Technical View
"Recently, the stock has reversed from the lower end of the falling channel. Today, it has moved beyond its 20 DMA and 40 DMA levels, making 9600 an immediate support level technically. On the upside, 10100/10200 is the immediate resistance, representing the upper end of the falling channel. Therefore, the short-term range for the rest of the May expiry is 9600-10200," highlighted Thakkar.
Shah also said, "There is a positive divergence on the daily MACD which is also a short term positive for the stock, hence it is likely to inch towards the upper end of the falling channel."
