Patel, Sr. Manager - Equity Research, AnandRathi on the stock's technicals said, "At the current point in time, the price action of BSE is significantly above all major exponential moving averages (EMAs), indicating that the stock or index has been trading at higher levels for a prolonged period. However, there is a bearish divergence on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) in the daily chart." A bearish divergence occurs when the price makes higher highs, but the RSI fails to make corresponding highs, suggesting weakening momentum and the potential for a price reversal or pullback. So, the expert expects a short-term pullback to the 4200 level and In light of this, it would be prudent for traders to book profits during any upward bounces rather than initiating new long positions, as the risk of a downside correction is high.
