Stocks to buy: Titan, GAIL, Concor among 10 stocks that may rise 4-19% in next 3-4 weeks, say analysts; do you own any?

Indian stock market benchmarks, the Sensex and the Nifty 50, traded in the negative in morning trade on Tuesday, May 21, amid weak global cues ahead of the release of the minutes of the Federal Reserve's latest policy meeting, anticipating cues about the timing and extent of interest rate cuts this year.

Caution ahead of the Lok Sabha election 2024 outcome also keeps the market down even as it is not witnessing wild gyration.

Brokerage firm Axis Securities expects the Nifty 50 to trade between 23,000 and 22,000 for the week, with a mixed bias.

"The weekly strength indicator RSI (Relative Strength Index) remains flat and is below its reference line, indicating the absence of momentum on either side," said Axis Securities.

According to the brokerage firm, if the Nifty 50 crosses and sustains above the 22,600 level, it will witness buying, leading the index towards 22,800-23,000 levels. However, if the index breaks below the 22,350 level, it will witness a selloff, taking the index towards 22,200-22,000 levels.

The Indian stock market is expected to witness volatility in the near term. Market experts suggest picking stocks with strong technical indicators. Based on the recommendations of several experts, here are 10 stocks that can rise 4-19 per cent in the next 3-4 weeks. Take a look:

Titan Company | LTP: ₹3,362.55 | Buying range: ₹3,330-3,365 | Target price: ₹3,600 | Stop loss: ₹3,235 | Upside potential: 7%

After reaching the ₹3,800 mark on April 1, 2024, the stock experienced a significant downturn, with a decline of nearly 600 points, or a 16 per cent loss in price. 

However, amidst this downturn, a compelling opportunity emerged. The stock exhibits a bullish AB=CD Pattern with a 1:1 leg ratio, signalling a potential reversal near the ₹3,200-3,250 zone. 

This pattern, coupled with a noteworthy observation from the RSI, adds to the allure of the current juncture.

Shriram Finance | Previous close: ₹2,370.45 | Buying range: ₹2,345-2,365 | Target price: ₹2,460 | Stop loss: ₹2,300 | Upside potential: 4%

Recently, Shriram Finance hit a low near the lower Bollinger band, which often indicates a potential reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend. 

In the most recent trading session, the stock formed a long-legged Doji candlestick pattern at this lower Bollinger band level. 

A long-legged Doji, characterised by a small central body and long wicks on both sides, signifies market indecision and potential trend reversal, particularly when it appears at a support level like the lower Bollinger band. 

Additionally, the hourly chart shows that Shriram Finance has established a double-bottom structure, and the daily stochastic indicator shows a bullish divergence. 

A bullish divergence occurs when the stock price reaches a new low, but the stochastic oscillator does not, suggesting weakening downward momentum and a potential reversal.

A bull divergence occurs when the stock price forms lower lows while the MACD indicator forms higher lows, indicating a potential reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend. 

The breach of the bearish trend line suggests a potential shift in the stock's direction from bearish to bullish.
