Buy Nazara Technologies?

Commenting on the future outlook of Nazara Technologies, Rahul Ghose, Founder & CEO – Hedged, an algorithm-powered advisory platform said “Nazara Technologies saw a huge spike its profits by more than 200% recently but valuations still remain a concern even at this point as the stock is trading in excess of a price to book value of 3. The stock is finally looking though to bounce from its all time lows, but this has not yet triggered a buy on the charts. The near term resistance for the stock is at 537 and one should look to initiate a buy once they see a bullish closing above this level. The stock is oversold on the weekly charts as well and a bounce will ensure that it closes above its 10 day & 20 day EMA, which paves way for a shorter term bounce. For the long term, the buy level is still quite far away as the stock is significantly lower than its long term moving averages of 100 & 200 SMA and that buy would trigger only after we see a bullish candle closing on the weekly chart above the 655 level. On the downside, 460 to 480 remains a good support zone for this stock."

A R Ramachandran, Co-founder & Trainer-Tips2trades said "Extremely low debt to equity ratio, a turnaround to profitability with consistency in profit growth  over the past few quarters coupled with the lowest PE ratio since the IPO makes Nazara Technologies an attractive buy for long term investors at current levels. A steady improvement in operating margins in the coming financial year could further boost sentiment in this stock. Technically, investors should start buying this stock on a Daily close above 525. Targets can be 598 & 635 in the coming weeks."
