Here is what Pravesh Gour, Senior Technical Analyst, Head of Research, Swastika Investmart Ltd, suggests investors should do with these stocks.
EIHOTEL: The Stock is bottoming out with bullish inverse head and shoulder formation with the surge in volume on the Daily Chart. The stock has also been forming a higher top and higher bottom formations on the weekly chart.
The pattern suggests an immediate target of Rs 170, while it has the potential to move further upside till the 200 level. On the downside, Rs. 140 will be an immediate support level. MACD (Moving average convergence divergence) is supporting the current strength whereas momentum indicator RSI (relative strength index) is also positively poised.
ZOMATO: The Primary structure of the Counter is continuously following the downtrend. The overall structure is also very bearish as it trades below all-important moving averages. The stock has broken its major demand level of Rs. 50, now it is trading around Rs. 41. On the Downside, one can sell the stock for Rs. 35. On the Upside, the Buyer has to wait for Rs. 50 for taking a new Position in the Stock.
TANLA: The counter is forming a down sloping channel formation & it has also given a breakdown of horizontal line around Rs. 1000 level. The Overall structure is looking weak as it trades below its all-important moving averages, however, it is having a demand zone near 600. On the upside, 1000 has become an immediate resistance area; above this, we can expect a run-up towards 1200+ levels in the near term. On the downside, if it breaks the 600 level then 500 is the next support level.
