Nifty shows scope for downsides in near term, Buy these stocks to pocket gains

By Subash Gangadharan

On the daily chart, we can observe that Nifty continues to make lower tops and lower bottoms and is now trading below its 20 day and 50 day SMA. With the 14-day RSI at 40.58 and not yet oversold, there is scope for more downsides in the near term. Crucial support to watch for more weakness is now at 19,333. Any pullback rallies could find resistance at 19,623.

Buy Liberty Shoes

Liberty Shoes has shown relative strength this week. While the Nifty has shed 0.96% this week, Liberty Shoes has gained a healthy 5.56%. In the process, the stock has closed above its recent trading range on the back of above average volumes, which augurs well for the uptrend to continue.

Technical indicators are giving positive signals as the stock is trading above the 20 and 50 day SMA. Momentum readings like the 14-week RSI too are in rising mode and not overbought, which implies potential for further upsides.

With the intermediate technical setup too looking attractive, we expect the stock to move up towards its previous intermediate highs in the coming weeks. Buy between the Rs 277-281 levels. CMP is Rs 279.85. Stop loss is at Rs. 240 while target is at Rs. 350.
