BSE Code : 512070
Is UPL a good buy for the medium-term at CMP?
- Vijay Bajaj
BUY ABOVE RS 725 ON A CLOSING BASIS
UPL is a good stock that has generated wonderful returns to its shareholders in the past. However, it has corrected signifi- cantly by over 15 per cent since its recent swing high, owing to bad global cues. After recording a low of Rs 622, the stock has seen a sharp recovery of about 13 per cent. On the weekly timeframe, the stock has found good support in the zone of Rs 600-Rs 620 earlier. Moreover, the technical parameters have also indicated improved strength in the stock. The stock is currently approaching its major resistance of Rs 725. The stock will turn bullish if its closes above Rs 725. Moreover, the 20-daily moving average lies near this level. Thus, you can consider entering the stock above Rs 725 for the medium-term horizon. However, maintain a stop-loss at Rs 622.
JK TYRE & INDUSTRIES LTD
CMP : ₹105.50
BSE Code : 530007
Has JK Tyre bottomed out to make a fresh entry?
- Shankarlal Devidan
CONSIDER FRESH ENTRY AT RS 118
The stock has witnessed a sharp downside move on the daily chart. It has corrected about 25 per cent since its recent high of Rs 142.50. However, it is seen to have a strong support zone at Rs 104-Rs 105 but the price action does not suggest any buying interest in the stock as of now. Moreover, the technical parameters are largely bearish. The 14-period daily RSI is in the bearish territory while MACD indicates a strong downtrend in the stock. Moreover, the above-average volumes have been recorded in recent times, indicating a severe sell-off. Thus, it would be a wise decision to wait for strong price action on the higher side accompanied by good volume. The 20-DMA lies at Rs 118, post which, the stock witnessed a tremendous upside. Thus, you can consider a fresh entry above Rs 118.
V-GUARD INDUSTRIES LTD.
CMP : ₹206.60
BSE Code : 532953
How is V Guard Industries for a short-term approach?
- Sachin Sain
THE STOCK WILL TURN BULLISH ABOVE RS 208
After its recent downtrend, the stock has seen a sharp recovery from the level of Rs 181-Rs 183. Since then, it has gained over 12 per cent in just four trading sessions. The 14-period daily RSI has also jumped from 27 to 49 during this period, indicating an improved strength. However, the stock is not yet bullish as it still trades below 20-day short-term moving averages. Moreover, the trading volumes have dropped lately despite an increase in the stock price, which is not a bullish sign. The technical parameters do not show much movement in the stock while the oscillators point towards slight bearishness. The stock will turn bullish if it crosses above its 20-DMA, which lies at Rs 208. A surge above this level can see the stock catching huge upside momentum and will turn bullish for the short term.

CMP : Rs447.85

I have the shares of Kansai Nerolac at Rs 525. What should I do?
- S M Deodhar
CONSIDER SQUARING OFF YOUR POSITION AT CMP
The stock has eroded approximately 13 per cent below your buying price. It is under tremendous selling pressure and the market sentiments have badly affected its price. It has slipped for the sixth consecutive week and is extremely bearish. It trades below all the key moving averages. Adding further, the stock is witnessing an aggravated sell-off in the past few days. Moreover, the technical indicators are largely bearish. The trend indicator ADX has risen to 54, which indicates a strong downtrend of the stock. The stock is trading near its 52-week low, which is not a positive sign. Overall, the picture is quite bearish as the current price action does not show any signs of reversal. Thus, it would be a wise decision to get out of the stock at the current market price (CMP).
