According to Rajesh Bhosale, Equity Technical and Derivative Analyst at Angel One, Apollo Micro Systems share price have seen a spectacular run this week, with a rally of almost 30%. Momentum is on the bullish side but indicators are in overbought zone. Traders can hold on to longs but fresh long at current levels should be avoided, 165 - 170 is a strong support if any dip towards it can be bought on the upside 205 is the immediate resistance.
Anshul Jain, Head of Research at Lakshmishree Investments explained that Apollo Micro Systems share price broke out of an 85-day-long cup and handle pattern at ₹ 155 and swiftly hit its initial target of ₹ 182. The multibagger defence stock is now extended from its 50-day EMA, making a mean reversion towards ₹ 170 likely. If the pullback unfolds with low volumes and compressed candles—indicating ideal quality—then the stock may resume its upward trajectory. In that case, bulls could eye the next leg of the rally towards ₹ 220.
