The weekly chart of Minda Corporation depicts a perfect symmetrical triangle breakout above 230. The said pattern has a theoretical target of over 300.

The price action is supported by the positive placement of the weekly RSI which indicates strength in the momentum.

"One can buy in the range of 1,550-1,580 with an upside target of 1,715. The stop-loss should be 1,460 on a daily close basis," said the analyst.
