Hot Stocks: Here is why you should bet on Godrej Industries, Ashok Leyland, Finolex Cables for short term?
By Rupak De, senior technical analyst at LKP Securities
The Nifty 50 witnessed selling pressure as it encountered resistance near the previous swing high, resulting in a weak closing on April 30. Other indicators such as the 20-day simple moving average (SMA) and the 50-day SMA are positioned below the index value, suggesting that the ongoing positive trend remains intact.
The relative strength index (RSI) also indicates a bullish crossover. Over the next few days, the trend in the headline index might remain sideways unless it breaks above the all-time high of 22,783. On the downside, immediate support is placed at 22,500, below which the index might decline further.
The BankNifty experienced a volatile trading session on the expiry day, with bulls prevailing in the first half and bears asserting dominance in the latter half. While the index didn’t quite breach the 50,000 level, the overall sentiment remains bullish.
Any declines in the index should be viewed as buying opportunities, particularly given the substantial support observed around the 49,000 level, which corresponds to the highest open interest on the Put side.
