Sell PFC on rise - 10th March 2013


PFC (Power Finance Corporation) is India's premier Power Finance company by Govt of India. It is among Navratranas (Most precious companies by Govt of India). The reasons why these are marked as "Sell on Rise".

1) The stock after re-testing the highs of 222 on around 8th Feb has fallen steeply to 190 where it found a good support. It has revived since then but finds a strong resistance around 206 (Chart 1).

2) The stock is into multiple phases of resistance now- 206, 212 and then 222 Rs (Chart 1).

3) Open Interest has increased by 12% on day-to-day basis. The stock has depreciated by 1% even during favorable market conditions on Friday. 210 Feb Call has seen its premium down by 15% on rising Open Interest which again is a negative trigger for the stock.

3) The only grace factor for PFC is that the decline in stock is not supported with rising volumes which indicates that it could be just a stop-over before the next rise.

4) One may sell PFC around 208 with stop-loss can be placed above 212 Rs resistance levels. The first target can be placed at intermediate support of 196 and second one may be placed at the strong support of 190 from where it bounced back last time around.

Wishing you a great trading week ahead :)
