Final Outlook
Descending Channel Pattern:
Biocon’s price is moving within a descending channel, indicating a bearish trend in the short term. The upper and lower channel lines provide resistance and support levels, respectively. It recently touched the lower boundary of this channel near the ₹315 support level and bounced slightly, which suggests some buying interest at this level.
Support and Resistance Levels:
Support: The primary support level lies around ₹305, and a secondary support zone is observed near ₹315 (within the grey shaded area), which has acted as a strong buying zone historically.
Resistance: The price has resistance around ₹340.70 and ₹367.30. A break above these levels could indicate a potential reversal in the downtrend.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA):
The chart displays the 9-day and 20-day EMAs, with the 9-day EMA currently around ₹328.43 and the 20-day EMA around ₹338.21.
Since the 9-day EMA is below the 20-day EMA, it signals bearish momentum. A crossover above the 20-day EMA could signal the start of a bullish reversal.
Volume Analysis:
Volume levels (shown as bars at the bottom) indicate trading interest. Although volume has picked up slightly, it’s still not at levels that might suggest a strong trend reversal.
Higher volume on green candles could indicate accumulating interest from buyers, especially if the price breaks above key resistance.
