Here is what Gaurav Ratnaparkhi, Head of Technical Research at Sharekhan by BNP Paribas, recommends investors should do with these stocks
BHEL
The stock has been forming a base above the key weekly moving averages for the last few weeks. The zone of 51-52 was acting as a strong support. Thereon the stock has taken a leap & has kick started the next leg up today. The up move is well supported by volumes, which is a positive sign. Going ahead, 65 & 80 will be the targets from medium term perspective.
L&T Finance Holdings
The stock has been witnessing a gradual rise since the beginning of July. A recent minor degree dip was absorbed near the lower end of a reverse rising channel & the daily lower Bollinger Band. From there we saw fresh buying support emerging. The momentum picked up sharply as the stock crossed the swing high of 78.60. Going ahead, 92 & 113 will be the targets to watch out for
IDBI Bank
The stock was trading with a sideways to downward bias for the last few weeks. In terms of the price patterns, it formed a bullish Flag pattern on the daily chart & has broken out on the upside today. The price breakout is being accompanied by volumes. Thus, 47 & 65 will be the short term & medium-term targets respectively.
