Vijaya Diagnostic Center
The stock was travelling in a rising wedge pattern since September but on Friday it nudged out with heavy volumes. Indicators have been in positive momentum, but volumes have been quite uneven, which suggests traders should wait for some more confirmation before buying in a new position.
The stock can be bought in the range of 560-580 until then we can wait.
