NAUKRI - Swing Trade Analysis

Last Updated Time : 02 Aug 25, 12:58 am

Swing Trade Rating: 2.6

📉 Technical Overview

Price (₹1,409) is currently below both 50 DMA (₹1,441) and 200 DMA (₹1,444) — a bearish signal, especially with no strong recovery yet.

RSI (45.4): Indicates neutral momentum, not oversold or overbought.

MACD (–9.31): Deep in negative territory — confirms short-term weakness.

Volume is slightly below average, pointing to subdued trader interest.

📊 Fundamental Snapshot

Valuation

P/E (103) vs Industry PE (26.4) — highly overvalued.

PEG (–3.56) → negative growth adjustment, a red flag for swing trading.

Profitability

ROCE (5.28%) & ROE (2.73%) — below industry norms.

EPS (₹14.8) supports modest profitability.

Debt-to-Equity (0.01) — exceptionally low, showing strong financial structure.

PAT Surge (₹447 Cr vs ₹273 Cr) — positive, but not enough to counter technical drag.

🧮 Institutional Activity

FII Holding Change: –0.26% — slight foreign exit.

DII Holding Change: +0.18% — mild domestic support.

🎯 Trade Strategy

📥 Optimal Entry

Wait for price near ₹1,375–₹1,385 to hold firm.

Enter only if

RSI climbs above 48

MACD flattens or moves toward crossover

Volume increases above 1-week average

📤 Exit Plan (If Holding)

Initial Target: ₹1,460–₹1,470 — where DMA resistance begins.

Stretch Exit Zone: ₹1,520–₹1,550 — achievable if RSI exceeds 60 and MACD turns positive.

Exit fully near ₹1,590+ only if clear trend reversal emerges on strong volume.

🧠 Final Take

NAUKRI shows impressive profit recovery and pristine debt profile but suffers from weak technical momentum and excessive valuation. It’s not an ideal swing candidate right now, but with confirmation signals, short-term traders could consider tight-range setups near support.

Would you like me to chart tech-sector peers with cleaner RSI and MACD signals? I've got a few that look more promising on breakout watchlists.
