Shipping Corporation of India (SCI): BUY
Last Close: Rs 81.85
Stop Loss: Rs 78
Target: 88/93
Rationale: On the weekly charts, the stock has given a fresh swing breakout after breaking levels of 73. On the daily charts, stock yesterday completed and broke out of a Bullish Flag pattern, with a breakout line of 79. Keeping the longer term trend as well as the short term price pattern in play, I believe the stock can head higher from current levels.

Rationale: On the monthly charts, TITAN is forming a Bullish hammer pattern after seeing a recovery from 314 levels few weeks ago. Its nearing the 50 DMA, and if the stock breaks out of the band, then I believe that the stock can see some strong trending moves in the short term.
