Why did the share price jump today?
Volumes explode far above recent average
Shares in NOCIL registered a sharp increase of almost 15 per cent on Monday, even when the overall stock exchange was facing pressure. The increase in the stock has been supported by an unusually high jump in volumes. The stock has registered a volume of 6 crore shares, while on average, the volumes over the last week have been around 13 lakh shares. Such a sharp increase in volumes is always a positive sign, indicating that the stock is being supported by high market interest.
Capex plans keep growth hopes alive
Investor sentiments may also be boosted by the company’s previously announced capex plan to invest around Rs 130 crore in expanding capacities. Such announcements often attract investors, and the company’s capex plans may have helped boost the stock in today’s session. The company’s capex plans have helped investors focus on the company’s capacity expansions, which may have helped boost the stock in today’s session.
Short-term technical indicators are showing an improvement
From a technical perspective, we can say that the recent trend in the stock price of NOCIL suggests an improvement in its short- to medium-term technical indicators. The current position of the stock in relation to its short-term moving averages is positive. The stock is currently trading above its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day and 100-day moving averages. Moreover, a strong upmove with heavy volumes always helps to attract the attention of momentum traders as well.
Long-term trend not fully bullish
However, we can say that despite a strong rally in the stock in recent times, its long-term technical trend is not fully bullish. The stock is currently trading below its 200-day moving average.
