Analysis: INFY

Today’s pick is [stockquote]INFY[/stockquote]. Even though the stock has experienced a high of 3000 and a low of 2150 during the last 12 months, it is still trading at roughly the same price as it was a year ago.

The stock has seen two drastic gap downs over the last 7 months. The up-trend since mid-July saw a tip-off near 2600 levels which might act as a near-term resistance level.

Looking at the chart for the last 2 months, a head and shoulder top might seem to be in formation if the current up-trend stalls and take a turn around 2450 levels on higher volumes.

Oscillators RSI and CMO are at currently at 39 and -30. At this level of RSI, the stock has still got around 15 points to reach oversold levels. The CMO will also take time to reach the oversold side. These technicals are not giving out any signal currently.

MACD line and signal line are closing in towards each other and histogram levels are dropping off as well. The behavior of histogram (a decreasing slope) can act as an early signal of the imminent short-term up-trend.

The GMMA chart for the long term signal is suggesting a change in direction (uptrend since July) for the scrip. The short term lines are moving up again suggesting an up-trend after the last fall. A penetration of the short term lines with good volumes can bring about the up-trend for the stock.

Infosys’s average correlation of 0.53 with the Niftybees is positive but not very strong. At this level the movements of the stock will not be of the same magnitude as Niftybees. [stockquote]NIFTYBEES[/stockquote]

Infosys has a historical volatility in the range of 0.2 to 0.6. The current volatility is is a result of the EMKAY trades and it should not be a cause of concern.

Looking at these technicals, it appears that the stock is presently nearing oversold territory. A short term buy would be a good idea but for the long term you might want to wait and watch until those long term lines of GMMA dis-entangle themselves to take a stand.

Analysis: DLF

Today’s pick is [stockquote]DLF[/stockquote]. Even though the stock experienced a strong uptrend around June, it is still trading at roughly the same price as it was a year ago. 

image

Oscillators RSI and CMO are at currently at 40 and -39. At this level of RSI, the stock is at oversold levels (according to the historical RSI levels). The CMO is closing in towards the oversold side. Both the technicals are showing a buy signal.

MACD line and signal line are drifting apart from each other and histogram levels are fairly stagnant. The behavior of histogram (a decreasing slope) can act as an early signal of the imminent short-term up-trend.

The GMMA chart is just too messy. The long-term lines are moving close to each other (signaling a probable change of previous trend) and the decreasing separation in the short term lines suggest that the traders should be on a lookout for a spike in volatility in the near-term.

DLF’s average correlation of 0.71 with the Niftybees proves to be a strong and positive correlation. At this level the movements of the stock will be of the similar magnitude as Niftybees. [stockquote]NIFTYBEES[/stockquote]

DLF has a historical volatility in the range of 0.4 to 0.9. The volatility is currently in the middle range and currently should not be a matter of concern to the traders.

Looking at these technicals, it appears that the stock is presently nearing oversold territory. A short term buy would be a good idea but for the long term you might want to be on your back foot. Resistance levels are around Rs. 240 (Rs. 260 long-term) and a very strong support is visible around 180 levels.

Analysis: RELIANCE

This week’s pick is [stockquote]RELIANCE[/stockquote]. Trading at around the same price as an year ago, the stock has made a meager return of 3% over the last 12 month period. The stock is in constant uptrend since May, with a few small corrections in between after it found the support at 670 levels.

Untitled

Oscillators like RSI and CMO are at currently at 47 and -23. At this level of RSI, the uptrend has no potential stops in the very near future. And looking at the previous highs of RSI, the stock can see an up-move till RSI reaches close to 75. The CMO as well is in the middle, and moving close to the -50 levels. If it gets too close to -50, it will signal a buy.

MACD line and signal line are drifting apart from each other and histogram levels are stagnant, but a higher high in the prices with lower highs in the MACD line is a divergence. This behavior can be suggesting the imminent change in the direction of the prices.

Looking at GMMA for a medium to long term outlook is not giving a lot of indication. The long term lines are moving close to each other (signaling a probable change of previous trend). The decreasing separation in the short term lines also suggests a lookout period for the near term.

Reliance’s average correlation of 0.73 with the Niftybees suggests that the correlation is quite strong and positive, and the movements will be of the similar magnitude as Niftybees. [stockquote]NIFTYBEES[/stockquote]

image

Reliance has volatility in the range of 0.2 to 0.6 for the most part, which is not a very big range. The volatility is currently at sky high levels of beyond 0.7, higher compared to the recent past. A constant eye is required on the scrip in case it makes a sudden move.

The up-trend is quite prominent. Looking at these technical, a short term buy is good but for the long term you might want to be cautious as the stock can check for the resistance levels at Rs. 900.
