After hitting a high of Rs 246.95 on 7 January 2008, the stock failed to hold on to the momentum. It found support above 44 levels in 2013 before inching higher.“In high volume, EIH stock has risen to a record high in August 2023. The stock experienced an upward breakout with above-average volumes after nearly 15 years in a rectangle range of 165 points on a monthly basis. The stock is trading higher than its four-year average, or 50 SMA,” Suraj Bathija, Founder & CSO at AlgoBulls, said.
“The significant volumes in August 2020 allowed the stock to gain support at its previous level. The stock is completely confined to an upward channel on the weekly charts and is demonstrating its strength by retracing and moving higher,” he said.
“Strong trends, in our opinion, retrace periodically before picking up steam once more. The company’s annual revenue growth increased by 100.82% over its three-year CAGR of 7.69%,” highlights Bathija.
In comparison to the Nifty Midcap 100’s three-year return of 126.97% (as of the most recent trading day), the stock had a three-year return of 162.31%. Daily, weekly, and monthly RSI are all higher than 60.
“The breakout range of 215-225 for the aforementioned stock, which can be retraced there, will be a great place to buy the stock. The stock is probably going to hit targets 1 and 2 of 299 and 365 in the coming quarter from the CMP,” recommended Bathija.
