Day trading guide: 2 stock recommendations for Monday

Aditya Agarwala
Senior Technical Analyst, YES Securities

It was a bloodbath in the Indian equity markets on the last trading day of the week as Nifty-50 Index ended with a massive cut of 4%. Further, relentless selling by the bears after a GAP down opening pushed the Nifty-50 Index below its recent support zone of 14,630 indicating weakness; though the selling halted at the 50-DMA placed at 14,440 which also happened to be the GAP support area. A sustained trade below this support of 14,440 will extend the corrections to 14,330-14,300 levels. Technical indicator RSI has also turned down from the bear upper territory of 60 confirming bearish sentiments prevailing at the moment. However, on the flip side a trade beyond 14,650 will trigger a short covering rally taking the Index back to levels of 14,800.
