A solid positive breakout is seen in these stocks; do you hold them?

Nifty 50 continued to fall amid weak global trends. In this post, we have identified top stocks that are experiencing a solid positive breakout.

Nifty 50 index opened lower at 17,790.1, compared to its previous closing of 17,764.6. This was due to a lacklustre of global cues. Leading Wall Street indices closed in the negative on Monday, as strong job data raised the probability of an aggressive rate rise by the US Federal Reserve. Markets will most likely be watching for remarks from US Fed Chair Jerome Powell in his interview later today.

Technical

Nifty 50 is consolidating and trading below its 20 and 50-Day Exponential Moving Averages (EMA). It is serving as strong resistance to the Nifty 50, while the 200-Day EMA is working as strong support. In the short term, the resistance zone would be from 17,930 to 17,975, while the support zone would be from 17,355 to 17,460. Any movement beyond this level will determine the market's direction.
