Sumeet Bagadia's stock recommendations for Monday

1] Hero MotoCorp: Buy at ₹5743.75, target ₹6205, stop loss ₹5520.

Hero MotoCorp's share price currently trades at ₹5,743.75, exhibiting a robust long-term uptrend. The stock has consistently formed higher highs and higher lows over the past few months, indicating a bullish pattern. It recently experienced a V-shaped recovery from its demand zones, supported by a significant increase in trading volumes. If Hero MotoCorp's share can sustain its position above ₹5,800, it will likely continue its upward momentum toward a target of ₹6,205.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 70.08 and trending upward, signalling increased buying momentum. Hero MotoCorp share has bounced from its key moving averages, including the 20-day and 50-day EMAs, further reinforcing a bullish outlook.

Given these technical indicators, we recommend taking a long position in Hero MotoCorp share at ₹5,743.75, with a stop loss set at ₹5,520 to manage risk and a target price of ₹6,205, in line with the favourable market sentiment.

2] Marico: Buy at ₹665.25, target ₹725, stop loss ₹636.

Marico's share price is currently ₹665.25 and in an upward trend, forming higher highs and lows on the daily chart. The stock trades within a rising parallel channel and consolidates near historical peaks. Signs of a reversal from demand zones, backed by notable trading volumes, suggest strength. If Marico's share surpasses the ₹675 mark, it could potentially advance towards a target range of ₹710 to ₹725.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 52.95, with a positive crossover, suggesting increased buying momentum. Additionally, Marico's share price has found support near its key moving averages, including the short-term (20-day) EMA and medium-term (50-day) EMA levels, reinforcing its bullish trajectory.

Based on the technical setup and indicators (RSI and moving averages), buying Marico shares at ₹665.25 with a stop loss of ₹636 and a target price of ₹725 offers a compelling opportunity for potential gains.

The stock has rebounded from its support zones and has moved above key moving averages, including the short-term (20-day) EMA, medium-term (50-day) EMA and long-term (200-day) EMA levels, indicating a possible trend reversal. If Bajaj Finance's share holds above the ₹7,420 level, it could continue its upward trajectory toward a target range of ₹7,850 to ₹7,905.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 67.20 and trending upward, suggesting increasing buying momentum. The stock's movement above its key moving averages reinforces a bullish outlook, indicating that it may continue its upward momentum.
