    I am also looking at this stock for shorting opportunity.
    My opinion is that BATA is consolidating in the range 750 - 800. I feel its bit risky to short this stock now. If at all I short this stock at the current level I will keep a stop loss of 765.

    Shabbir, whats your opinion?

    Should be good candidate for shorting. There is hardly any support down.

    I feel if it close below 725, then only it should be shorted for target 600. If you see weekly chart of 2 years, its clear that 720-730 band is strong support.

    Hi Shabbir
    I am losing confidence in ascertaining what support level to ascertain for stock for shorting.
    When it come to this stock it was good shorting script but when i go 2year back i found a big support at this level.
    Same happened with bhel and hindalco.
    When we go back the graph shows a big band where price can get support. I am using trade tiger by sharekhan. The big band make me indecisive to take a call.
    So my question is what should be the ideal period to see the support while shorting a stock?
    Do help me in this as I missed my own analysis due indecisiveness on period. Also as you go back in graph some where or the other you will defnitely get a support at CMP so that is confusing.

    I will wait for your reply.

    Regards
    Veren

    Period should be as long as possible. Shorting should always be on the crack of that support levels and then may be a spike. See the pattern morning panic afternoon fade and then the same applicable to positional trading.
