Sumeet Bagadia's intraday stocks for today

Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes the Indian stock market mood has turned cautious as the Nifty 50 index ended below the psychological 26,000 mark on Monday. The Choice Broking expert said that the 50-stock index failed to breach the 26,250 to 26,300 hurdle, and the frontline index has now a vital support placed at 26,650. If this base is breached, the Nifty 50 index may go down towards the 26,450 to 26,400 zone. He advised investors to maintain a stock-specific approach and look at the stocks looking strong on the technical chart. He also advised investors to look at breakout stocks for intraday trading.

Speaking on the outlook of the Indian stock market today, Sumeet Bagadia said, 'After facing hurdle at around 26,250 to 26,300 range, the 50-stock index finally slipped below 26,000 mark and even breached the crucial support placed in 26,850 to 26,900 range. Now, the 50-stock index has immediate support placed at the 26,650 mark. So, the Indian stock market is expected to trade cautiously today as investors would like to see whether or not the 50-stock index sustains above 26,650 support. On breaching below this support, the 50-stock index may soon touch the 26,450 to 26,400 zone."
