Rajesh Bhosale, Technical Analyst at Angel One

Ashok Leyland | CMP: Rs 130.77

Ashok Leyland prices continue to trend higher in a steady higher-top, higher-bottom formation, recently breaking past a key resistance level and confirming a bullish continuation setup. The breakout occurred with a Bullish Tasuki Gap, which not only highlights strong trend momentum but is also acting as a solid support zone on declines. Adding to the positive structure, the RSI across all major time frames has crossed above 60, reinforcing the strength of the uptrend and supporting a constructive outlook.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 145

Stop-Loss: Rs 124

Dixon Technologies | CMP: Rs 17,855

Dixon Technologies has broken out of a multi-month resistance with strong volumes and a bullish candlestick, confirming underlying strength. A golden crossover of the 50-EMA above the 200-SMA adds positive long-term implications, while prices moving above the 61.8% retracement of the decline from all-time highs signals a likely resumption of the primary uptrend. Importantly, volumes are aligning with the trend — rising during up moves and easing during dips — which validates the sustainability of the ongoing bullish structure.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 19,900

Stop-Loss: Rs 16,770

NMDC | CMP: Rs 74.5

After consolidating in a range for the past few months, NMDC has broken out last week, confirming a symmetrical triangle bullish pattern. Such breakouts typically pave the way for strong trending moves, and this one is reinforced by a bullish candlestick with high volumes. Adding to the conviction, prices are trading well above key moving averages, underscoring the strength of the overall positive structure.

Strategy: Buy

Target: Rs 81

Stop-Loss: Rs 71
