergence’ in the ‘RSI’ oscillator is providing some conviction for a near-term bounce. Hence, we recommend buying this stock for a near-term target of Rs 1,350. Traders can keep their stop losses placed below Rs 1,259
Piramal Enterprises Ltd: Buy| LTP: Rs 2,599| Target: Rs 2,735| Stop loss: Rs 2,500| Return 5%
After forming a strong base around the weekly ’89 EMA’, the stock is now gearing up for strong moves on the upside. Last week, we witnessed a breakout from the recent congestion zone along with more than its average daily volumes, providing some credence to this move.
The weekly chart now looks very encouraging and hence, we anticipate it to traverse its stiff hurdle of daily ‘200 SMA’ placed around Rs 2,630. One can look to go long on the stock for a target of Rs 2,735 by following a strict stop loss below Rs 2,500.
RBL Bank Ltd: Buy| LTP: Rs 554| Target: Rs 580| Stop loss: Rs 534| Return 4.6%
This has been one of the outperforming stocks within the midcap ‘banking’ space. Recently, there was a breakout seen from the ‘Inverse Head and Shoulder’ pattern around the neckline level of Rs 540.
This was followed by a decent follow-up move, but due to some profit booking, the stock prices came off a bit from the higher levels. However, on Friday, the stock once again picked up strong momentum and has managed to close well inside the positive territory.
Thus, the recent correction can be construed as a pullback and the stock is now likely to start a fresh leg of the rally. One can look to go long on the stock for a target of Rs.580 by following a strict stop loss below Rs 534.

The stock is currently placed at the cusp of a trendline breakout joining the recent highs and the price up move on Wednesday’s session supported by the strong volume of almost three times the 200-days average volume of 7 lakhs share per session indicating larger participation at the breakout level.
The short-term support is placed around Rs 126 levels as it is the confluence of the trendline support joining lows of March 2018 (113) and June 2018 (120) and the 61.8% retracement of the previous up move (120- 139).
We expect the stock to head towards Rs 150 levels as it is the 123.6% extension of the previous up move (120-139) as projected from the recent trough of 128 signalling upside towards 150 levels.

Time-wise, the stock has already taken five weeks to retrace just 61.8% of last five weeks rally (866-1152). The shallow correction along with similar time-wise consolidation indicates a strong price structure
Also, the stochastic oscillator found support from oversold territory and witnessed a bullish crossover, indicating a positive bias.
We expect the stock to continue its buoyancy and gradually head towards Rs 1,108 levels as it is 78.6% retracement of the last leg of decline (1153-942) placed at Rs 1,108 levels.
