You can see a FVG Bullish formed where the 1st and 3rd candle didn't overlap.
Hence we have had a pull back in a flag formation, going to test the 50% level (Gann Box).
Once we get a break to the upside, we might have another chance to go long again and ride it up .
But right now I'm out of the trade.

UPDATE: Transaction Capital hit my Take profit but I'm pissedFalling Range formed on TCP and there was a trend channel bearish
200> 7<21
All the signs were showing downside to a target at R26.46. Which it hit.
If I held it just one more day it would have gone to R14.50.
But that's trading for you.
Now with the gaps and panic selling, we can expect some accumulation to form bringing the price up to close the gap. Then we will need to wait for the next formation and pattern to form.
I'll await and let you know

Bearish Fair Value Gap formed hence the big candle down.
Now due to the 1st and 3rd candle not overlapping, means we can expect the price to move up close the gap before moving down again
This gives a buy signal on the short term side with the Bearish FVG to R136.82

7=21 price>200 - Reversal

This coincides with the fall in JSE and other markets since the SVB collapse. I expect more Blue Chip stocks to tank until the world enters some type of equilibrium and solace.
Life Health Care group showing strong upside to R21.39 WARNINGW Formation since Sep 2022. It's been moving in a sideways range without any promising direction.
Then in February we had a breakaway gap.
This is where the price jumped from the sideways range into an uptrend.
And most sellers and stop losses were hit.
This showed strong upside to come.
7>21>200
RSI>50
Target R21.39
WARNING
Gaps like to close 70% of the time. And I don't generally like taking any trades where there are prior gaps.
I'd take this trade as a medium probability one.

USD/ZAR target hit at R18.48 & we have another dreadful target It pains me to say our USD/ZAR trade hit the take profit level at R18.48 and now it looks like further upside for the USD is on the way.
Another Cup and Handle has formed, which has broken above the neckline.
And if we place the stop loss below the handle, we get the next target at R19.71.

Target R19.71
With interest rates on the rise in America after Daddy Powell mentioned more upside to come, meanse investors will continue to invest in the US dollar with high income yielding assets like Bonds, Money Markets and High interest savings rates options.
As long as interest rates (or the fear of them) continue up, we will continue to see US dollar strength which will bring down many other exotic currencies like the rand.

Merafe showing downside to test R1.00 again read fundamentalsM Formation formed on the daily

CONCERNS:
Many resource companies are showing downside to come. It seems like smart money knows something the public doesn't. This corresponds to the strengthening dollar. Ever since the US dollar started strengthening in February 2023, Resources markets have been showing volatility with no conviction of upside.
Economically speaking for Merafe, the price of ferrochrome (Which is used in the production of stainless steel) is denominated in US dollars, which means that changes in the value of the dollar can impact the price of ferrochrome.
This is because a stronger dollar makes it more expensive for buyers in other countries to purchase ferrochrome, as they need to exchange their own currency for US dollars in order to make the purchase.
This can lead to a decrease in demand for ferrochrome, which can put downward pressure on the price.
Additionally, a stronger dollar can make it less profitable for ferrochrome producers in countries with weaker currencies to sell their products on the global market. This can lead to a drop in supply of ferrochrome, which can also put downward pressure on the price.

UPDATE Thungela still showing medium term downside but is slowLarge H&S since May 2022 formed which gave a Medium term trade.
Since it broke down, I know it would take a longer period for the price to drop due to the size of the formation.
Remember, companies will try everything in their power to keep the price up and without a strong negative catalyst, the formation will either play out or forma another pattern in the interim.
The bias is negative until we see any upside potential.

The warning is that it's been moving in sideways range for over a year, and it often peaks then drops and continues.
As the JSE ALSI is in a bear market at the moment (on smaller time frames) might delay the upside.
But the system says go long.
