Vaishali Parekh’s recommendations on the stock market today

The Indian stock market surprised the street with a huge gap-up opening and played the bullish card throughout the day before giving up the gains in the last hour, according to Vaishali Parekh, Vice President – Technical Research at Prabhudas Lilladher.

Overall, stock market sentiment has improved, but Nifty needs to stay above 17,300 to 17,350.

According to Prabhudas Lilladher, Nifty Bank is doing better than Nifty 50.

Prabhudas Lilladher, an expert on buying stocks, recommended Mahanagar Gas Ltd (MGL) and Larsen & Toubro (L&T) as stocks to buy today. Today, Vaishali Parekh discussed intraday trade strategies for the stock market.

“Nifty opened near the 17300 zone erasing all the negative sentiments seen yesterday but was forced to slide down and close near the 17200 zone in the second half due to heavy profit bookings.

The Bank Nifty session opened near 39400 and maintained the levels until it closed near 39300..”

The sentiment has improved, but Prabhudas Lilladher’s Vaishali Parekh says that the Nifty needs to break above the 17300-17350 zone decisively for clarity and conviction about the trend.

Compared to the Nifty index, Bank Nifty has shown strength, with individual frontline stocks like Kotak Bank, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank showing improvement.

The support for the day is 17,050, while the resistance is 17,350. The Bank Nifty would range from 38,800 to 40,000 every day.
