Stock recommendation
 
HDFC

Recommendation: BUY
 
Target: Rs 2,350
 
Stop loss: Rs 2,256
 
The stock is in a continuous bullish trend. The level above 2,290 would also result into a multiple breakout on the charts as there is no real resistance above 2,300.70. Moving average and Oscillator setup is bullish on the short-term and medium-term charts.
 
Considering the technical evidence discussed above, we recommend buying the stock at Rs 2,290 for the target of Rs 2,350, keeping a stop loss at Rs 2,256 on closing basis.

ULTRATECH CEMENT 

Recommendation: BUY
 
Target: Rs 4,700
 
Stop loss: Rs 4,580
 
It has remained resilient in the recent past. The scrip is trading above all important moving averages. Considering the technical evidence discussed above, we recommend buying the stock at Rs 4,623 for the target of Rs 4,700, keeping a stop loss at Rs 4,580 on closing basis.
