      You didnt reply to my last question but here’s one more for you….

      THanks a lot
      Compliments of the season again

      • Sunday, December 27, 2009 at 7:40 pm

        Geodesic is in a range of 90 to 150. so one can buy close to lower end of the range and intend to sell at the higher end of the range.
        if you wish to trade for the short term, you can keep a stop around 110 for a target of 135-140.

        Thanks for the wishes. You too have prosperous 2010!

      I have 700 shares of GVK at 46.38. can I hold or sell?

      • Saturday, December 26, 2009 at 5:25 pm

        Hold for next 3-4 weeks keeping a stop below 45. Hold the stock if it manages to cross 54-55 during this period.

      I would be grateful if you could suggest a few stocks that might bring some profit in three to six months. I can invest Rs.1 lakh. How is Tata Elixsi?

      thanks

      • Saturday, December 26, 2009 at 5:27 pm

        Please check the ideas presented on the blog like Ashok leyland, Cadila etc.
        Avoid telecom stocks and speculative stocks like Unitech.

      I Hold 70 Shares of PTC @ 120 since last 2 Years, what should i do? Please Guide.

      • Saturday, December 26, 2009 at 5:35 pm

        if you have held for 2 years, I’d recommend that you hold further for next 3-6 months. You might get more returns in this period than in the last 2 years!

      Dear Sage ,
      I have Idea cellular 200 shares @ avg price of Rs.78 , the stock has recovered a lot from the realms of depth should I hold further or book losses & exit now.

      Bharat forge seems to be stagnant in the range of 260-270 any upward movement expected or safer to exit at these levels enterd @ 176 levels.

      Omaxe ltd holding 65 shares @ 87.50. Any strategy on this scrip.

      Your tips would be held in high regard.

      Thanks !

      I would like to buy tcs. Could you please tell me the entry level of this stock? I had bought this stock a couple of months ago, but taken quick profit at 630/-. Also please suggest entry/exit level of Tata Elixsi.
      thanks

      • Sunday, December 20, 2009 at 9:38 am

        TCS is hitting all time highs and it is very difficult to enter these stocks if your strategy is to buy on dips. Such stocks might never dip and when the finally when the dip happens it transforms into a trend reversal.
        As I had indicated earlier, 650 is a strong support for the stock and you can buy keeping this as your stop loss. People who wait for dips miss the big moves. people who chase momentum without risk management end up riding the down moves.

        Satyam showed promise but failed to deliver. So we are out of it.
        Infy,TCS and Wipro have been delivering and we are with them.
        I might switch if the situation reverses.

        if you keep a longer term view, I would not keep a single stock from the list you have. You can consider focussing on “return of money” rather than “return on money”.

      Please provide short term outlook for GSPL, India Glycol, PSL and Liberty shoes as well.

      • Sunday, December 20, 2009 at 9:41 am

        REC faces some pressure due to the coming FPO. The stock still looks decent from a long term perspective.

      Hi Mr.Sage,

      I hold 350 shares of IDEA CELLULAR at Rs.57.99. Will you please tell me how it will move?
      Thanks

      • Friday, December 11, 2009 at 5:54 pm

        I am currently neutral on the stock. I had a few short positions on the stock at 70 which got stopped out at 53. The stock faces tough challenge at 64-65 levels. If the stock manages to cross that, then 75-80. If not, then a move back to 50 is very likely.

      Dear Sage,
      If the Nifty to cross 5180-5200 level before Q3 results, tomorrow’s IIP numbers need to drive it to some extend besides global cues. In your view what is expected IIP number to be bullish on the Market for Dec 09?

      • Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 6:39 pm

        I don’t care much about the news but the reaction of the markets to the news.if the markets are in a bearish phase then even good news can’t take them up!

      • Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 6:41 pm

        The stock still looks bullish in long term. Although in short term, the stock is a bit sluggish. I’d look for 60-65 targets in medium term with stop losses around 44-45.

      • Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 6:49 pm

        650 is a good support for the stock and a decent entry point.
        Alternatively you can buy now, keeping a stop below 650. One advantage of such approach is that you will not miss any upward moves in the stock while limiting your risk.

      Dear Sage,
      I have not been trading for a fortnight now since markets seem to be in a flux. I have postponed sell / buy of various scrips esp. mid cap due to this reason. Any comments?

      • Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 6:52 pm

        Although midcaps are in sideways mode but such stocks jump suddenly w/o giving an opportunity to enter. Check a stock like KPIT Cummins. and you must be knowing that “pain of missing a winner” is same as “pain of losing”.

      • Tuesday, December 8, 2009 at 8:22 pm

      I want to buy Gujrat NRE and Anant Raj @CMP. PL. ADVISE

      • Sunday, December 6, 2009 at 9:42 pm

        NRE Coke- Buy the stock after it gets past 70-71 on a closing basis. You’d quickly see a target of 80-85 and possibly 90.
        Anant Raj – Avoid the stock. In real estate HDIL, Orbit or DLF might be better bets. Although real estate as a sector is currently not looking great.

      • Sunday, December 6, 2009 at 9:49 pm

        I’d suggest that you make a switch to HCL or TCS. If you wish to play Mahindra Satyam, you can buy Tech Mahindra(owner of Satyam) which carries less risk.

      • Wednesday, December 2, 2009 at 5:45 pm

        The stock is showing some signs of bottoming out but is still not out of the woods. I’d suggest booking some profits around 90 levels and then at 100 levels.
        On the downside, keep a stop around 65.

      Dear Sage, I am holding NMDC, NTPC, HDIL & Jai corp stocks. How these stocks would be considering the current level? Thanks -> Ronald

      • Wednesday, November 25, 2009 at 7:29 am

        HDIL- The stock is showing signs of picking momentum. I’d hold it foe next couple of weeks to see if it breaks out. this is one of the better looking real estate stocks.
        NTPC- Exit. the stock is sideways and is showing no signs of an uptrend. You can consider switching to Tata Power.
        NMDC- the stock went up on news flow of disinvestment. The stock needs to cross 475 to pick momentum. Otherwise, it can get back to 340 levels. Ideally the government should keep the stock levels higher in order to cash out!
        Jai corp- Avoid this junk. You can find many better bets than this one.

      Thanks allot.

      • Wednesday, November 25, 2009 at 7:35 am

        Suzlon- Exit on rise. the stock faces tough challenge at 80.
        Tanla- Exit on rise. Switch to HCL tech or
        Bharti- Exit. Avoid telecoms as they can slide to unimaginable levels.
        JP- Hold
        Adhunik- Keep a stop at 90. Hold the stock if it manages to cross 120 for targets of 150. Till then the stock is in a range of 90-120.

      Hi Sage,

      You have advised us to do a lot of research and pick small caps which can be potential multibaggers. Can you advice us how to go about this research..? I mean what all should we look at in order to identify these stocks..?

      Also is IVRCL a good buy..? If so, at what price?

      Thanx

      • Wednesday, November 25, 2009 at 7:40 am

        I will soon write a post on picking multibaggers (based on my experience).
        In construction sector- get hold of some small caps. They seem to have much more upside than the large players in the sector. IVCRL has gone sideways between 335 to 425. so you can pick it around 340 and sell around 415-420. Alternatively, you buy when the stock gets past 425 for targets of 500.

        • Puneet

      Your stock ideas of Hindustan Zinc was excellant. Since already it was on high I didn’t buy and missed the bus. Today I have noticed that Hindalco open interest been increased more than 35% for this month future and interesting the stock price is down as well as the premium also down? Is it under shorts or going to move upward? Please suggest.

      Need some advice on following.
      1)Holding Cairn at 285.Should I hold or sell – Need advice for short term.
      2)Should I Buy Bharti Airtel at CMP or wait for more fall?
      3)What’s your take on Satyam?.Can it reach 140-150 year end?

      Thank You.

      • Friday, November 20, 2009 at 5:21 pm

        Cairn- Hold
        As I am not a bottom picker, I’d avoid Bharti. 250-270 might be a possible bottom for Bharti.
        Satyam has failed to work. I’d hold it till end of the year to see if it manages to cross 128. There is too much of news flow on the stock.

      • Wednesday, November 18, 2009 at 8:08 am

        Sterlite looks set for 950-1000 in short term.
        Tata Motors is a slightly medium term bet with targets close to 750-800.
        JSW steel has already moved up and looks set to cross 1000.
        All these are good picks for riding the current uptrend.

      Hi Sage,
      I want to ask one generic question here about corporate actions section on BSE.
      Under that section we see the corporate benefits with EX DATE, i.e. those who buy the share one day before are entitled for benefit. Question is how to ensure that these details are correct? Can I sell them next day?

      • Wednesday, November 18, 2009 at 8:19 am

        But the details on BSE are those provided by the companies, that cannot be false.

          Buy share at price X before EX-DATE, sell on next day with price X+Brokerage(Both side).

          Is that possible? Need your confirmation and opinion…

        • Wednesday, November 18, 2009 at 10:09 am

      • Saturday, November 14, 2009 at 6:08 pm

        technically looks great but the stock is going up on very low volumes. The risk is that it can hit lower circuits with low volumes.
        Fundamentally, this is a stock with lots of “red flags”. You can trade this stock but keep a 20-30% stop loss to protect your downside.

        HDIL is a good bet while Indiabulls is a good exit on every bounce.
        HDIL can move up to 410 in short term and if it manages to sustain the uptrend then even 650-700 is not ruled out in slightly long term.

        UCO Bank is still a decent bet for next 3-4 weeks while IFCI is more news based and faces a lot of challenges.
        GVK needs to get past 50-52 levels before it can pick real momentum. Fundamentally I am not too much excited with the stock as there are many better bets available in the market. But this can be a decent short term bet for next couple of weeks.

        It is a high risk high gain stock. Looks some operator activity in the stock as the stock is hitting upper and lower circuits regularly. Upper circuit might entice you to buy but also imagine getting stuck in the lower circuit and not being able to exit!

        The stock faces tough challenege in the 1400 range. if the stock manages to cross 1430 then you can play for 1500+. Otherwise the stock is a range bound play between 1100-1400.

        The stock is showing clear signs of trend reversal. If the stock breaks below 680, the stock can quickly slide to 600.

      Hi Sage,

      I hold 55 shares of Bharti Airtel at an average of 329. Whats the future of this stock? Pls advise.

      • Wednesday, November 11, 2009 at 8:53 am

        Depends on your time frame. Telecom sector is going to go through a rough patch in next 6 months – 1 year. It is very likely that Bharti might come out a winner but one also needs to see the cost at which that happens. In the meantime, the stock might fall even more from current levels. it is very likely that the stock hits 240-250 range soon. I’d wait a bit more to see how the telecom game is played out. The stock shall take its time to bottom out. Just in case, the stock becomes available at very cheap valuations, it might become a value play.

      I always respect ur advice but this time I have an Objection.
      You have written that if conditions doesn’t improve company will die quickly.
      Companies see ups & downs in their journeys but a monopoly company like suzlon will die..its hard to digest.

      • Monday, November 9, 2009 at 11:17 pm

        Suzlon doesn’t have a monopoly. It is in a very competitive market.
        As far as death of companies are concerned, you should check the history of corporate world.Capitalism thrives on the death of the inefficient and survival of the best.

      Thanks

      • Monday, November 9, 2009 at 11:24 pm

        I’d suggest that you hold the stock for some time. If you feel that the risk is very high, you can consider booking partial profits to reduce your risk. The stock has a short term potential of 300+.

      • Friday, November 6, 2009 at 9:29 am

      Dear Sir,

      L&T got order for Rs.6897 Crore of Power Plant and their Profit is also increased. Likewise GRASIM who is monopoly for Viscose Staple Fibre also made steep profit.

      I think some crocodiles in the market purposely bringing down these shares to purchase from the small investors at bottom level. Afterwards they will sell at high level and book profit.

      Otherwise, it will not go so bottom level. These white collar executives also dance as per the music of these crocodiles.

      What do you feel Mr.Sage?

      RAO

      • Thursday, November 5, 2009 at 4:02 pm

        Mr. Rao- You seem to be little upset at your stock’s underperformance.
        On L&T and Grasim, you have to be a patient investor. these are not like Unitech/Suzlon that move 10% in a day.
        Grasim(along with other cement stocks) are looking bearish. Infact, I had booked my losses in ACC sometime back.
        L&T’s problem is order execution and valuation rather than “order book”.

      Hi Sage,

      Can you provide some insights on What are the current reasons for fall of Suzlon?
      What can be the Bottom.
      I have already incurred so much loss in this stock that I have assumed that I never ever had that money with me. Just want your confirmation to erase the memories of the same.

      If I try to remember about this money after 2 -4 yrs will it be a pleasant surprise?

      • Wednesday, November 4, 2009 at 5:37 pm

        The company has loads of debt and the business is not generating significant cash to service that debt. I need to analyse the company in details to find the triggers for “turnaround”. If the business environment doesn’t improve fast enough, the company will die quickly!
        It is very difficult to determine the bottom for the stock. 35 might be the level to watch out for.

        In the short term, all these stocks look bearish.

      Thanks for your help.

      • Sunday, November 1, 2009 at 3:48 pm

        Dena Bank-
        Hindalco- Around 100 might be a decent bet for a bounce.
        Lignite- I’d avoid the stock for long term but a short term bounce can be expected around 100-105 levels
        Dena Bank -45-50 is a good support for the stock and provides decent entry point.

      • Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 6:47 pm

        Jet is the classic case of shareholder value destruction!I am not aware of the recent rise in the stock. Also, there is nothing to cheer about in the recent results. May be if the stocks is available at 100-150 bucks, it might become a value play! Otherwise, it is best to trade the stock at suitable times for 10-20% gains.

      Rahul

      • Monday, October 26, 2009 at 7:24 pm

        DLF fell on the news of some income tax notice. Unitech has lost momentum and I’d avoid the stock from short to medium term perspective. DLF showed a lot of promise but today’s crack has taken away the short term uptrend that was developing. Still DLF looks the one of the best picks in the real estate.

      Dear Sage, What is your opinion on GVK POWER ? Can I switch over from NIIT to GVK POWER at present level? Please advice.In long term which will be more gainer? THANKS IN ADVANCE.

      • Thursday, October 22, 2009 at 9:51 pm

        NIIT Tech looks good from a medium to long term perspective.
        NIIT will pick momentum after it crosses 80. You can then see 100 pretty quickly.
        GVK might give some sharp upside in the short to medium term.

      Hi Sage,

      I am holding 200 Jaiprakash @ Rs. 264 and 500 Suzlon @ Rs. 87.65. I need to sell one of them what would be the best option.

      Kindly suggest.

      • Thursday, October 22, 2009 at 4:45 pm

        Suzlon is definitely not on my buy list.
        As far as JP is concerned, today’s downmove was a bit too sharp. I will watch to see if the stock stays above 220-225. Otherwise, I will exit.

      I just wonder why RIL is not moving up even after completion of two major project succesfully and declaring 1:1 bonus? OK – refinning margins came down, economy is just turning up etc etc. But, it was in anticipation of completion of these projects, RIL was above 3200/- during the peak. I think sentimental damage / uncertenity on a/c of Gas War has spoiled all Reliance scrips (including ADAG) and to lesser extend market in general. Even in worst case senario, RIL set to make profit at a lesser pace, hence not much material damage to RIL. Looks like a good buy @ CMP? Kindly avise.

      Thanks

      • Thursday, October 22, 2009 at 5:46 pm

        At some point of time RIL will be used to drive the NIFTY. You are correct in observing that investors are shying away from the stock due to the ongoing court case with RNRL. No trader will bet big on the stock till that event is over!
        The stock will turn out to be a good bet if energy prices continue their uptrend. With the economic recovery in sight, we might again see $100 on oil pretty soon.

      I have NIIT 200 baught @124 and STC 100 baught @336. Can I sell them at CMP? or wait for some more time..
      thanks for your advice.

      • Thursday, October 22, 2009 at 6:24 am

        NIIT -Hold. 90-95 is possible in medium term.
        STC- Hold for a 440-450 target. Keep a stop at 350.

        • Rekha
          Thursday, October 22, 2009 at 9:52 am

      Wednesday, October 21, 2009 at 9:37 pm

      Hi Sage,
      After doing some research bought cairn today @285.It closed @280 today itself.
      As a medium term holder should I Hold or Sell.
      Few analysts are expecting it to fall further to 220-240 levels.
      Also need your opinion on JP Associates.
      Thanks in advance.

      • Wednesday, October 21, 2009 at 9:45 pm

        I have booked partial profits in JP associates and riding the rest of the position. The stock still has the potential to reach 300.
        Cairn Energy is a pure play on crude oil. If crude sustains the up trend, you will see higher levels on the stock despite analysts’ opinions.
        Do not trade this stock w/o stop losses in place.

      How about
      VEER ENERGY
      WELSPUN GUJARAT
      USHA MARTIN
      AUSTRAL COKE

      Can buy at CMP ?

      • Wednesday, October 21, 2009 at 7:36 am

        Veer Energy- Avoid the stock.There are better stocks available.
        Welspun Gujarat- Looks a good long term bet. Use corrections to accumulate.
        Usha Martin- good short term bet
        Austral -Avoid. The stock has recently been hit by a scandal. If you like taking excessive risk, you can go for it.

      Hi,

      I’m hearing more on PTC nowadays and even you have disclosed about your holdings too. The stock came down a bit today(CMP : 100). Would you advise to buy it for an extreme short term trading perspective?

      Thanks,
      Arun Karthik

      Hi Sage,

      I wonder why this Suzlon has became a handicap stock whereas it was a STAR Performer at the beginning of the rally. Whats the maximum possible level you anticipate for this stock if company declares good results in coming quarters?

      • Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 5:54 pm

        The stock needs to do a lot of ground work before buying comes back into the stock. Also in the current market, investors want to look at “growth stocks” rather than turnaround stories.
        The market will reject companies with a “weak balance sheets” and who are constantly looking to raise money!

      Thanks

      • Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 9:42 pm

        If markets cross 5300 , then DLF can reach 600. 410-415 is a good base for the stock.

      • Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 9:47 pm

        ideally your stop should have been 56-57.
        Now a stop of 52 is appropriate. Below that a slip to 47 is not ruled out.

      How is 3i Infotech Looking ? Can i buy at this level with IT sector getting a revival at the same time , rupee raising currently…any info on targets will surely help

      • Monday, October 19, 2009 at 10:26 pm

        To be honest with you, although IT stocks are still in an uptrend, I am trimming my positions and are not advising fresh buys (may be some short term traders here and there). The stocks have run up a lot and we are in the process of taking money off the table. My sense is that the stocks will lose some momentum and may trade sideways.
        The prime reason for the same is rupee appreciation. I see some real good rupee appreciation in next 1-2 years!So it is a macro level call.
        You’d have noted that I was bearish on Infosys in 2007 and I have been very bullish on it since the start of this rally. Now I am turning neutral.

        Why do you feel like buying 3i infotech now? I am just curious to understand your reasons.
        Personally, I might trade the stock for good 15-20% moves but might not be interested in a long term bet.

        • Bala
          Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 10:39 pm

          I agree with you . Its a bit late to enter the counter . The reasons i thought were pure fundamentals. 3i being a IT product company available at decent valuations and also could be a potential acquisition target

      Hi Sage,

      What would you suggest to do with PTC & Petronet coming week..? You think they are good buys for now..?

      Appreciate your response. Thanks.

      • Monday, October 19, 2009 at 10:18 pm

        Yes, I have myself bought some PTC. I am looking for 130+ on the stock with stops around 95. You might find it a bit more risky but as a trader I like such momentum plays.

        • a sri
          Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 5:10 am

      Monday, October 19, 2009 at 3:03 pm

      Dear Sage,
      I have 250 Sesagoa @135/- (average) which I am holding for 12-15 mths. I am a long term investor and generally putting in money from the saving which need not to be touched for 5 years or more. Should I hold it or book profit now.(Most of my other stocks are in loss except RIL, Aban etc but over all I am in 20% profit)

      Thanks.

      • Monday, October 19, 2009 at 3:09 pm

        The stock is having a parabolic run. Two options for you-
        Option 1- Ride the uptrend till the stock starts to reverse.
        Option 2- Book partial profits(say sell 30-50% of quantity) and ride the rest.
        It is never a good idea to sell your winners and keep your losers!So ride this to the moon.
        If your losers are not moving,you might want to give more attention to them!

        • Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 8:12 am

          Do not buy on the sole basis of rising order book. Look what happened to stocks like L&T and BHEL in 2007. If the stocks become too overvalued, then the future growth gets factored in pretty quickly.
          Also you have to see if they can “execute” on time. Check their past record.

          In short term, the stock(reliance Infra) looks bullish and might jump in next couple of weeks/months.

      premier ltd. 57sh@175

      • Saturday, October 17, 2009 at 4:46 pm

        Mcdowell- The stock needs to get past 100. Otherwise, it shall stay in range.Still bearish in long term.You can choose to cut your losses here and invest in something else. have a re-look at the stock after it gets past 100.
        Taneja- Again the stock is a 30-50 range. I’d exit the stock now and ride the trend somewhere else.
        Premier- I had suggested a long on this stock couple of weeks back and you should hold this stock.Possibility of 200+ on this stock is bright.

      Hi Sage 🙂
      I need your inputs to invest in Mutual funds for Tax savings. Please suggest, if i should go ahead and invest now or wait for couple of months?

      As well, Please suggest me a Plan in your mind for a time span of 25 years. Thanks 🙂

      • Thursday, October 15, 2009 at 4:58 pm

        I’d suggest that you invest now as your investments might be locked for 3 years.
        I don’t have a plan for 25 years but you can make plan to make 15%+ on your investments every year. That should multiply 1 lakh to your 33 lakh.
        If you manage to do it at 20%, then your 1 lakh shall be worth 95 lakhs.
        So it is better to be conservative and invest in different assets to achieve your target return.

      I have been tracking your blog since more than 2 months, i am also tracking other blogs too. But there is no one who shares knowledge like you do. In fact I have seen few times where in you suggest a stock first and then in next few days its there in all TV channels and other places but y that time the stock would have already moved by 4-10% from your suggested price.
      Please keep up the good work and God Bless you

        Thanks for your support. If my knowledge and experience helps others, it is worthwhile sharing it. Also, to be honest with you I have disliking for financial media because their loyalties lie with the financial powerhouses rather than the ordinary investors.

      Dear sage, please advice me wheather Teledata Technology Solutions Ltd is wise to buy now? it is now moving up. current price is rs 6.88 only. Also please tell me what to do about NIIT? SENSEX Is growing but still NIIT is stagnant. I VERY MUCH LIKE AND DEPEND ON YOUR NICE ADVICE. PLEASE RESPONCE.THANKING YOU IN ADVANCE.

      • Wednesday, October 14, 2009 at 10:06 pm

        Teledata is a good short term bet as I had pointed out earlier. A target of 12 is possible if you are willing to take risks.NIIT will move once it crosses 75-80 zone.

      Dear sage,
      Have made 50% loss in  FRESENIUS KABI ONCOLOGY LIMITED(Dabur Pharma). I’m willing to hold it another 2 month at most.
      What would be your opinion.

      Regards,

      • Wednesday, October 14, 2009 at 5:21 pm

        Hold and keep a stop at 65. There is a probability of a short term rebound.
        One general suggestion which might help you- Before you buy any stock, make sure you understand the “reasons” why you are in. If those reasons are not valid any more, then you simply exit. otherwise, you might be left stuck with a big loser.

      Hi Sage,
      I am planning to buy Dalmia Cement. I am a short term investor of 3 to 4 months expecting around 15 to 20% returns. Today’s stock price is 168.85. Can I enter at this level?
      Please advise.
      Thanks,
      Eashwari.

      • Wednesday, October 14, 2009 at 5:24 pm

        Cement has disappointed so far. You can buy keeping a stop around 155. If the stock doesn’t move up in next 2-3 weeks, you simply exit.
        As your time frame is 3-4 months, you can take a bet. Had it been 3-5 weeks, I’d have advised to avoid this stock.

        Hold as the stock is a slow mover and shows sudden jumps. The stock can reach 560 and 600 in next 2-3 months. Keep a stop at 430.

      Sage,
      I could notice that plenty of block deals happen in ICICI Bank at the closing hours. It seems FII & MF been buying heavily on this. Is it advisable to enter at current price for short term gain?

      • Tuesday, October 13, 2009 at 10:14 pm

        My medium term targets were 970-1000. They might be reached. If they don’t, you get out with a small loss.
        ( I do not buy based on block deals as FIIs/MFs can be as dumb as the retail investors. All of us know what happened to MFs and FIIs in 2008.)

      Dear Sage,
      we cannot time the stock market, as they say. i have few stocks in mind which i would like to buy for a longterm, between 4 to 5 Years or for value, such that the stocks appreciates more than 60% to 70% in 3 to 4 years. i would like to know fundamentally what would be ideal price range to enter and buy these stocks in the next 6 months. the stocks are BHEL, HDFC, RIL, STERLITE, AMBUJA CEMENTS, TCS, ONGC,GE SHIPPING, SBI, VOLTAS, EDUCOMP, NESTLE, SUN PHARMA and CIPLA. are these stocks good ones to buy and hold for a long term. will there be any major corrections in the near term say in the next 3 to 4 months (for a better buy). or will there be another crash (night mare)like the one in 2008.
      i will be very happy to hear from you.
      Thanks once again.

      • Tuesday, October 13, 2009 at 5:09 pm

        Couple of thoughts:
        -On what basis have you selected these scrips?
        -There are certain contradictions in what you are thinking. One one hand you say that stock markets can not be timed whereas on the other hand you ask if there will be a 2008 like crash in the future (prediction). Is there an intent to time the markets?

      • Tuesday, October 13, 2009 at 1:40 pm

        Too early to say if it is bullish. The stock needs to stay bullish for couple of more sessions and needs to make an attempt to cross 85. Otherwise, a move back to 60 is on the cards.

      Dear Sage,

      Can I enter EDSERV solution at this stage (CMP 183.35) ? What is the future of this company ? PPl are telling this will go like EDUCOMP.

      Please give your valuable suggestion.

      • Tuesday, October 13, 2009 at 1:47 pm

        The stock has a very strong uptrend. I remember seeing the stock at 40 odd levels back in June-July. Entry at this level can be more risky as more and more people jump on to the bandwagon. (Look what happened with HOEC)
        So for entry at this level, you have to cover your tracks and put a stop loss at around 150. This stock can easily go to 300+ or fall back to 50. To summarise, if you are not a disciplined trader, it might be better to avoid this beauty.

      Hi sage

      I am a long-term investor. I want to know what would be the appropriate time to enter the mkts now. Can we expect some 10-20% correction in near term.

      • Tuesday, October 13, 2009 at 10:51 am

        I do not and cannot predict corrections. I believe in “reacting” to corrections. Right now the scepticism is too much. I have been hearing these constant rumours of markets falling after Diwali and all. As an investor, stay away from these rumours. I first heard in July that Sensex will fall back to 11000 and look what happened.
        while a 10-20% correction cannot be ruled out, the probability of it happening in Dec-Jan time frame is much higher.(just speaking statistically).
        Finding value in this market is going to be tough. A lot of value was there when NIFTY was below 3000. Now it is more about momentum.

      hi,

      i am holding two future lots of bharti airtel @ 385. whether my purchase price will be reached.

      It will be great if could let me know the due date bharti q2 results.

      Further, for my undertanding i wish to know that airtel was underperforming due to MTN deal ( i.e its price shd be around 500 comparing its peers corresponding price to NIFTY). Now, due to per second concept it is again underperforming whithout reviving its corresponding price. Why airtel is hit by a double whammy.

      • Monday, October 12, 2009 at 8:10 pm

        Telecom stocks in general have been hit due to “price wars”. Already ARPUs were under pressure and with so much of new competition (Unitech Wireless,Shyam telecom etc.) , the market has grown sceptical of the sector.
        The stock fell badly because a lot of people were long on the stock. 370 should have been your stop loss if you bought at 385. Trading futures w/o guidance and knowing your risk is like playing with fire!
        Trading is all about “present” and managing your risk.
        As far as Bharti is concerned, I am looking to short the stock on every rise. if the stock crosses, 370 then you might see 380. Otherwise, it is better to cut your losers and trade something else to recover your losses. If you get tend to get stuck with a single trade, then you should not be in this game.
        Tell me what will you do if NIFTY falls by 100 points and Bharti falls by another 10% !
        (Not trying to scare you but making you aware of the risks)

        This might be the right time to book partial profits in IT sector.
        Banking sector is still doing fine and is likely to move higher.
        Real estate stocks like Unitech are decent bets but they are very volatile stocks.so one should not be overweight on these stocks.

      • Saturday, October 10, 2009 at 3:18 pm

        I have been bearish on Suzlon from a long term perspective. if the markets correct a bit more Suzlon can slide to 70 and then even 50. In the current market, you can find many better choices for next 6-9 months. Look out for FMCG, auto ,Pharma or Banking sector.
        Suzlon is yet to show any signs of turnaround.

      Is ISPAT a good scrip to enter at this point for 15-20% gains in 3 months.

      Sir I want to know about Agro Dutch Industries, have bought it at average of 14/-?

      • Friday, October 9, 2009 at 6:49 am

        The stock is in a tight range of 12-14. So put a stop at 12 as the stock can fall to 10 or below if it falls below 12.

        The stock looks a good short term bet. In medium term, the stock might correct or consolidate.

      • Friday, October 9, 2009 at 6:50 am

        RIL has been a disappointment. I have myself exited this counter taking a small loss. I will re-enter when it shows me some promise again.

      Dear Sage,

      I have MIC electronics 500 @Rs.56 , Infosys 50 @Rs.2355, SBI 20 @2275. Can you please advise what is the future of these stocks?

      • Thursday, October 8, 2009 at 9:35 pm

        Your buy rate in Infosys and SBI was a little off as some profit booking is happening in these counters.
        MIC is in a bearish trend in the long term but sideways in the short term. keep a stop at 45.

      Dear Sage,
      i am a longterm investor with a time horizon of 5 Years. i want to build a portifolio of some good companies may be 10 to 15 Max, across sectors. i had invested a few lakhs and lost much during the 2008 market crash. i have learnt a lesson from this crash and i need your suggestion on some of the good stocks in the current scenario to buy and hold for long term (5 Yrs) by fresh entry to market from now onwards in the next 3 to 4 months. first, is this a good approach ? even my earlier investment were for long term but some where before the midway the market crashed and went into loss heavily. many of the companies are much below their high’s. and some good stocks got thro’ IPO allotments are quoting below the issue price. i cannot get away from this (stock market) also, as i have seen the markets and understand the ups and downs and many times i very much tempted to enter into the market. my goal is to double the invested amount in the next 4 to 5 years, (from this 10 to 15 stocks).
      OR
      this could not be the approch to play in stock market and one has to buy and sell continuosly to make money in stock market? and in that case is Mutual Fund the best option for a ong term investor.
      i will be very happy to hear from you.
      Thanks Once again.

      • Friday, October 9, 2009 at 7:04 am

        Before 2008 crash, anyone could have easily sold you “buy and hold” strategy. With today’s globally integrated markets, the risks are too high. You can still build a 10-15 stock portfolio for next 3-5 years but you need to monitor and evaluate that portfolio on a regular basis. this is because all the 10-15 stocks you choose might not perform according to expectations.
        Even if you invest in mutual funds, you have to monitor the broader market moves so as to plan your exits. In mutual funds, I think index investing works the best. This is because 80-90% of MFs underperform the main indices and charge huge fees. Which means that you invest in a few “index funds” that track the NIFTY.
        I don’t think it is necessary to be a short term trader to make money. Infact some of the better trades I had were held for more than 1 year. It all depends on your own mental style. If you find it too stressful, you should never indulge into it.
        If you wish to invest for slightly longer term, then next 3-4 months might not be right for you.(again depend on market trend). Ideally a long term investor like you should wait for a mini-crash and then put his money.
        Finally – you have to understand that there are no “right ” answers in investing and that’s why it is so challenging.

        I don’t know the reason. (Also I don’t care much about that). I invested only in Yes bank and IOB among the mid cap banks. There are many large cap names like SBI and HDFC Bank which are catching investor’s attention.

        Bharti showed some promise when it looked like getting past 450. Now the stock is in a bear grip.Markets never like industries that indulge in price wars!
        Telecom market is soon going to be crowded with the entry of so many players. the growth phase in voice services is gone now, therefore the operators need to look beyond voice!3G might be another game changer in the space.

        IFCI went up and is now back in consolidation mode. The stock is still a good bet for medium to long term.
        Sterlite is a good bet in short term as well as medium term. It is a pure bet on commodities.

Brand name, relatively few competitors ( Prestige- gone into real estate business), continuous five years of increasing EPS, less debt, really good ROE and ROCE and on top of that cool dividend yield.
      My question is -can it be a multi-bagger from CMP?

      • Sunday, October 4, 2009 at 7:31 pm

      • Sunday, October 4, 2009 at 6:29 am

        The stock lacks momentum in the short to medium term and will pick up only after it manages to cross 50.
        In the medium term the stock is fine and can be held with stop losses of 35.
        In the long term, I’d still avoid the stock till it shows some clear uptrend (similar to an ICICI or SBI or HDFC bank)

      • Sunday, October 4, 2009 at 6:34 am

        It is good that you just want to trade the stock rather than hold it for long. Stock like these only rise in bull markets and fall like nine pins in a bear market.
        Currently the stock is not a good candidate for momentum trading but it is near the low end of its 7-12 range. So you can buy keeping a stop at 6.70 and trade the bounce back.
        For trading short term momentum, there are many other rockets available in the market. Better to pick one of those.

      • Sunday, October 4, 2009 at 6:52 am

        Going to 200 depends on market momentum. I’d keep a target of 140-150 in a month or two if trends remain intact.

        The stock is in a 140-180 range. Currently the stock has a downward bias. A fall below 140 can take the stock back 110-120. A breakout above 180 will take it to 210.

        the stock can see even lower levels. I’d advise you to switch to a better counter. The stock has fallen from 300 to 50 and continues to fall.
        The stock is trading at all time lows, so there are no supports on the downside.The stock had the potential for a free fall.

        hold DCHL.
        if you are a medium term player than keep a stop at 90. If you are short term player keep a stop around 105.
        On the upside 170 and 2225-230 are likely targets in short and medium term.

        The momentum is strong.So crossing 60 is very likely. The stock might consolidate before doing so.

      • Thursday, October 1, 2009 at 11:25 am

        The stock is very volatile. Trade with a stop at 25. If the stock manages to cross 37-38 again, you might see 50 on the stock.

      Dear Sage,

      Pls advice on short term prospective of INOX LEISURE,INDUSIND BANK &INDIACEMENTS.

      • Friday, October 2, 2009 at 9:53 pm

        Inox- Looks good in the short term. Entry around 57-58.
        IndusInd – good bet in the short term
        Indiacements- Not a great short term bet.

        You can your stocks on dips. More important is to decide before hand if you want to invest for long term or short term.

      • Saturday, September 26, 2009 at 8:34 pm

        Suresh- Bhagyanagar will bring “good luck” only after it picks momentum to cross 30. Till then stock is in a 20-30 range. If you wish to enter, buy it close to 20 with a tight stop loss.

        The stock is just consolidating and 300 might be a good entry point for a short term bounce. Below 300, the stock can have a sharp fall.

      Is it advisable to enter at the current levels> this scrip has failed to ride the momentum in the last four months.

      (2) REC
      Is it worth holding on to this. I have bought it at 202.

      • Saturday, September 26, 2009 at 7:00 am

        Koutons Retail- Avoid the stock as this stock is in a deep downtrend. See if it finds buying support at 300 and bounces from there.
        REC- Hold with a stop at 175.

      Thanks

      • Wednesday, September 23, 2009 at 10:10 pm

        Suresh- Here is what I think (short to medium term perspective):
        Glenmark is in a deep mess, so I’d avoid/exit the stock.
        Microtech if it manages to get past 170, 200-220 will be on cards pretty quickly. Looks a decent bet in medium term.
        GMR – The stock is sideways and won’t pick up till the buyers take it past the 150-160 range. So I’d exit now and reconsider when momentum picks up.

      • Wednesday, September 23, 2009 at 9:41 pm

        Keep a stop at 7.5. the stock has lost short term momentum and needs to cross 10-11 to reach 13+. Below 7.5 it can quickly slip to 5.

        It is difficult to say which will be in uptrend. Focus on sectors and stocks which are in current uptrend. Focus your energies on reacting to market moves rather than predicting market moves. Look how IT, auto and banking has been moving steadily over the past few months.

      Hi Sage,

      I have Marico @ 89.
      What do u suggest?
      Should i hold or exit as this scrip is not showing any momentum?
      I am a short term trader.
      Thanks in advance.

        You probably picked a wrong scrip for short term trading. Marico is a defensive scrip so this might not move as fast as other momentum plays.
        The stock is a good long term buy but might not be great short term pick as the it is spending time in consolidation. Pick it up again when it gathers some momentum.

          Looks good for short and medium term. 170-175 possible. Keep a stop at 135.

      • Tuesday, September 22, 2009 at 7:09 pm

        Arun – Hold electrosteel for targets of 60 with a stop around 35.

        Ackruti is in a range of 500-600. Take a position when it breaks out of this range.
        Amtek India- Stop at 50. Target of 75-80 in medium term.

          I do not invest based on news and rumours. So I might not be able to guide you in this regard. Operators usually spread these rumours to jack up the price of a stock. You might do well to invest in a quality name.

      Hi Sage,
      This query is about Bartronics India which has monopoly in RFID and SMART CARD business.
      So it fits into one of Warren Buffett’s criteria. But is it a value buy at CMP?
      Please Do reply.
      Vikas

      • Monday, September 21, 2009 at 6:17 pm

        Vikas- RFID and Smart card technologies can be provided by global players like IBM also. I have not done any valuation exercise on Bartronics but can tell you how the stock looks technically.
        The stock looks a decent medium term bet and I see a target of 200 and 250 very much on the cards. A stop at 150 is very reasonable.

        Punjab Comm- Target of 50 is possible in the short term. Stop at 30.

      • Monday, September 21, 2009 at 6:25 pm

        Hold Aban. the company is raising equity to reduce debt and if the oil price continues the uptrend, higher levels(2000 and 2500) on aban are on the cards.
        BPCL- Ride with a stop at 475. stock is very volatile and not good for short term trading.

      Sir,

      I have Gujarat NRE coke @ Rs. 69.70/-. Should I hold or sell the share

      • Monday, September 21, 2009 at 2:18 pm

        Richa- To be honest I exited the stock around 70 last week as we entered around 60 and had made 15%+ in a week.
        the stock is still good for medium term and you might see 80-85 in next few weeks if the uptrend remains intact. My only concern- too many people have bought the stock on bonus news. I usually reduce my position/sell the stock on such rumours.
        So please keep a stop at around 60, just in case the stock starts to reverse sharply.

      • Monday, September 21, 2009 at 1:04 pm

        Rangarajan- Good for short term. stop at 8.5 and target of 18-20 if the uptrend sustains.
        BTW- How did you pick this stock?
        (FYI- The stock fell from a peak of 45 to a low of 5 during last bear market)

        suresh- The stock is showing no momentum in short term and medium term. I’d exit the stock and pick something else. You can have a re look at the stock if it starts to climb towards 50 and crosses that.

      • Monday, September 21, 2009 at 1:08 pm

        whats the buzz and what are the targets being talked out?
        Although I stay away from market rumours, it is good to know about them. We had traded this giant mover last time also in 2007. Moves very sharply!I remember that it had moved from 50 to 350 in two flat months back in 2007.
        Currently, it is a sleeping giant. If you are an aggressive trader, you can buy now keeping a stop at 140-45 for a 200 target in next 4-7 weeks.

      can i quit and switch any other stock? which stock is good for one month

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, September 20, 2009 at 11:39 pm

        Your entry in Hindalco was a bit off. So the stock carries a higher risk for you. My subscribers have already made 30%+ on the stock as it was recommended close to 110. So it carries less risk for such traders. The stock is still in a buy mode for longer term investors.
        Reliance is a good hold but keep a stop at 2000.
        Opto is again a decent hold but from a longer term perspective. In short term the stock might just consolidate a bit.
        Pantaloon is gain a hold but stock needs to get past 350 for a target of 400-420.

        It is important to have right entries and exits if you are a short term trader. Without that you might be relying a lot more on your luck!

        Value buying should have been done when sensex was below 10k. It is very difficult to say as to when Rpower will actually create value for its shareholders. We shall play the stock here and there for some quick momentum gains. For long term, I’d still avoid the stock.

        Artson- Buy keeping a stop at 44. It is a risky stock so be cautious. Buy in small quantity if you wish to take a punt.

        Saturday, September 19, 2009 at 7:27 pm

        Laya- I’d hold these stocks if you are a slightly long term investor/trader (4 months+). If you are a short term trader, then you need to have stops to cover your risk. You can never take such stocks for granted. They move up sharply and reverse sharply in the short term.

    353. Satish

      Pls. suggest which is the best stock from below three for short term or medium term and also according to you when should I buy this stock. 1) Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd., 2) TCS & 3) Oracle Financial Services Software Ltd.

      Thanks in advance

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, September 19, 2009 at 7:23 pm

        All look great. the choice depends on your personal portfolio risk and diversification. Dr. Reddy might have more juice in the short term. Actually I had suggested the stock to my subscribers last week around 820-830 levels. Some move has already happened and some juice might still be left.
        I like TCS and oracle also- have traded these many times in the recent past. Oracle is part of long term portfolios.

        A scrip going down in a market moving up -what does this tell you? Do you think the scrip will move up when markets start to correct?

      • sagecapital
        Friday, September 18, 2009 at 7:42 am

        Raj – Fortis is very volatile and can even touch 95-100 in a correction. On the upside it faces challenge in the 120+ range. If you remain patient with the stock, you might see some gains.

      I m holding 950 shares of Gujarat Nre Coke avg @55 from last one year.You suggested me once it will cross its resistance level 60 then it will move to 72-75 ,it has crossed its resistance level reached (71.4) and CMP(67.6).But from past two days it is going down and seems to me some bonus shares & dividend news are there.So please suggest what to do now?

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 17, 2009 at 6:30 pm

        Simple mantra- sell on news and rumours. When others are willing to buy the news, you sell your stuff to them. This is the reason why I entered at 60-61 and exited around 70 (15%+ in a week). I might re-enter depending on the when the rumours die.

        MK- I like Firstsource as a stock. I see much better days ahead for the stock.
        NIIT- Look decent. I will wait till the stock crosses the wall of 75-80.

      Hi,
      I have been looking at PSU banks and have seen a lot of movement with most of them in recent times. I bought Dena Bank 1000@ 57 some time back. I am looking forward for a correction, so that I can enter some of these banks again and increase my lot size. Kindly let me know whether I am thiking rightly? Thanks.

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 17, 2009 at 6:35 pm

        Your thinking is on the right line. Good luck!
        We have made good profits on many of the banks in last 1-2 weeks.
        Just one word of caution- please don’t overload your portfolio with banking stocks as the sector might be negatively affected when growth and inflation picks up and there is a talk of rising interest rates.

        I have already commented on Sterlite. I like the stock from medium and long term perspective. In short term, the movement is very volatile which makes it a difficult trading candidate.

      Hi…

      Might sound weird to you.. but just a quick query. If i were to ask you at this hour on what would be your favourite (scrip)pick today and what would be the target? I am asking this cos i have booked profits in all my exisiting stocks and sitting idle watching the market and enjoying this run.. Just wanted to take some calculated risk with your advise. Just one stock advise from you and ill buy few and watch.

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 17, 2009 at 10:29 am

        Now you can watch stocks “moving up” and “miss the move”. Do you have a re-entry strategy? I wonder how you are enjoying the market when you are not in and stocks are moving up! had I been in your place, I might have felt a bit of pain- the pain of missing out !

      Regards

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 17, 2009 at 8:28 am

        Avoid TV 18 as of now. Infact, I’d short the stock if it rises. I hate CNBC as they fool the retail investors!On a serious note- the stock is in a deep bear grip.
        IDFC is interesting and let’s see if it crosses 150. The stock is on my radar.
        Neyvile- This again is waiting to pick up some momentum. Again on the radar.

      Hi Sage,
      One general knowledge question I have not specific to any stock,
      When I purchase a share on BSE can I sell it on NSE & vice versa?
      How the prices on both the exchanges are mostly hand in hand with each other?

      Thanks a lot
      Sachin

      • sagecapital
        Wednesday, September 16, 2009 at 7:14 am

        once you buy a stock from an exchnage, it comes to your demat account. After that you can again buy/sell on any of the exchnages.
        The prices are hand in hand because of the arbitrage opportunity.
        Assume a stock is quoting at 105 on NSE and 100 on BSE. Immediately traders shall recognise that and sell the stock on NSE and buy the stock on BSE thus earning a risk free return. As more and more traders recognise this opportunity, the price difference narrows. That’s why you see a close tracking of prices. Whenever there is a mismatch, arbitrage happens and prices again begin to track each other.

        McLeod is a nice bet with a stop around 170.
        Jayshree Tea- Nice bet with a stop around 250.
        Ideally June- July was the right time to get into these stocks. Now these bets are a bit more risky (although still some gains to be made)

        Sintex- 260 is a big hurdle for the stock in medium term. If the stock absorbs the supply at 260, the stock can be a potential rocket. Fundamentally, the stock looks decent with revival in global economies.

        Broker forced you to buy?
        Usually brokers force you to sell in case of margin calls!
        The stock is in a nice uptrend, so you might get 65.

        Exits depend on your trading style. You might choose to take your 10-20% and move away or hold the stock for bigger gains (at bigger risk). If you are aiming for 50% returns, you should be mentally prepared to lose 10-20% on the stock or give up your existing 15% of gains.

        Hold for a few more days and see if it crosses 110. If it doesn’t, dump the stock. It seems that a lot of investors are stuck in this counter, so fresh supply is hiting the stock whenever it moves up.

      Also, you must ask these questions before you put your money into a stock. Everest Kanto looks a good short term trading bet. It still needs to show a long term uptrend.

      • sagecapital

        Every stock that ends up being good in the long term starts from being good in the short term. As I am not a “buy and hold” investor, I might not be able to suggest you a stock and then sit over it for next 3-5 years. You must have seen the consequences of the same in 2008.

        There are many stocks which are doing much better than Adani or NHPC. Infact, I am surprised that there are still many stocks that are giving 6-10% in a week’s time!
        So it might be better to pick such stocks. Adani and NHPC have supply overhang.

      🙂 Need your advise/suggestions on Glenmark? is it advisable to buy at current levels. How about NHPC>> is it good to stay invested in NHPC for long term? REI agro has been moving between 45 and 49 for the past two weeks, do u suggest getting in to it now?(i ve read you asking to stay away from REI abt 2 weeks back? How abt it now?)

      Hi Sage,

      I want some general information like, how to know which day a particular company is going to declare results?, which company is going to declare dividend/bonus?
      so that before bulk reacts we can make move..

      One more request…if possible please add a section under investor education & educate us for using Futures & Options with some simple examples.

      I know I am asking too much for free but I think your style to expalin can make us uderstand better than anyone else…

      Thanks

      Dear Sir,
      How about Alok Industries and Arvind Mills? For long term these scrips are good one? Pl reply. Thanks

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, September 6, 2009 at 2:01 pm

        Alok Industries need to get past 27-28 to begin a long term uptrend. Till then , the stock is range bound.
        Arvind Mills looks interesting as the stock can reach 40-45 once it gets past 35.

      I have 40% of my pool on GVK POWER & GMR INFRA from 3 months. Still shld i hold or sell .Pls advice.

      • sagecapital
        Friday, September 4, 2009 at 11:21 am

        It is always risky to have a concentrated portfolio.
        GVK is not able to get past 50. re-enter only after this level.
        GMR is sideways with a downward bias. Needs to cross 150 to show any sign of momentum.

      • sagecapital
        Friday, September 4, 2009 at 10:17 am

        120 possible in the short term possible but doesn’t look to be in long term uptrend. So as a trader you might place a short term bet.

      Dear Sir,

      How about NHPC? Can I buy this scrip at this rate (around Rs.36)? What is the future? Please reply.Thanks

      • sagecapital
        Friday, September 4, 2009 at 10:14 am

        I would not look at NHPC right now as the stock failed to pick momentum. There are many other stocks which look good in the short to medium term.

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 11:17 pm

        Neutral. A decent trade could be to buy around 250 and sell around 300. Long term bullish but medium term sideways.

      Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 10:40 pm

      Dear Sir,

      I had bought RIL 300 @ 2000/-. Now it is down. Please advise the move in RIL so that i could pla my strategy.

      Regards / Prasanna

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 11:15 pm

        Prasanna- I had indicated earlier also that RIL faces tough resistance at 2100. Till it crosses that, the stock might just languish. If you want to trade, it is like buy around 1850 and sell around 2100. Below 1850, the stock can crack badly to 1700.
        I am not too sure if you are trading RIL or buying for a longer term.

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 11:35 pm

        The stock is in a very tight range of 213 to 230. The stock can fall to 170-180 if it goes below 210. So keep your stops there.

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 11:33 pm

        The stock has not performed as per the expectations because of fall in copper prices. as long as stock stays above 600, the chances of 700+ are still there.

    466. Arun
      Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 1:45 pm

      Hi,

      Need your advise on Raj Oil Mills. Is it wise if i invest to buy at the current levels. I intend to buy around 1000nos @ 85. Your advises/suggestions have ONLY helped me all these days.. And i also want to thank you for the same.

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 11:22 pm

        Raj Oil Mills – My sincere advice would be to stay out of this stock as this stock might be hammered a lot below 85. It might be too risky just in case overall market corrects a bit more.
        Still if you wish to buy keep a tight stop loss, so that your risk is low.

        • Arun
          Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 11:41 pm

        Good. The chances of 100 are bright. Keep a stop at 65.

      thanks a lot

      • sagecapital
        Wednesday, September 2, 2009 at 3:58 pm

        Great idea to invest in Gold ETFs. NIFTY bees is a good way to invest in NIFTY. That is an easy way to get market returns.

      • sagecapital
        Wednesday, September 2, 2009 at 9:48 am

        Exits depend on your overall risk and investing style. Long term guys go for more risk and more gain while short term guys go for less risk and less reward.
        So a short term momentum trader would take his 10-15% and get away while a longer term guy might aim for 30-50% and is willing to take extra risk for that.

        Chambal can be a good entry around 47-48 for quick bounces. Long term trend is still sideways between 50 to 60.
        Nagarjuna is also sideways and trading in 30-40 range.

      • sagecapital

        Premier- Hold the stock as the stock can reach 150+ in short to medium term.
        TCI- The stock faces some challenge in the 90-100 range. It will pick momentum once passes this hurdle. So hold on to see if that happens. On the downside, 65 is a strong support.

        Fundamentally Mascon is a crap stock.
        Technically, the stock has some short term momentum. keep a stop at around 5 to ride the momentum. Book some partial profits if it goes to 6.

      whether it is worth entering in stocks such as glenmark and balrampur chini at current mkt price.

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 30, 2009 at 3:36 pm

        Glenmark- For trading purposes, I’d pick it around 200 with strict stop losses for some rebounds. If it stays below 200, the stock can get really bearish.
        Balrampur Chini- The tsokc is under correction after an uptrend. 100 is a good level to add.

      Hi Sir,
      I am planning to buy Allied Digital Services Ltd for a term of 4 -5 months at the current price of 450 what’s you suggestion.

      • sagecapital
        Wednesday, August 26, 2009 at 1:25 am

        The stock doesn’t look that bad from short term perspective as a target of around 500 is possible. Beyond that, 650 might be possible. use a stop of around 400 to trade this.
        My only concern- All the It sector has been running hard. The upside trend can reverse any time. So please be mindful of that risk when you invest.

      Hi Sage, i have Unitech 2000@Rs.400 Will i get back to my price anytime in the future. I want your valuable suggestion. Please help me. When will it show good momemtum and get back to rally ?

      • sagecapital
        Wednesday, August 26, 2009 at 1:40 am

        Unitech will start moving only after it crosses 100. Then too reaching 400 looks a little difficult. 200 might be more probable if the the stock catches market’s fancy. You have to understand that there are many investors like you who might be trapped and are waiting to sell their stock at every higher level.
        A smarter strategy might be to get out of the stock and make your money anywhere else. when the stock starts to move, then you can perhaps re enter.

      • sagecapital
        Tuesday, August 25, 2009 at 7:55 pm

        I DO NOT recommend day trading. It is sure shot way to lose money in a quick time for a retail investor. Try swing or positional trading. it can be profitable. The best is to have long term trading.
        Although I do look at fundamentals from time to time, they do not offer much value during trading. I only use fundamentals to filter good companies from the bad ones. Occasionally(very rare) I do recommend even not so good fundamental companies ,just in case they offer good trading opportunity.
        You can check company financials on any website. Business Standard is a good one.

      Hi,
      i am a long term Investor and have been investing since 2005. but i lost heavily during the crash of 2008 and the bad thing is i couldn’t get out of it, thinking the market will go up. i believed in “India shining theory” and didn’t book my profits(which was very good). now i am unable to take any decision on this, as many of my stocks are yet to reach (some my purchase price) the price which were attained during 2007. i have also not averaged by buying at lower levels, as whatever i bought during/after Mid 2008, got beaten down again. similarly i have lost some good amount in Mutual Funds, where the NAV is much below the face value of Rs.10/-. i am confused and would like to know your advise on this, and will be very thankfull to you.

      • sagecapital
        Tuesday, August 25, 2009 at 8:05 pm

        I can understand your pain and confusion. I would write a detailed post on this topic. Meanwhile, you have to remember that many of your stocks might NEVER reach their 2007 highs, however optimistic you might feel. At the same time, many of them might even cross their 2007 highs and go on to make new highs. The challenge for you is to filter such stocks.
        It is always good to learn from mistakes and move ahead!

        Good stock for trading. We had in fact made decent money in 2007 on this stock when it had a clean run.
        Right now, the stock is facing a minor hurdle around 245. The stock is on my radar and might jump anytime. My targets would be around 280-300 in the short to medium term. My stop would be around 220.

        Get out of these penny stocks.
        GV films- 2 is a big hurdle. Above that 2.2
        Nandan Exim – Above 2, 2.5 might be possible
        Spice Mobiles- Exit at current price(around 60) and switch
        Spicejet- Hold. Around 35-40 possible on the stock in short term. Sell if the stock fails to cross 30.

        62-63 was a better entry. if you are ok with the risk, then you might. short term targets are around 80. Alternatively, you can wait for some sharp corrections and then add the stock.
        Either way, you have to assume certain risk. depends a lot on your style- some people like to buy pull backs while other want to buy the up trend.

        Hold the stock and see if it crosses 200 on the upside. Once it does, it is very likely to reach 230-240 in next couple of weeks. The stock has picked good momentum and needs to sustain that for the rest of the week.

        Coming back to the stock- The stock is currently dead lying in the 100-120 range. Needs to show some momentum. I’d hold the stock if it starts to trade above 120-130.

        Right now we are looking at 4750-4850 as the first target. If it sustains that, then 5000 is on the cards. Otherwise, we might again begin the journey back to 4350-4400. Probabilities favour scenario 1.

      • sagecapital
        Monday, August 24, 2009 at 7:14 pm

        The stock is in the process of correction and can go down to 8000.
        Unfortuntately you are holding a big quantity. I’d advise you to reduce the quantity and diversify your holdings. Watch for level of 8700 on the downside.
        I do not encourage intra day trading as it is very difficult for retail traders to make money. So stick to positional trading where you can make 10-30% in positional trades or 50%+ in 1-2 months with less than 5-10% risk. All my products have been designed keeping these things in mind.

        DCB faces tough challenge in the 40-5 range. I’d advise you to get out in this range and re-enter only after this hurdle is clear.
        Vishal Info is a stock to be avoided. Get out and switch to a better stock.

        Suzlon is also a dead stock and is best moving in a range. Till it gets past 100, no hopes of any momentum.

      Pls suggest me on gitanjali gems @112 and ICSA@179. Thanks

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 23, 2009 at 6:58 pm

        Gitanjali gems- The stock is consolidating and needs to make a dash past 120 to pick momentum and reach 150+. Hold on to the stock keeping a stop below 100.

        ICSA- Stock is consolidating between 150-200 range.Either buy at 150 or beyond 200 to make gains.

        Hold keeping a stop below 200 and a possible target of 250 if the stock shows some momentum and crosses 220-225.

      • sagecapital

        The stock can move provided it stays above 9000. So keep a stop around 9000. Volatility is very high in the stock.

        Hold crompton. The stock can go to 320-330 quickly if markets remain favourable and the stock crosses 300.
        Sasken communication is also trending up nicely. So hold with a stop at 140.

        Oil country tubular is a speculative play. Buy keeping a stop at 70 and target of 100-120.
        Orient Paper-Buy above 60 for a target of 70-80.

        Depends on your risk return expectations.
        If you are a low risk investor, invest in large caps. Might be a good time to invest in L&T, BHEL, Reliance,ITC, Wipro etc
        A better option might be to invest in mutual funds (say some HDFC equity fund).

        if you are an aggressive investor, you can move to mid caps.

        Bombay Rayon- You might get your price(about 240-250) if the stock crosses 200. Wait a bit more.
        Zee News- The stock is sideways bt might reach 50 if market picks up.if it doesn’t, get out

        Avoid Anu Labs.
        Satyam looks fine as long as it remains above 90. (a good entry point for you). You can also consider HCL or Wipro on dips.

      What would be your advice on:
      * ICSA (300 @ 190.55)
      * Astra Microwave (300 @ 74.50)

      Seeing the current uptrend in mid-cap IT stocks, shoudl I increase exposure to both, or 1 of them ? Please advise.

      Thanks.

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, August 22, 2009 at 12:24 am

        Astra is picking momentum and can continue the uptrend. I’d keep a stop at around 70 to ride the uptrend.
        FSL looks good to add for a short term target of 40.

        You seem to be in a lot of food counters. ADF keep a stop at 55 and ride the uptrend.

      Dear Sir,
      I have invested in Glenmark Pharma @ 235. Is this the good stock to hold….If yes than how long? Can we see the more down trend from this position (223).Is there any bad news in this stock?

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, August 20, 2009 at 12:25 am

        The company is into drug discovery which is a very high risk high rewards game. So don’t compare it with other pharma stocks which are more defensive plays.
        The stock is very volatile. Hold it if it stays above 200. The stock is still bearish in the long term although it is slightly bullish in medium term. Today’s move was very bad for the stock.

      Sir,
      I have 750 Petronet LNG (avg price 63) and 400 PTC.(avg price 90). I am a long term investor. What is the prospect ?
      Regards.
      Ps DasGupta.

      • sagecapital
        Thursday, August 20, 2009 at 12:48 am

        PTC looks okay but is currently in the 80-100 range. So keep a stop either at 80 or 70 as the stock can fall badly below these levels. The stock is very volatile and will pick up momentum again once it gets past 100.

        Petronet-Keep a stop at 55. The stock looks in an uptrend.
        One of the issues with these high volatile stocks is that they tend to correct very swiftly in a falling market. So an investor has to be very careful.
        I’d have advised you to diversify more (keep atleast 8-10 stocks)

        Bharti has 370-430 range. The stock is sideways.Needs to break this range to move up. So either buy at the low end of the range or on the breakout of the range.

      • sagecapital
        Wednesday, August 19, 2009 at 12:54 am

        Fortis- Stop around 90. If it crosses 110 then 120 will come quickly. Really bullishness comes after 120, when 140 can come in medium term.I’d be a buyer after 120 in the stock. Very volatile stock (similar to NOCIL).

        DISH TV- Stop at 39-40. It will pick momentum and go to 60 only after getting out of 48-50 range.

      • sagecapital
        Wednesday, August 19, 2009 at 1:03 am

        287 is a long target. See my Satyam analysis. The stock is suffering from supply overhang as lots of investors bought the stock on its way down and they are booking profits on every rise.
        as IT sector is the current hot flavour in the market, Satyam might get a push but 287 is a long time away (although markets have this habit of giving surprises both on the upside and the downside).
        One option for you could be to switch other IT stocks and recover some of your money there.

        150K-
        just a general suggestion
        Divide it into two parts- Invest about 50k into midcaps (potential multibaggers)-take 4-5 bets
        Invest 100k into index stocks -RIL,L&T,BHEL,SBI,Maruti, Dr. Reddy,Tata Power etc. (Pick 10 stocks)
        If (and this is a big IF) markets stay stable, you can hope 20%+ on your investments.(if you make the right exits)
        If you are a trader, then allocations might be entirely different.

        BPCL and Sterlite are fine as of now but DLF might be in trouble. Unfortunately, you have picked very volatile stocks, so it might be better to get used to these wild swings.
        In case you are a trader, you should be cutting your longs immediately.

      • sagecapital
        Monday, August 17, 2009 at 9:16 pm

        Manohar- First you need to cut the existing positions without panicking. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
        Once you are out- then see what the stock does. If it finds support around 80 levels, go long for a quick bounce. But this time trade with 1 or 2 lots if you can’t handle 3.

        As far as Rolta goes, 135-140 is a good level to pick with stop at 125-130.
        And as I am advising again and again-trade light. Be patient and wait for the right opportunity to strike back!

        Alok Industries is not looking good from long term but for short term trading, you can pick the stock around 15 and sell for 10-15% bounce.
        SpiceJet-Pick the stock if you get it around 14-15. again not for long term.

        Aban offshore faces difficulty in crossing 1200-1300.
        the stock can fall more if it breaks 1050.
        The stock might find support in the 800-900 region.

        Hold. Book profits on atleast 30% of your positions.
        On TCS put a stop at 470 and for Infosys at 1900.

        Aban has been discussed above.
        ICICI is in a 600-800 range and might stay there. Invest closer to 600 keeping a stop below 600.

        As I have indicated several times, suzlon is a very vulnerable stock. Below 80, the stock will invite fresh selling.

        Mr. Roy,
        Thanks for the good word.
        Your return expectation is a bit unrealistic.20-25% in six months is still risky.Stick to quality and avoid something like R Power or Chambal.Also Aban looks a bit iffy.

      DLF 100 bought @ 397

        Mindtree is fine as long as it is above 400. I’d suggest tat you sell 30% of your holdings in the stock.
        DLF is a very risky stock. Exit the stock on every rise.
        MHRIL- Exit on every rise.

        Mr Rao- As far as bonus goes, if you are holding the stock on the bonus date, you become eligible for bonus.
        As far as Jindal Steel is concerned, the stock remains in uptrend as long as it trades above 2500.

        The stock is playing in a range.
        60-80-100 is the broad range. Which means sell at 100 and buy at either 80 or 100.
        The stock needs to get past 100 to show some real promise. That’s when traders will pick it up and take it to 120+. Till then the movements are in a range.

        I think I have suggested earlier also that one should exit this stock on rise.
        Pick something better-something which carries less risk and more return. This carries more risk and promise of less return.

      Hello Sir,

      I have purchased 10000 shares of JPHYDRO @ RS 87.4 on Thursday and the share has come down to Rs.84.75. As I have purchases this share from all the avialable Margin, so am worried if it will come up before 22nd Aug or not. Kindly Suggest sir.

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 16, 2009 at 4:10 am

        My suggestion would be to reduce your position if you are on over leverage. Why are you risking all our money on a single bet?
        Put a stop at 80.And if markets correct below 4500 you should immediately cut your position even without waiting for your stops to be hit. It will be painful but might save you from further agony!
        The first thing you should always ask your RM -what is my downside risk?
        And in future do not take such large bets based on your broker recommendations. My experience tells me that these brokers are suckers and only after your brokerage income! That is the reason why they allow 10 times margin in accounts when they know that the client can go broke on a single transaction.

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 16, 2009 at 2:16 pm

        Target return of 50 per quarter means 200% per annum. if you are willing to lose 50-70% of your capital, then you might go for the same.

        Satyam is fine.
        Empee is ok, keep a stop at 120
        Vishal Info- Exit between 20-25. Not looking great.

Please suggest me sir, if it has got any uptrend in coming 2-3 days else it will be sold after 3 days and i have to then book the losses which will be heavy. Kindly suggest sir ASAP.

      Hi
      thanks for your valuable suggestion. I am planning to invest around 10000 rs.

      I would like to invest for short term.
      – What is your target return?
      10 to 15%- What is your risk?
      Low
      – How long you want to invest?
      short term
      – Do you want to trade short term or invest long term?
      4 to 6 weeks

      I felt like buying Nagarjuna constructions at 125 as the entry price. Can you please tell me whether its an advisable one.
      Thanks,
      Eashwari.S

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 16, 2009 at 3:47 am

        To get a return of 15%, you must be prepared for a risk of at least 5-7%.
        Nagarjuna is a fair bet but buy as close to 120 as you can keeping a stop below 110.
        On the upside, book partial profits around 150 and if the stock crosses 150, then hold it for a target of 170+.

        Pick from IT,Pharma,Auto,FMCG,Power and Cement sector.

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, August 15, 2009 at 1:33 pm

        RIL will move according to crude oil price. The stock is facing resistance around 2100 level.
        Although the stock looks good in medium term, in short term it might not pick momentum.
        One should buy calls ,only when the momentum has already been established or is just about to be established. The time decay on options can hurt you badly.
        Doing a covered call strategy works best as 90% of options expire worthless.

        Fame India is a “speculative investment”. Buy only if it crosses 24-25 levels for a target of 35-40. Put a stop below 20. One big risk with such stocks is the “liquidity risk”. This means that you might not be able to sell your stock as there might not be any buyers!
        Avoid Spicejet.
        NHPC looks okay. See my earlier analysis on the same.

      Hi, what to do with these shares:
      Mcdowell holding 200sh@200

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, August 15, 2009 at 1:52 pm

        Premier can be held as it has again resumed its uptrend. It might be difficult to say as to what levels it might reach.115 in short term and 150-170 in medium term is possible. Exit the stock if it goes below 60-70 range again.

        McDowell faces tough challenge at 75 levels. above that 100 and above that 140. If were a trader, I’d buy the stock above 100.
        Taneja aerospace is range bound between 35-50.

        In general, please manage your risk properly with these mid cap and small cap stocks. These stocks give 50-100% in a few months and then fall back to their original levels. So timing your exits is as important as timing your entries.
        My suggestion would be to switch to couple of large caps.

        First keep a stop at 18.5.
        The stock needs to cross 22-24 in order to pick momentum and reach 28-30. So exit your holding if you don’t get these targets.

        The stocks good but a more appropriate entry was at 220-230. Having entered at 279, you can keep a stop at 240 and ride the stock till 290-300. if it crosses 300, then 320 might be a good exit.

        Arun,
        Temptation foods is a speculative play. Avoid it.if you have it exit on every rise. if you wish to trade, then stock needs to get past 38-39 before it can go to 50.

        Indage Vintners- Get out of this one also. the stock can fall back to 40, if the overall market corrects. Read this:

        IOL Chemicals – this is again a risky stock. Low margin business. Can reach 40.

        In my honest opinion, you can pick much better stocks in this market. I was wondering as to how you arrived at your list. Please do your research before you invest your hard earned money into the markets!

      Hi

      First of all, thank you for your honest updates and stock ideas. It is very helpful for newcomers.
      I am new to the stockmarket and I noticed Rei agro’s graph today and also the previous graphs.
      Can you pls explain the move of this stock?
      I would like to invest in it. Is it a good strategy to invest in agricultural stocks, now that there is a droughtlike situation.
      Thankyou

        Smitha- Thanks for your support.I do my best to give an honest and unbiased view of the market.That doesn’t mean that i’ll be always right 🙂
        REI Agro is a speculative stock. We had made decent money on the stock in the last bull run.The stock is currently in a bearish trend is best avoided. Invest your money into blue chip quality stocks. You might earn less but the risk is also lower!
        As a newbie, learn first to minimize risk rather than go after spectacular gains!

          Hi again,

          I did keep away from the stock and i will keep it in my watchlist. I do have some stocks mentioned in your list. And I want to now add a couple of stocks which are a little speculative and give me good dividend. The only one which is giving me good return now is educomp – 2 shares. Can you suggest some stocks for short-medium term?

          Thanks a lot

        Again a champion of 2007. Infact you can see it as one of my recommendations of 2007!
        Currently, the stock is in a bearish trend, so I won’t touch the stock. My advice would be to sell the stock on rallies.

        Stock is in an uptrend but currently in a 45-60 range. Needs to cross 60 to go for 70-75 levels.
        There is a good chance that the stock picks up momentum if markets stay strong.

        Never even think about exposure. Leverage is a double edged sword.These brokers are out there to rip off the small investors!
        Invest your 25k for a short to medium term. There are many ideas on this blog.

        Good for short term trading. For long term, the stock is a bit more risky due to high debt on its books.

        Bharti around 370-385.
        DLF above 420 (if you want to play short term momentum)and around 370 if you are longer term investor.
        Sesa goa- 220 or 180 if you are a long term player. if you are a short term player buy at current levels (around 242)with stop at 230 and target of 260.

        Avoid RNRL and use the rally to exit.
        Hindalco looks good from medium term perspective.
        HCC will pick momentum after it crosses 120-Till then range bound between 90-120.
        GPIL is also sideways and lacks momentum.

        Tuesday, August 11, 2009 at 6:05 pm

        Glenmark has become very volatile stock. Though the medium term uptrend is intact, keep an eye on 235-240 price range below which the stock might lose momentum and can then go down or sideways. On the upside, we need the stock to get past 275-20 levels. It an then reach around 300-320.

        I never recommend averaging the losers. That’s a sure shot way of avoiding losses and turning your small losers into bigger ones.
        For a trader- it is like making a bigger mistake instead of correcting a small mistake.
        Imagine how you’d have done if you had averaged all your stocks on their way down?

      Dear sir.

      18 months back i started investing in stocks.
      I invested in RNRL and Nagarjuna Fert.
      I have 1600 shares of RNRL at 141.00 and 1000 shares of NAGARFER at 60.00.

      Almost i lost more than half of my money. I waited for 18 months. Do you want me to come out these stocks.
      Please suggest me.

      • sagecapital
        Tuesday, August 11, 2009 at 3:58 pm

        Mr. Reddy- Stocks like RNRL and Nagarjuna are good for trading and not for investing. If you are trading on the right side of these stocks, you can make big money but equally you lose a lot if you are caught on the wrong side!
        If you are a long term investor, switch out of these stocks and make a move to quality.
        Below 75, RNRL can fall even to 65.Infact one can short sell the stock.On my trading systems, the buy was at 55 and sell at 75.
        Nagarjuna looks set for 25-27.On my trading systems the buy was at 20+ and sell at 37.
        Use market rallies to get out.

        I am not a big fan of Unitech for the moment as it has lost momentum.
        My system gave a buy at around 40 and exit at 70. I’d be willing to re-enter the stock if it gets past 100. Till then it is a “doubtful” candidate for upward momentum.

      • sagecapital
        Tuesday, August 11, 2009 at 4:05 pm

        ITC has lost short term momentum but medium term uptrend is still on. As long as it manges to stay above 200, it should slowly try to make an upmove. needs to get back to 245-250 range to pick up momentum again.
        And it is not necessary to always book a profit on a stock. Always be ready to book a small loss in order to avoid a bigger loss.

        Unitech and Suzlon will move sideways till some momentum builds up.
        NIIT looks fine as long as it stays above 50. 70 is a big resistance for the stock.

      • sagecapital
        Tuesday, August 11, 2009 at 6:03 pm

        DLF has already been discussed before. The stock has lost momentum below 380. We have to see if stock finds support at 350. Otherwise, a slide to 300 might be on the cards.
        On the upside 400-420 is a tough challenge.

        RPL shall move according to RIL moves. The stock can go back to 150 if it crosses 130.The stock can lose momentum if it slides below 115-118.
        Keep an eye on crude oil price for this.

        ABB is in a 640-750 range. So you can trade this if you want. the stock will pick up only if it get past 750. Not looking very bullish.

        HDIL is a risky bet as I have mentioned before. Switch to Pharma stocks like Cipla or Oil stocks like Reliance industries. Do not go after “low priced” stocks. Worry about safety of your returns than the gains.

      Is it proper time to buy HPCL? What can be its short term target?

        Tuesday, August 11, 2009 at 4:08 pm

        The stock is very volatile. But either above 400 to ride short term momentum or buy around 320-340 for a counter trend trade.

        Market stays bullish as long as it stays above 4400. And above 4550, it can rocket again.

      Srinjoy,
      370 is a good support for the Bharti and might be a good entry point if the level holds.Below that, the stock could be in bearish trend.

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 9, 2009 at 2:23 pm

        I’d sell it on every bounce. Till it crosses 100, it will struggle. Also there is a risk of interest rates rising again because of inflationary trends in the economy.

        • HEPHSI
          Sunday, August 9, 2009 at 2:28 pm

      Can you please advice:
      1. FSL – hold or sell..? My acqsn. price – 30.50;
      2. IFCI – hold or exit. 1 lot bought @ 52.90;
      3. TechM – hold or exit – 150 @ 856.00

      Thanks.

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 9, 2009 at 2:27 pm

        IFCI strategy has been discussed before.Please check that.
        TechM- If you are a long term investor, the stock can correct upto 630 also. For short term, 740-750 is a decent support.

      Hi
      What is the target price for Avance Technologies,Man Industries, Balrampur Chini, Mercator Lines.
      Please suggest me on this…
      Waiting for your reply
      Thanks in advance

      • sagecapital
        Monday, August 10, 2009 at 9:57 pm

        Devendra,
        My apologies for skipping your post.Here is my suggestion:
        Balrampur Chini has already been discussed.
        Mercator might reach 50 and then 42 if NIFTY downtrend picks up.
        Man is currently in the 40-50 range. It needs to get out of this range. The stock has lost medium term momentum.
        hope this helps.

      Dear Sir,
      What i Does is buy stock and sell when it increases by 5%,The selling part is fine but i tend to purchase the same stock again at high price assuming it may go even higher in the process i get stuck.I dont have the patience to wait till the stock comes down!!! what to do other than this? Kindly advice

      • sagecapital
        Sunday, August 9, 2009 at 12:09 pm

        Krishh,
        Two things might help you.
        -Before you enter, know your exit
        -Focus not only on how to take profits but also on how to cut losses. One BIG loss can wipe away 95% of your gains.
        So if you are re-entering again at higher price, treat it like a new entry with new target and new stop loss.
        Hope this helps!

        The stock is range bound between 1000 and 1200. Any break out of this range will decide the future direction. Higher oil prices might help the stock.

      hi,

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 4:05 pm

        Mr. Harpreet,
        It might be very difficult to pick stocks for 10 years+.
        I’d go for companies which have a top class management and can execute the business plans. Some names that come to mind are:
        -Infosys
        -Reliance Inds
        -HDFC bank

        I’d advice you to make a portfolio of about 15-20 stocks rather than 2-3 stocks.

    749. Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 2:41 pm

      Thanks for your suggestion!

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:49 pm

        I will try to take up steel stocks.
        JSW Steel looks okay. Get worried if it goes below 650-680 range.On the upside 850-900 possible.
        HDIL- Keep a watch. Below 250, this can slide and lose upside momentum. The stock might be rangebound till it breaks 280-290 on the upside.

    751. Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:17 pm

      Dear Sir,

      This is good site for right direction.
      can you please tell me at what range shouls I

      made stop loss @32.60 in this, so I would like to re-enter in this stock at lower rate to cover loss.

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:51 pm

        The stock has support at 25-27 and resistance at 38. So buy around support levels to play for a bounce.
        or buy above 38 to ride the momentum.

      • sagecapital
        Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:53 pm

        My suggestion is simple. Get out of this stock if you are an investor. If you are trader and like the high risk game, then the stock will pick momentum after it gets past 5. On the downside, I’d keep my stops at 3.80

        The stock is volatile and stop below 40 is advised.if you are a short term trader then keep a stop at 55. The stock looks good. The right entry price was around 51-53.

        Ballarpur has gone for a split. Keep a stop at 20 and see if it crosses 27 and 35 in this market uptrend. if it doesn’t it is best to get out of this stock. Get into some IT stocks or quality Pharma stocks.
        Deep industries – Get out around 140-150 on market rallies. Ride the momentum if 150 crossed. Not a good stock fundamentally.
        DCB- Range between 24-48. Needs to get out of this range. U can trade this range if you want. I’d switch to Axis Bank or ICICI or Yes bank.

        You can add some banking and auto stocks (Tata Motors,Hero Honda etc.) I’d request u to reduce your real estate holdings(Unitech and HDIL) as they are very volatile. also look at pharma stocks like Cipla and Dr. Reddy.
        Good luck with your investing!

        You can dump Ansal. The idea of successful investing is to be rational and cut your losers. Holding RPL is same as holding RIL, so you might wanna hold on to it. The stock is in an uptrend.

        Nilesh,
        Thanks for visiting the site. Just use this rally to get out of junk like Visu International. These are pure trading stocks which are operator driven.
        I will try to cover Noida Toll and Adlabs.

        Ashish,
        I plan to write a post on Adani Power. we will play it the same way we played a DLF or Powergrid in the past. Stick to your PowerGrid. if it crosses 120, it can rocket.The stock is in an uptrend.

          Thank you. Please also tell if Adani or NHPC valuation can bring rally in powergrid, and other similar power companies.
          I expect good subscription figure in Adani tomorrow… 10-12 times maybe… I will skip it now, will save money for NHPC, coming next week…
