This support zone is particularly important as it also coincides with the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), a key technical indicator that often serves as a strong level of support.
Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the hourly chart is showing a bullish divergence at this support level, which is a signal that the stock may be poised for a reversal. This makes the current price levels of Rs 530-520 attractive for taking a long position.
Given these technical indicators, the stock is recommended for buying within this price range, with an upside target of 600. To manage risk effectively, it is advisable to place a stop-loss at Rs 455 on a daily closing basis.

This breakout is particularly noteworthy because it has also violated a bearish trendline that has constrained the stock's movement for nearly three years along with volume picking up. The length of time it took for this breakout to occur makes it a significant event, suggesting a potential change in the stock's long-term trend. Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), a momentum indicator, has consistently remained above the 50 level throughout this period.
This is a sign of strength, indicating that despite the consolidation, the stock has maintained positive momentum. Considering these technical factors, we recommend taking a long position in Lxchem within the price range of Rs 298-302.
The upside target is set at Rs 340, reflecting the potential for further gains following the breakout. To manage risk effectively, a stop-loss should be placed near Rs 280 on a daily closing basis.
