Shree Ganesh Forgings Limited (SGFL):

Price data is available at NSE from May 22, 2007. However it is being traded at BSE since August 2005. We shall analyze both weekly and daily charts.

It fell from a high of 83.5 in September 2005 to a low of 25.70 in July 2006. It closed above the resistance trendline in second week of October 2006. Once this happens, some investors enter the stock anticipating further uptrend. But there is a risk in this type of trade entry. As can be seen from the chart, the stock fell continuously and even broke its support at previous low during the last week of March 2007. Once support is broken, more sellers should come in. But what about those who bought the stock above the resistance trendline? The bulls responded with non stop vertical rally. This rise, will be used to exit the stock.

In daily chart, after the resistance at 33.65 was broken on July 3 the stock has seen very little downside volatility. Note the number of one priced doji’s i.e. open, high, low and close are all same. This indicates that the stock had opened and closed at the highest possible price for the day.

Evenix Accessories Limited:

We have seen in “Chart patterns and market’s reaction” about bullish and bearish patterns. The “flag” pattern is a bullish continuation pattern that can last upto 12 weeks. The debate is still on about the duration, though. Firstly, a “pole” needs to be formed; this consists of a rapid sharp move with heavy volumes. Then a flag, or small rectangle pattern is formed against the previous uptrend. Once the stock breaks above the resistance trendline, again a sharp upmove occurs. The stock had all the way gone up from 85.60 to 163.65 without a single correction.

Kothari Products Limited:

Weekly chart suggests that it closed above its previous high of 647.95 almost after a year; it had been consolidating so far.

Akruti Nirman Limited & Axis IT & T:

These are cases of bear trap. We discussed about Akruti Nirman in my previous article “BSE India launches New Real Estate Index

Nectar Life Sciences Limited, Zee News, Goldstone Technologies, Sunil Hitec and Indiabulls Real Estate broke their previous highs on July 13, July 18, June 28, July 11, June 25 respectively.

K M Sugar Mills Limited:

(Chart courtesy: BSE Web site)

The weekly chart of KM Sugar Mills shows the bearish trend in the stock. It has fallen from a high of 106 in December 2005 to a low of 18.9 this week. It has not been able to break resistances; instead, it keeps breaking supports. Sugar stocks have been hit worst in the last 18 months.

Tips Industries, HTMT Global, Decolight Ceramics, Aarti Industries and Polaris are bearish in daily charts. Malwa Cotton, a case of bear trap, gained about 29% last month. But it is struggling to find some solid support.
