The near-term support comes at 50-weekly moving average (WMA) placed at 15,320 and if breached, then we may see bearish trading signals. As of now, the market breath seems unfavourable.

Infosys Ltd (INFOSYS): The daily chart shows a the counter to be in a consolidation phase in the range of Rs 760 – Rs 690 from January 2019. This consolidation phase needs a breakout, which wouldd then define the next trend. The current scenario displays a gradual move towards Rs 700 – Rs 690 levels. The volumes have slipped and the stock is trading with below-average volumes with RSI and MACD also turning negative. This has impacted the momentum. However, the good news is the stock is trading above 200-day moving average (DMA), currently placed at Rs 697 levels.   CLICK HERE FOR DETAILED CHART VIEW
 
Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (TCS): Till last week, the stock was consistently rising upward with decent chart pattern and the supports were being held with buying strategies.

From here on, the counter is showing its venerability towards a downside and may head towards the support levels of 100 DMA and 200 DMA at Rs 2,065 and Rs 1,980 respectively. The approach could be finding better opportunities around the support levels, or else find a breakout, which is obviously above 2,300 levels.  CLICK HERE FOR DETAILED CHART VIEW
