Trading Ideas for Week of 29 Jun 09

A Look At the Big Picture - DJIA: The DJIA has consolidated over the last 2 weeks and established a support at 8250. Indicators are turning positive - MacD has turned green over the last 2 sessions, indicating positive sentiment returning; the oversold stochastic is poised to recover and the recent low did not break the previous low. 8250 appeared to be a strong support. However, there are still some dark clouds to watch. We're likely to see the DJIA testing the 200MA and 20MA resistance in the next few days. A failed test of 20MA could result in more downsides over the next few weeks. While a break out of 20MA will provide more positive outlook for DJIA to break the 9000 mark.


STI: STI has formed another higher low. This is a positive sign as the last 2 weeks of consolidation will give it enough momentum to break the 2400 resistance. Indicators are also showing bullish signs. Key action to watch in the next few days will be the 20MA resistance. A failure to break this line will result in more downside.

My Stock Pick from Indicators Watch:
LONG : UIC, SIA Engineering

Trading Ideas for Week of 15 Jun 09

A Look At the Big Picture - DJIA: The DJIA moved in a tight range amidst the growing voices of the end to a bear rally over the last 1 week. Indicators showed that the market is in an overbought position. Although the +DI is in the bullish zone, its convergence towards the -DI indicates a waning of strength in the bull. The DJIA is in a cross-road, yet again. A break above the 9000 would provide investors with another signpost for more upside to come in the coming weeks. The support for DJIA is in the 8600 region, which is also the 20MA support level. A break below this level will post the initial warning signs of a possible change in trend and mood. I'm cautiously bullish of the market. Key events that could rock the markets: Reaction to the G8 meeting, Iran presidential election and N. Korea's reaction to the sanctions.



STI: Many black candles in the STI over the last 2 weeks. The STI is in a consolidation phase, at the same time, it is also attempting to test the 2400 resistance level. The good thing to cheer is that the STI is trending along the 5 EMA support line. However, its convergence towards the 20MA line indicates a slowing down of the bull trend. Over the next 1 week, the STI could see further consolidation. A break above 2400 with high volume will be a good signpost for more upside. While the breakdown of the 20MA support level will potentially points to more bearish sentiments.
