If you had bought a single share of Neyveli Lignite a year ago then as of today you would have nearly doubled the value of that share. That’s a gain of almost 100 percent.

But by no means should this particular stock be seen in the light of a short term gain because the majority stake holder in this company is the government but at the same time it is an excellent long term prospect.

Neyveli Lignite is India’s

There are far too many reports of a slowdown in the domestic economy and of inflation-related concerns. We can’t seem to get over talking about the subprime crisis, the credit crunch and the global deceleration. What we tend to forget at times is that India continues to grow … and, that too, at a good pace. For any economy that is growing at a healthy rate, the generation of power becomes critical. According to government data, our domestic power generation equipment market could see demand growth of 15,000-16,000 MW per annum in the coming decade.

Price is the function of Supply and Demand. In financial markets, the job of market participants is to debate a story and discover a price of a tradeable asset. In last few years, commodities be it metals or crude have been on dream run, and it seems right now, it is in parabolic bull phase - a phase where maximum appreciation happens in shortest period of time. Generally, this is the phase where even non-believers throw in the towel and sudden demand burst leads to sharp price spikes before the reality kicks in. In overnight trade, crude oil prices closed at $123 per barrel.

Technical Analysis is a combination of art and science. Science - because there are logical principles on which the whole body of knowledge is based on; and Art - because of the interpretation one makes after applying those principles. The two great contributions to trading knowledge have come from Physics and Mathematics. Do you remember "Newton's Law of Motion" and "Fibonacci sequence"? To refresh your memory, let me remind you Newton's Law of Motion -

As a Technical Analyst and a trader, I am trained to believe what I see on the screen. I have no business to ask - "Why prices have moved up?" I have to just accept the fact that prices have moved up and trade accordingly. There is no doubt that market is showing more strength than weakness and more and more sectors are now participating in the upmove. On Friday, even Autos joined the upmove bandwagon.
