Sumeet Bagadia’s breakout stock recommendations
Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes that overall Indian stock market bias is cautious as the Nifty 50 index has decisively broken below the 50-DEMA zone. However, the 50-stock index is above its crucial support at 24,100. So, one can expect a trend reversal until this support is breached. The Choice Broking expert said that Nifty is facing an immediate hurdle at 24,450 to 24,500, but a fresh bull trend can be expected on Dalal Street only when the frontline index breaks above 24,800 on a closing basis. He advised a stock-specific approach and suggested looking at breakout stocks for intraday trading.
Speaking on the outlook for the Indian stock market today, Sumeet Bagadia said, “Overall, the Indian stock market bias is cautious as the Nifty 50 index has failed to close above its 50-DEMA mark, which it had lost on Tuesday. However, the frontline index is sustaining above its crucial support of 24,100, which augurs well for an expected trend reversal. However, the 50-stock index faces an immediate hurdle at 24,450 to 24,500. The Indian stock market is expected to remain sideways until it breaks above 24,800 on a closing basis. So, it is better to maintain a stock-specific approach focusing on breakout stocks for intraday trading.”
