The read

written from the numbers on this page
The evidence is mixed4 supporting, 4 against, 3 worth knowing

Supporting

  • matches near a 52-week low, which has beaten the market by +0.45 points over 20 sessions across 47,393 past signals
  • 2 of the scans it matches have a positive measured record
  • 3 independent kinds of evidence agree today, which is uncommon
  • priced at 14× earnings against an industry median of 17× — 20% below its peers

Against

  • trading 14% below its 200-day average
  • at 2% of its 52-week range — nearly everyone who bought in the past year is underwater
  • down 23% over twelve months
  • net margin has narrowed from 16.5% to 15.3% across four quarters

Worth knowing

  • RSI at 23 is washed out — historically the better half of this site's measured edge comes from exactly this condition
  • revenue grew 0% year on year in the quarter ending 2026-06-30
  • the rise is short covering rather than fresh buying, which historically runs out when the shorts are done
What would change this read: a close back above 847, its 200-day average.
Assembled automatically from the figures on this page — the scans matched, their measured record, the filed financials, the derivatives positioning and the peer comparison. It is not a recommendation, no one has spoken to the company, and every claim above can be checked against a number further down this page.

What the scans say today

3 of 47 matched on 2026-08-21
HDFCBANK matches 3 of the 47 scans today, across 3 different kinds of evidence. Three or more independent families agreeing is uncommon — it is the same test the shortlist on every page uses.

Valuation against its own history

500 sessions since 2024-09-06
15×
median 19×
21×
now 14×
HDFCBANK trades at 14× trailing earnings, below its median of 19× over this window — 28% less expensive than usual. The band runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, so single-day spikes do not set the edges.
This window is short by the standards of valuation history — it begins where four quarters of filed earnings first exist. A stock can look cheap against two years and expensive against ten.

Short Covering
Price up, open interest down. Sellers are closing, not buyers arriving. Rallies built only on this tend not to last once the shorts are out.

How to read this
Open interest is contracts still open, so a rise means new positions and a fall means positions closing. Combined with price direction that gives the state on the left. The walls are the strikes carrying the most open interest near expiry — levels other people are watching, not levels the price is obliged to respect. A future below spot means sellers are paying to be short.
