Grasim Industries stock has cleared a 6-week, 11% deep
Flat Base this week. Currently, the stock is trading around just 1.0% away from its ideal buy price of INR 1614. The stock is worth watching at the current price level.
The stock ended the week on a negative note. It closed 3.89% higher on a 1.0% higher volume than the 10-week average. You want to see a strong close on heavy volume before initiating a position. That signals institutional buying. But do not conclude anything just based on this week’s action. A prudent approach would be to watch the price volume momentum in the coming trading sessions.
The key trend lines, 10 and 40-week moving averages are at a comfortable position. The current trends of both the averages are upward and the 10-week moving average is trending above the 40-week moving average.
