Asian Paints has been seeing correction for the last two months, after making a new record high at 2873.45 levels. It has formed a base around the support zone of the medium-term moving average(100 EMA) on the daily chart and likely to see a rebound now. We thus advise creating fresh longs in the mentioned zone.
Infosys Limited
Recommendation: Buy
Last Close: 1,345.55
Initiation range: 1,330-1,340
Target: 1,410
Stop loss: 1,300
Most IT stocks are holding strong despite the recent volatility in the market and now look upbeat for a rebound. Among the IT majors, Infosys has formed a fresh buying pivot on the daily chart, after a week-long consolidation. The chart pattern and positioning of indicators are further adding to the confirmation.
Cipla Limited
Recommendation: Sell March Futures
Last Close: 803.40
Initiation range:810-815
Target: 775
Stop loss: 830
We’re seeing profit-taking in most of the pharma counters and Cipla has witnessed a fresh breakdown today i.e. March 9, after hovering in a narrow range for two weeks. Further, weakness in the pharma index is pointing towards the prevailing corrective trend to continue. We thus advise creating fresh shorts in the mentioned zone.
