The Trend is our friend but he is a fickle friend  

Posted by Book Eater in , , , ,






PCOMP is in a short term uptrend. We finally moved with the 32 day moving average. As can be seen from the PCOMP daily chart, the volume is just okay but at least our MACD is higher than the 0 line. We are in positive territory. Also, unlike the RSI and price being divergent in the short term rally last February 2008, the price and the RSI right now have went in the same direction and is higher than 50.

Intermarkets analysis also confirm this uptrend. The US indices right now are higher than the 50day moving averages. The corrections have been healthy pullbacks and should be seen as window opportunities to enter instead of fear. Maintain your risk/account ratio of 2% and risk reward ratio greater than 3 for higher batting averages. Tradermike.net already has it in his blog if you are lazy to look for yourself.

If you also look at commodities, they're all making a sell signal giving us a more sustainable rally this time. Try checking the charts to confirm this for yourself:)

The trend right now is with the bulls. However, he's a fickle friend. He may give a few pullbacks here and there. Just stay on top of your noses.

Here's my stock picks and pricks (those I chose which were wrong):
Stock Picks


1.) AC - Looks like a possible breakout that will test next resistance at 450

Volume - Greater than average by 100%
Price Line-Big White Candle closing near the highs of 420
MACD- made a cross signal and is above zero line
Stochastics - Made a cross signal

Preferred entries: Hope there's a chance to hop in this train at below 420 (any pullbacks) but if not, then 422.50 will be the cheapest play around here.

Target price: 450
Cutloss price: 397.50 (A break of 400).


2.) MWC - Doji pattern, above moving averages of 32,65,124. Volume is greater than average by about 30%, MACD cross buy signal, STS cross buy signal.

Entry: 17.75/18
Target price: 19/19.25
Cutloss: 17


3.) ICT - Just read A bull in a bear market's analysis. It's there already.

Stock Pricks (They hurt like cactus.)

1.) NI - The stock seemed to have been toppish. The volume surge the past days werent warranted. As you can see, the stock cannot go higher than 14.75 pesos anymore. Volumes have declined tremendously, stochastics also gave a sell signal. Even if MACD is at the positive zero line. There's no reason to cling to this stock when there's so much action elsewhere.

Recommendation: Cut your loss if you have any shares. Sell it down if need be.


2.) CMT - this stock is also toppish. The resistance comes at Php1.00, volumes are very low despite the 72 point surge of the PSEI. Stochastics also tell us a sell signal.

Cut your losses

Phisix Breakout and Stock picks  

Posted by Book Eater in , , , ,

























I posted Phisix Daily Chart (Zoomed), Phisix Daily Chart (Zoomed Out) and Phisix Weekly Chart so that we can understand the picture of today's markets better.


Short term: We just broke out the downtrend channel indicating a possible short term reversal. Where then will we encounter resistance? Zooming out, we see 3031.


Medium Term: 3031 might be a resistance we have to take out and we will then proceed to a larger rally ahead of us. We can then use the height from 3031 to the low of about 2772 which gives us a short term target price of (3031-2772=roughly 260 pts) or target of 3290.



Long Term: Weekly chart, we are just lying at the 130 week MA and have just bounced from there. Our long term outlook is still positive however, the support lies at a little above 2500 so there are still downside ahead. Caution is advised.

We have to see what happened also at the US indices to confirm this breakout.

_______________________________________________________


Stock Picks:
1.) AC - lower low, higher MACD, white bullish hammer last March 28 with significant volume. See chart.









2.) AP- Looks to make a symmetrical triangle. A breakout with significant volume is a good entry point. Support point of the symmetrical triangle lies at 4.70, breakout point of symmetrical triangle is at about 4.90 Wait for significant volume to arise before entering.


3.) CMT- Parabolic Trigger signal, buy cross signal, diminishing volume through the box consolidation and seeing volumes emerge again. Higher RSI but still not overbought.


4.) NI
-Looks set to breakout of its box pattern and coupled with Parabolic trigger buy signal, above average volumes, RSI going higher, Doji pattern forming a higher low from yesterday.













Notes: Picks were chosen based on possibility that they have yet to rise because most banking stocks like BPI, BDO have already increased significantly. EDC has increased significantly as well. Stocks in this list are "forecasted" to trade higher in the coming days.

Animal Menagerie, week ahead.  

Posted by Book Eater in , , ,

First of all, I have been quite messy with my trades, my time tables, and in fact even with posting here in my trading blog. Here are some resolutions I am planning to do.

-------> Creating a format and time: Will upload ideas before 7:30pm (if post is not available, check it the next day before 9am) just so things will be predictable with me.

Format: PSEI daily/weekly (on mondays) + stocklist
Updates on any recommendations before
Interesting stuff found from everywhere + rants + opinions etc.

When do i start this format? hmm... i'll try to start it today, tell me if it works.

Some segways:
Drank lots of alcohol for my sister's party, threw up, slept late, watched movie atonement, been a sloth. Still went to church, ate more, bought books, played basket and won.woohoo. sloth after then thought about money matters. and now..im writing ......after chatting and doing lots of unproductive stuffs.

A. PSEI Weekly Outlook

- PSEI is biased downwards and still has 130 pts more downside from its present 3080 closing price last Friday to test support of 2953 (previous low last Jan 22, 2008)
- still in the negative MACD region, don't fool yourself thinking we can be more bullish because of the rally of the DOW last friday. Even if DOW closes high when my eyes close tonight, if it's not more than 1%, I wouldn't believe it.
-RSI has further downside. Volume still thin

Opinions:
Last Friday's market action especially with the heavy selling of MEG, GLO, RLC , AC just to name the few blue chips that were really hammered is to me just an appetizer, to what's coming ahead. I like to analogize the market's action similar to a game of chess. Weaker pawns are sacrificed first, the king/queens will be the last to fall to confirm that the kingdom is lost.

Anyway, I didn't want to be so metaphorical about it but TEL (king of our PSEI with the highest market cap) is still at 2840. If you think we're bottoming out, we're not. Perhaps when TEL moves back to around 2500-2600 levels, then maybe, but we still don't know. If you look at the bishops and queens, they're quite getting there. GLO is going back to its support of 1450 or maybe 1405? for the bigger triangle?, RLC going back to its support of 11.25 (which i think is prone to be broken, cross fingers.). AC going back to 430/415. MEG either stays afloat in the 2.20 to 2.44 range or floors down to 1.95 support.

My opinion: if you're in cash, good for you. Place a watch list on the blue chips. Buy gradually and cautiously. Go for defensive natures. I like TEL @ 2585, GLO @ 1405/1450, AC @ 430. Wait for a successful bounce before entering.

If you're in a position- look at charts, do ur own homework. Check if your trades are weak and have to be lightened. If you think they are ones that can be bought more (once it bounces from support.) by all means, do so. For me, there's a distinction between averaging down a losing stock , which you clearly know is losing, and a stock that has shown a reversal. It's just that we tend to notice our favorite stocks doing the reversals.

My belief: Sell the rallies. I read Jensen's weekly on psei and he (from jensendkc.blogspot.com) has a chart drawing that shows PSEI might be entering a head and shoulders bottom which is bullish. To me, it's quite too early to tell. I'd wait things out to play its own pattern for a while. I won't want to enter too soon. Though I don't think he is recommending any buys for the moment, the drawing is left to be a guide that things may go up from a technical bounce of the support. I believe this is the case when TEL and the heavy weights bounce from support.

For tomorrow: I think if DOW closes positive tomorrow, take advantage of market strength to exit positions. Raise cash and buy the dips which I think can come anytime this week.

___________________________________________________________________

Selected Stocks: TEL, AC, GLO

Rationale: I want to concentrate on the big blue chips. Just my personal view on betting on the strong ones. Inspiration comes from this simple quote:

"The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, but that's the way to bet."- Damon Runyon

If there is a technical bounce, then i'm gonna bet on what I perceive to be the strong ones in PSEI. I've had it with basura stocks haha. - I sound so bitter. I'll update on the basura Angping stocks nextime. oks?

Charts:
1.) TEL - box pattern
Buy:
Entry: Successful bounce from Jan 22 lows, around 2500-2585
Cut loss- intraday penetration on Jan 22 lows or a close below Jan 22 closing price.
Target: 3000/2800
Potential upside: whopping 12.5% to 25%
Observations: Expectations of another voltes V

2.) GLO - box pattern
Buy:
Entry: Successful bounce lows, either around 1405 or 1450?
Cut loss- intraday penetration on lows
Target: 1605
Potential upside: More than 10%
Observations: Expectations of another technical bounce



3.) AC- MACD Bullish Divergence

Buy: Accumulate at 415 to 430 levels
TP: 530 ( di ako nakainteractive charts kaya di exact)
Cutloss - as much as possible, I think you only cut loss when it falls lower than the support made last August 17. I recommend though not to cut. This can be seen as either a short term / medium term position entry.

Potential upside: For short term: could be around 20%, For medium term, greater than 20% - prone to volatility though.

Snippets:

I wanted to share more on the "animal menagerie" that i saw in a book. Kwento ko tomorrow inaantok ako tas early gising eh. byee

sneak peak :

Bulls earn money, Bears earn money, Pigs get slaughtered.

Lesson of the story: Greedy pigs die in the market. But greed is good..so we will introduce the wolf in this animal menagerie tomorrow. see ya.
