Talking about NTPC share, Sumeet Bagadia of Choice Broking, said NTPC is looking good on charts so far. Fresh breakout in this stock will be seen when it crosses Rs 107-Rs 108 level on upper side. " One should definitely hold existing position and trailing stop loss should be used. Trailing stop loss should be between Rs 101 and Rs 102. On upper side, when NTPC share breaks Rs 105 level, another hurdle will be Rs 107-Rs108. The stock will show more strength when it surpasses these levels, Bagadia added.
