Falling Wedge: Oversold Small Cap that’s Making a 'Comeback'!

Published 15-06-2023, 10:19 am

The broader markets are looking stable after yesterday’s selling. The Nifty Smallcap 100 index is up 0.53% to 10,677, by 9:59 AM IST which is the new 52-week high. As small stocks are still getting investors’ attention, one counter that is coming out from its oversold zone to reward investors big time is V Mart Retail Ltd (NS:VMAR)

V-Mart Retail is a well-known departmental store chain, having a market capitalization of INR 4,151 crores and trades at a P/B ratio of 4.89, compared to the sector’s average of 6.25. The company posted record revenue of INR 2,479.81 crores in FY23, a healthy 47.6% YoY jump, however, due to a high interest cost, the company reported a net loss of INR 7.85 crores.

This lackluster performance was probably one of the reasons why the stock fell 23.6% in the last 12 months, despite a 23.3% rally in the Nifty Smallcap 100 index. Nonetheless, the stock is now looking to make a comeback as it delivered a crystal-clear falling wedge pattern breakout on the daily chart.

The fall for the last few weeks was bounded between an upper and a lower trendline, both pointing towards the south. This pattern is called a falling wedge and is generally a reversal indication if the stock breaks the upper trendline resistance, which is what happened in the previous session.

The share price of V-Mart Retail gained 6% on Wednesday, while another rally of 2.2% to INR 2,147 was seen today as the move is continuing firmly on the upside. The volume of Wednesday’s session was also astonishingly high, at 693.1K shares, which was around 1,600% higher than the 10-day average volume of 40.9K shares.

Now as the reversal seems almost confirmed, traders can put the stock on the watchlist to spot long opportunities. Looking at the daily chart, the stock can easily cross INR 2,400 mark in the coming weeks and a retracement to INR 2,100 can be a good level to accumulate.
