IEX: More downside
IEX had shown a dream run in the year 2022 from Rs 131 to a high of Rs 318 in the span of just three months, but since then, we have witnessed lower lows on the weekly charts and diminishing volumes.In the last two days, we have witnessed a 200-day average breakdown at Rs 153 with heavy volumes. The stock broke down below Rs 131 on Friday, which was a strong demand zone since 2022.

Technical indicators like MACD and RSI have shown negative crossover, confirming more downside to 88 in the short-term with stop loss now placed at 141.

Sonata Software: Buy above Rs 1035
Sonata Software is outperforming its sector with a tremendous move from 550 to 1023 in just 6 months and while achieving this move it has formed an upside channel.

Currently, the stock touched a resistance on the channel at Rs 1,030, suggesting a pause. But looking at RSI and MACD, which have crossed positively just a few candles back indicates strong momentum.

The stock still has some fizz left to move upside, but we should buy above Rs 1,035 with a stop loss at Rs 963, which was the recent support zone.

Just Dial: Stock in buy mode
Just Dial had been underperforming compared to the benchmark but since the last few weeks, the stock has moved out of the consolidation zone and is showing strong momentum.

Since the last two weeks, it has nudged out of the downside sloping channel which has been in since the high of 1138 in 2021. Now, the stock is in buy mode with a stop loss at 672, which is also the 200-weekly average.
