Global equities that continue to ascend are providing additional momentum to Indian indices. Against this backdrop, we have identified five breakout stocks from the Nifty Smallcap 250 that have emerged from their consolidation zones, presenting compelling opportunities for readers to track.

Before discussing the stocks, a chart check of the Nifty Smallcap 250 index.

The Nifty Smallcap 250 index has formed an ascending triangle pattern since early July 2024, with higher lows and a consistent resistance level. This pattern typically indicates a bullish continuation in technical analysis, suggesting that the upward trend is likely to persist. The index recently broke out of this ascending triangle, marked by a runaway gap—a strong bullish signal that signifies a rapid price increase.

The formation resembles a pennant breakout when examining the June 2024 rally in conjunction with the ascending triangle pattern. Although this may not fit the textbook definition of a pennant pattern, which typically involves a symmetrical triangle, the overall chart signals a continuation of the bullish trend following a period of consolidation. Pennants are continuation patterns in technical analysis, characterized by a brief period of consolidation that precedes a breakout.
