Punjab National Bank (PNB): The stock appears weak on the charts as it has breached the trendline support at Rs 75, as per the weekly chart. The inability to defend its 100-DMA seems a tough. After crossing 100-DMA in November 2019, PNB has failed to sustain the momentum. Going ahead, if Rs 58 which is the support for this stock gets broken, it may then see Rs 50 and Rs 45 levels in the days ahead.  CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART

 

Canara Bank (CANBK): The weekly chart shows an “Inverse Head and Shoulder” breakout above Rs 220. The stock is witnessing selling pressure on higher levels. Even on the daily chart, where RSI trades with a negative crossover along with MACD, the price correction seems legitimate. One can have a positive bias considering Rs 185 as an immediate support for an upside towards Rs 240 and Rs 255 levels. CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART

          

Bank of Baroda (BANKBARODA): The stock is waiting for a breakout above Rs 110, which is its 200-DMA. On the other hand, till it holds Rs 90, the optimism should stay.

The MACD has made a negative crossover last Friday, which is trading above the signal line.CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART
