While the long-term outlook remains negative for Reliance Communications (₹69.8), the stock could see some momentum in the near term. It finds crucial resistance at ₹74.5 and support at ₹66.7.
A close above ₹74.5 can take RCom to ₹81.3 and then to ₹97.90. On the other hand, a dip below ₹66.7 can take the stock towards ₹59. We expect the stock to remain volatile, particularly in the near term.
F&O pointers: RCom futures added 76,000 shares (0.17 per cent) in open positions on Friday. Trading pattern in options indicates that RCom may move in the range of ₹60-75 in the short term.
Strategy: Traders can consider a calendar call spread strategy on RCom using April and May options. This can be initiated by selling ₹70-call of April while simultaneously buying the same strike of May. They closed with a premium of ₹2.65 and ₹5 respectively.
The maximum possible loss will be the net premium paid, that is ₹2.35 in this strategy. Market lot is 2,000 units. However, profit potential is unlimited, if the stock pursues its upward momentum in May.
