JSW Steel share price today
JSW Steel share price today closed 1.43% higher at ₹1,238.35 apiece on the BSE.
According to Rathi, the stock has faced strong resistance in the ₹1,285-1,310 zone, where it has formed multiple bearish patterns. On the daily 0.25% × 3 Point & Figure chart, JSW Steel has registered a 100% Bearish Pole, followed by a Bearish Triangle Breakdown, signalling sustained selling pressure. He added that the bearish crossover of the 20-column moving average below the 50-column moving average indicates that short-term momentum has shifted decisively in favour of sellers.
However, Rathi believes the current weakness appears to be a corrective phase rather than a reversal of the primary uptrend on the higher timeframe 1% × 3 Point & Figure chart, where the stock is undergoing a bearish pattern retest.
He identified the ₹1,220-1,200 zone as a key support area that could provide some near-term stability. Nevertheless, Rathi cautioned that there are no meaningful technical signals indicating that buyers have regained control, and until a convincing reversal pattern or breakout emerges, the stock's near-term outlook remains cautious to bearish.
