Sumeet Bagadia's stocks to buy on Muhurat Trading 2024

Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes that Indian stock market bias is weak and that the Nifty 50 index may go down to 23,450 to 23,400 if the 50-stock index breaks below 24,000 to 23,900 support decisively. The Choice Broking expert said the Nifty 50 index may try to retest its recent lows as it has failed to breach above 24,400 resistance on multiple occasions. On the Muhurat trading 2024 strategy, Sumeet Bagadia suggested a stock-specific approach and asked investors to look at breakout stocks for intraday trading.

Speaking on the Muhurat Trading 2024 strategy for the Indian stock market today, Sumeet Bagadia said, "Bearish pressure on Dalal Street has eased out after the pullback rally on Monday and Tuesday sessions. However, the Indian stock market will remain cautious until the Nifty 50 index breaks above the 24,650 to 24,700 hurdle. Likewise, the 50-stock index has bounced back after reaching the 24,000 mark, which signals the frontline index making a crucial base around the 24,000 to 23,900 zone. For Muhurat trading 2024, day traders are advised to maintain a stock-specific approach and looking at breakout stocks for intraday trading can be a good option."
