DATE OF ARTICLE - 17/10/2020

State Bank of India is trading in an upmove while forming Inverse Head & Shoulders pattern and this pattern will be completed on a close above Rs 206 mark.

Why to buy State Bank of India (SBI)?

In technical analysis, an Inverse Head and Shoulders pattern describes a chart formation that projects a bearish-to-bullish trend reversal. An Inverse Head and Shoulders reversal pattern forms after a downtrend and its completion marks a trend reversal to uptrend. In the standard Inverse Head and Shoulders pattern, we connect the high after the left shoulder with the high created after the head. A trend line is drawn by connecting these highest points of the two peaks, which is called as "Neckline". This trend line is the most important component of the Inverse H & S pattern.

State Bank of India is trading in an upmove while forming Inverse Head & Shoulders pattern and this pattern will complete on a close above Rs 206. This stock is trading near the strong resistance line standing around Rs 202, which has been tested multiple times and also suggests that a strong bullish bias will continue after a breakout.

The recent Inverse Head & Shoulders classical pattern will give a breakout by trading only above Rs 202 mark and suggests buying in the stock for higher targets of Rs 228. Volume will also add further insight while trading these patterns. Decent volume participation while giving breakout will also give support to Inverse H & S pattern.

Similar to 2020, D-Street is at record high ahead of Budget 2021; will history repeat itself?

  Experts are of the view that a repeat of 2020 or what happened in March might not be possible but some consolidation cannot be ruled out. Back in March when everyone wanted to write-off 2020 from their books, hope and liquidity supported markets and investor sentiment. Nobody thought that after touching a 3-year low in March 2020, benchmark indices would give double-digit returns by the end of the year. The S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty50 rallied by about 15 percent in 2020 and the big outperformance came from the small and midcap stocks. The rally is still continuing in 2021. The S&P BSE Sensex, which climbed Mount 49K, is up over 3 percent while the Nifty50 is up over 4 percent so far in January. Sensex scaling the 49,000-mark and Nifty50 touching 14,500 levels ahead of the Budget 2021 could make anyone cautious about the strength of the rally. Back in January 2020, both Sensex and Nifty touched fresh highs ahead of Budget, and then the market fell like a pack of cards. The ...
