Egypt Riot

The massive one day US market selling-off on Friday will definitely give bears a strike back, after its eight weeks advancing.

For Singapore market, it will be selling off too today. The first support level I'm looking at is 3180, and then the critical level 3120.

See you soon.

Intermarket

Today's market is gloomy and listless, this is what I can say. Not everyday is a trading day, for short term trading, I'd rather suggest you stay out or get out. The market can go either direction in coming week.

Below is my view on different markets, bias is neutral to bearish in short term.

Straits Times Index: STI currently trading under its short term downtrend line, in between 3200 to 3230(20ma), it has to breakout its downtrend line to move up further, otherwise it may retrace further.

Hang Seng Index: HSI today continue slip, close to its support 23500, I expected it would find its support in between 23500 to 23250( the downward trend line, ellipse in below chart)


Shang Hai Index: SSE is the most bearish chart among all. Currently facing multiple resistance on top of head), it has to clear the area at 2750~2800 resistance to move up.

Kepland Hit Support for a Bounce

On 13 Jan, Kepland had a nice breakout, and the next day government announced to lift levy on properties sales. It was selling off immediately after the announcement. What does it tell me?
- Don't ever show hand
- Manager your risk, only trade within your capability
- Get out immediately if your are wrong.
- No one method is perfect, be it Technical or fundamental

STI in Short Term View

Good morning everyone.
I've been doing quite well so far in 2011. and I hope you got good profit too. I've been keeping posting and updating you in this blog for quite sometime already, this is 3rd year. And all these information are free for you. I do these for few simple reasons:

- It's my passion and interest to trade. I really love it.
- I believe in technical analysis.
- The financial market are abundance, no one can earn all the money.
- I feel good in my heart when someone out there read it and say thank you.

I want to make this website better and more helpful, wondering is there anyone out there good at website design ( I've very limited knowledge on this) and want to join me to write and publish or any other good ideas or suggestion. Please drop me a line.

Okay let's take a look at STI in short term now, market has been generally bullish since the begining of the year. It's in a narrow trading range for the past six days or so. It can go either way at this point, a breakup of the triangle would push it further up to recent high 3280, whereas a break down would bring it back to 3220 key support, where it conflunce with confluence with its 20ma. The generall uptrend is still intact.

The Breakouts

market is rather quiet but there are few stock there moving actively always. F&N and SATs breaking out now.


Monday, January 17, 2011

Broad Market

Good morning everyone.

Today US market holiday. The US market indices including DJI, SPX, and Nasdaq are still very bullish in overall.

Local bench market STI has been zig-zag in a narrow range for the past four trading days. The major uptrend is still intact, and short consolidation or even a pull back to 3220 and 3205( as depicted in below chart) is possible. It would provide us more long opportunity if this happened.

Properties Tumbled

Fourth round of cooling measures. In yet another surprise move last evening, the government announced another round of property cooling measures –the 4th in two years.

- With effect from 14 Jan 2011, the holding period for Seller’s Stamp Duty (SSD) would be increased from three to four years.
- The SSD rates would be raised to 16%, 12%, 8% and 4% for residential properties sold in the first, second, third and fourth year of purchase respectively.
- The Loan-To-Value (LTV) limit will be lowered to 50% for housing loans to purchasers who are not individuals and 60% to individuals with one or more housing loans.
Near term weakness in share prices for property and banking stocks as well as in the physical property market. Besides the knee-jerk reaction expected this morning for property and extending to banking stocks (as mortgages remain a key component of most banks’ loans books), we also expect the physical property market to see near term price weakness (as was already the case after August’s cooling measures)

My kepland stucked as the knee jerk reaction of the above piece of news. In overall, i don't think it will drop like hell. market will take this opportunity for profit taking. STI immediate support level still at 3220 level.

Lottery Play

Viking appears to be one of my lottery play candidates, it had a breakout of Symmetric Triangle pattern today, with super high volume. My long time readers should know what I mean by "Lottery Play", they are typically: cheap(<50c), high risk, and very volatile.

Market Soften as Short Term Profit Taking

STI has been up for two weeks and it losing a bit steam now, some profit takings are expected in the short term... I don't much to say at this moment, I'm monitoring those blue chips retracing to their support level then get in again. I already closed out 90% of my longs yesterday with good profit.

Will update you again.

UMS

The hotspot has been passed on to cheap stocks today. Personally I'm not a fan of stocks below 50c, occasinally I will buy small amount to satisfy my gambling heart. My trading period are typically short term.

UMS today just breakout, some good news for it.

Wilmar

Wilmar, this falling angel disappointed many, was greatly influenced by China government policy and recently was dumped again, due to its venture into China property market. Anyway I still have a faith in it, it's forming a bullish divergence between its price and RSI, the downside is limited.
