Thank you Traderji,
I hope that it will turn out to be an excellent investment in the medium to longer term. Its sales are zooming and it should return to dividend list soon.
However, since it is not an integrated player, its input costs may rise in future.
Can someone please comment if this factor will affect its profitability significantly?

Dear Traderji

There was recently an article in a supplement on Australia issued by The Economic Times which indicated that the total exports of Uttam Galva Steels for the year ended 31st March 2004 was about 260,000 tons and it is estimated to rise to 320,000 tons for the year ending 31st March 2005.

Probably this is one of the best mid cap stories and the only caveat is the quality of management. We do not have any information on the management. They appear to be good. Will anyone throw any light on the quality of Management of Uttam Galva ?

What is the rationale for the upmove. The volume is pretty low. How come you don't give any oscillators like RSI STochastics on the graphs and explain things like positive/negative divergences

Most technical indicators do not work they way most analyst expect it to work.

Identifying profitable trading opportinity using technical analysis is an art which is developed after years of practical trading experience.
