Tata Steel futures find support near ₹180-182; Godrej CP may see a temporary bounce to ₹990. Key levels and stop-losses for traders.
Tata Steel futures have taken a hit over the past two weeks, sliding from resistance near ₹193 to test support around ₹180. On Friday, the stock touched a low of ₹180 before recovering, suggesting buyers stepped in at that level. Analysts said the band between ₹180 and ₹182 is acting as a floor. As long as that holds, the bulls have a chance to stage a rebound.
The August futures contract, now trading near ₹184, faces a hurdle at ₹195. A clean break above that level could trigger a rally toward ₹210, according to technical analysts. Below ₹180, the picture turns bearish. A breach of that support could open the door to a deeper decline, so traders with long positions are advised to place a stop-loss at ₹178. Once the contract rises to ₹193, analysts recommend exiting even at a loss, then re-entering only if futures decisively clear ₹195.
Godrej Consumer Products (Godrej CP) has had a rougher week, dropping more than 10% and slicing through the ₹980 support level. That breakdown raises the risk of further downside. Still, from the current price near ₹940, a short-term bounce is possible. Analysts said the stock could retest ₹980, which now becomes resistance. The September futures contract, at around ₹946, may follow that upward move to ₹990.
For traders willing to take a counter-trend bet, the recommended entry is ₹925, which improves the risk-reward ratio. A stop-loss at ₹905 limits the downside. If the contract climbs to ₹970, traders should tighten the stop to ₹945 and exit the position at ₹990. Analysts caution that this is a counter-trend trade and carries elevated risk.
Both setups depend on the support and resistance levels holding. Tata Steel's fate hinges on ₹180-182, while Godrej CP's bounce potential rests on a quick move back above ₹980.
