We recommend a sell in the stock of Tata Power Company from a short-term perspective. It is evident from the charts of the stock that its intermediate-term uptrend that commenced in March low of Rs 602 was arrested at Rs 1,487 in late October. The stock has a significant long-term resistance in the band between Rs 1,450 and Rs 1,500 level. Triggered by the negative divergence in the weekly relative strength index and moving average convergence and divergence indicator the stock reversed its direction. Since late October, it has been on a short-term downtrend. On October 30, the counter tumbled 4 per cent penetrating its intermediate-term up trendline. Moreover, it declined 4 per cent with good volume on November 6, reinforcing the downtrend. The stock is trading well below its 21- and 50-day moving averages. The daily momentum indicator has entered the bearish zone. Our short-term outlook on the stock is bearish. We anticipate its decline to continue until it hits our price target of Rs 1,145. Traders with a short-term perception can sell the stock while maintaining stop-loss at Rs 1335.
