Wipro Weekly Candlestick Chart on Sharekhan’s TradeTiger

Wipro has been stagnating on its 61.8% retracement level for many months. This level seems unbreakable as the stock has taken support at Rs 381 on multiple occasions. MFI is 38 which indicates the stock is oversold but this has been for many months.

A breakdown below the 61.8% level is unlikely, but the company has reported poor quarterly earnings results, the breakdown has a faint possibility in which the stock will plummet into a severe bearish move.
