Swing Trading Stocks This Week (Nov 3-7, 2025)
As we enter the week of November 3 to 7, 2025, swing traders should adopt a focused, tactical approach. With broader market consolidation taking place, opportunities are emerging in stocks showing strong volume, clear chart structure and sector‐leadership. At the same time, volatility remains elevated — making risk management and discipline more important than ever.
In this article, we’ll cover:
- Market context & themes for the week
- Criteria for selecting swing stocks
- Top stock picks for Nov 3-7 (based on your screenshot list)
- Trade parameters: entries, targets, stops
- Risk management & trade psychology
1. Market Context & Sector Themes
The Indian equity market continues to exhibit a mix of resilience and caution. After multi-week rallies, momentum is pausing for consolidation. For swing traders, this means:
- Rotational opportunities: Sector rotation (metals → NBFCs → consumer) may produce large moves.
- Volume breakouts: Stocks breaking out on above‐average volume are most likely to sustain short-term rallies.
- Macro headwinds: Global uncertainty, domestic GDP growth concerns and valuations remain overhangs.
Thus, while the trend remains upward, the next leg up will likely favour selective momentum stocks rather than broad market lift.
2. Criteria for Stock Selection
For this week’s swing ideas we applied the following filters:
- Liquidity: Stocks with sufficient daily volume for quick entry/exit.
- Momentum: Recent run‐up or breakout candidate (RSI in 60-75 zone, MACD positive).
- Chart structure: Clear support/resistance, recent consolidation, or breakout setup.
- Sector strength: Stocks from sectors showing relative strength (finance, metals, exports).
- Risk control: Comfortable stop-loss levels and target risk:reward of at least 1:2.

- Stay informed: Sector news, global cues (commodities, rates), and macro updates can trigger sudden moves.
- Use alerts: Set price alerts on entry and stop-loss thresholds to stay disciplined.
