Stock picks from Motilal Oswal Securities; buy ACC, Petronet LNG

Here are a few trading ideas from Shubham Agarwal of Motilal Oswal Securities:

NIFTY OUTLOOK

‘Doji’ at the upper end of the weekly channel signifies a ‘No Man’s Land’ situation near 8,000. A sustained breach above 8000 could reinstate momentum & push it towards 8300. Only a breach below ‘Run Away Gap’ would stall the ongoing bullish trend. Short term traders could continue their longs in Nifty with stop placed at 7,740.

PETRONET LNG (May Futures)
Reco: Buy
Last Close: Rs 261
Target: Rs 300
