BIDVEST Descending Resistance Breakout & ConfirmationJSE:BVT has broken through the descending resistance and has confirmed the breakout.
We can expect a move towards the resistance level around the 21000 level.
For the cautious trader, you can wait for it to break through the fractal or for the more aggressive trader, you could enter immediately.
ABSA ShortJSE:ABG has broken out of the symmetrical triangle pattern that had formed.
Today it seems to be retracing a bit and you might find that it will bounce off the resistance before continuing downwards.
Depending on your risk appetite, you can enter a short right away or wait for a retracement and bounce before entering.
Strong Downward Momentum on MNPJSE:MNP is trading in a downward channel and a pattern has emerged that every time it hits the top of the channel, it plummets towards the bottom of the channel. It has recently hit the top of the channel and is looking positive for a downward move, but just to be safe, we will wait until it breaks through the fractal a little below the current price.
Buy Box on SparJSE:SPP broke out of the bottom of the 'buy box' consolidation area yesterday which normally means a signal to go short, but it seems like a hammer candle is forming which could mean a reversal, so I will remain cautious and only enter a short if it breaks the current low of today's price action.
Piercing Line ReversalA PIERCING LINE has formed on JSE:REM .
A piercing line is defined by the following:
- After a preceding downtrend,
- Green opens below previous days close, and closes above 50% of the real red body.
- Bottom reversal signal
- Candles must be different colours.
Because of this, along with the upward channel that it has been trading in, I entered a long position on opening this morning.
Ascending Triangle Breakout - LHCJSE:LHC has just broken out of a ascending triangle that it has been forming since mid November last year. Because of this I have entered a long position.
An ascending triangle is a chart pattern used in technical analysis. It is created by price moves that allow for a horizontal line to be drawn along the swing highs, and a rising trendline to be drawn along the swing lows. The two lines form a triangle. Traders often watch for breakouts from triangle patterns. The breakout can occur to the upside or downside. Ascending triangles are often called continuation patterns since the price will typically breakout in the same direction as the trend that was in place just prior to the triangle forming.
