Revisiting Two Stocks: PAPERPROD & PETRONET

On July 5 I had posted about two stocks that could be potential cadidates for short term. It's been almost a month now. But these two proved to be exceptional performers and validated my picking strategy. They were really 2 good bets!
Two Stocks for Two Weeks PAPERPROD & PETRONET

Now I will summarize the progress in these stocks as of now.

PAPERPROD was at 75 when I posted. On 29 July it is at 89. It never closed below 20 DMA.

About 18.7% gain in share price!


PETRONET was at 139 when I posted. On 29 July it is at 172. It too never closed below 20 DMA though had a jerky low in the white candlesticks (which is not trustable).

About 23.7% gain in share price!
