A breakout from the range on the upside confirms the continuation of the trend.

“Tata Communications stock prices have given a breakout with rising volumes from the 6-week consolidation of flag pattern. The ticker is in strong uptrend with the formation of higher highs and higher lows on the short term as well as long term charts,” Aditya Thukral, Senior Analyst at Master Capital Services, said.
“The stock has exhibited a flag pattern where the pattern’s target comes around Rs 1,960 level in the next few months. The volumes during the consolidation phase have been declining which validates the pattern,” he said.
“Ideally, flag pattern is a continuation pattern, and trend continuation should happen in the stock prices where longs should have stop losses below Rs 1,510 on a weekly closing basis which is acting as strong support for the pattern,” highlights Thukral.
