Technical and Trend Analysis
From a technical perspective, Hindalco’s position above its key moving averages signals sustained medium- and long-term strength. The stock’s 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages provide support levels that have been respected in recent trading sessions.
