2318 HK: Top of the range for -17% downside2318 is a leveraged financial play on the Chinese economy which is not doing very well at the moment. The stock has been consolidation in a range between $68 to $80 from July 2018 to today. Stock is back at the top of the range which suggest there is an asymmetrical risk reward trade set-up.
Technically speaking, it is worthwhile to remember 2318 completed a 3-Drive pattern from the 2009 trough in Jan 2018 while fundamentally speaking, it is a victim of the Chinese deleveraging, slowdown in the private sector and a bombed out stock market. Consolidation channels are generally continuation patterns which suggest 2 potential downside scenario:-
#1 a retest of the channel lower boundary for -17% potential downside target
#2 a breakdown from the channel which would imply a CD leg down to $45 to $48, -40%, which coincides with the 78.6% retracement level of the Feb'16 to Jan'18 up-move.
So far, I am commenting mainly from the technical analysis angle with a smattering of fundamentals/equity story. Do let me know in the comments if you folks prefer more TA, fundamentals or a more nuanced view. Knowledge without timing = 0.

HSI approaching resistance, potential drop! HSI is approaching our first resistance at 28234 (38.2% fibonacci retracemen, 100%, 61.8% fibonacci extension, horizontal swing high resistance) and a strong drop might occur pushing price down to our major support at 26508 (50% fibonacci retracement).
Stochastic (89, 5, 3) is also approaching resistance and we might see a corresponding drop in price should it react off this level.

HSI1!: ABCD completion into 200-DMA HSI futures just completed a counter-trend rally ABCD to run smack into the 200-days moving average and I would consider it ripe for a correction. A simple analysis of the higher lows and higher highs would suggest this is a bullish retracement. Zooming out a bit, one would notice there isn't really any support at these levels till the 22,250 level which happens to be:-
#1 the 78.6% retracement of the 2016 - 2018 uptrend
#2 a massive uptrend line which links the AFC, DotCom, GFC and Taper Tantrum troughs.
In both scenarios, we are still talking about an impending correction with the main question being how deep will it cut; <-10% or c.-20%
