Trading strategy
All the companies announced an upbeat sales but the most interesting statement was from Rajiv Bajaj of Bajaj Auto.

Hero Honda has been on an uptrend for the last six months, indicators such as Fast STO and MACD show the stock to be at the higher end of the movement. So there is not much up-side potential with this stock but the chances of it coming down is higher.

Bajaj Auto, the trend is similar. It is nearing its high but there is some steam left in the stock. The stock may try and break out in October or November.

Meanwhile TVS Motor Company has been range-bound since May 2011. The stock could breakout and start an uptrend. A high risk investor can set the trading position with a stop loss at Rs 45 and target of Rs 60.
