Stocks to watch June 03, 2016

The Indian market got off to a subdued start and thereafter traded in a narrow range for the most part of the day. However, in the second half, market saw a sudden spurt in buying post the opening of European markets and Nifty closed above 8200 mark. The formation of ‘Gravestone Doji’ candlestick pattern is negated as Nifty formed a Bullish candlestick and managed to close above the Gravestone Doji candle's high. Now going forward Nifty is approaching toward its major resistance level which is placed around 8240-8250 levels as its 61.8 per cent retracement level of down move from high of 9119 to low of 6825.80. Once this level is breached with volumes expect momentum to continue on the upside up to levels of 8330-8400. On the downside, good base has been formed in the last 3-4 trading sessions around levels of 8130-8150, hence, this zone should act as an immediate support level for Nifty.
