"Mirroring a firm trend in the global market and in response to declining commodity prices, the domestic market maintained its positive trend. The up-move was supported by broad-based buying, except in IT, which remained under pressure after Accenture downgraded its earnings forecast," said Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services.

Solara Active Pharma Sciences
After a long correction, the stock took the support near 325 and bounced back sharply. On last Friday, it rallied over 14 percent. The promising pullback rally, indicating further upside from the current levels. in addition, on daily charts, it has formed long bullish candle that also support short term uptrend. For the momentum traders, 370-365 would be the key support levels. And, if stock manages to trade above the same, we can expect continuation of uptrend wave up to 410-425. On the flip side, traders may prefer to exit from trading long positions, if it succeed to close below 365.
Star Health:
In the past week, the stock has corrected over 14 percent. During the week, the stock broke the important support level of 570 and post breakdown, it intensified the weak momentum. In addition, on weekly and daily charts, the stock has formed long bearish candle that also support further weakness from the current levels. For the traders, now 570 would be the immediate resistance level. Below the same, the correction wave is likely to continue till 525-515. The short term texture of the stock is extremely volatile hence, traders should remain cautious and be very selective as there is a risk of getting trapped at lower levels.
Vakrangee
In this quarter so far, the counter corrected over 25 percent. On daily and weekly charts, it is consistently forming lower top series formation, which is broadly negative for the Vakrangee Ltd. The short-term texture of the stock weak but oversold. We are of the view that continuation of a pullback rally possible, if it succeeds to trade above 20-day SMA or 26. Above which, it could rally till 28-30. On the flip side, below 24 uptrend would be vulnerable.
