Comment :: 'Focus on stocks that were on the sidelines for some time'

The rotational buying across heavyweights is pushing the Nifty to a newer high despite the overbought reading and it is now heading towards a new milestone of the “21,000”+ mark.

We recommend focusing on the stocks that were on the sidelines for some time and are likely to join the move now. At the same time, traders should keep on trailing stop losses in the existing trades to capitalize on the prevailing trend.
