TOP 40 - Simple AnalysisLooking at the TOP40 Index, we may derive the following from the weekly chart:
1. Price is at a notable resistance level where many rejections have occurred.
2. Prince is backtesting the weekly trend line break (purple line).
3. I am favouring a move to downside.
4. Since we are at a high, the risk is far less than trying to short once the move has occurred (if it does).
5. As always - maintain your risk management.
Let's see what happens.

Possible buy on Bidvest LtdFor the best part of the last six months, Bidvest Ltd has been trading in sideways range of between R212 and R192.
It recently broke above R212, going all the way up to R224.58 but didn't manage to hold the level. The stock is now trading back at support around R192. It is interesting to note, while the stock is sitting on support, the Slow Stochastic is also indicating the stock is oversold.
For this reason, I would be looking to buy now with the idea of selling as the stock makes it's way back to the upper resistance level.
Action: Place a Limit Order to go LONG with your Limit Price set to R195.00. Set your Stop Loss to R184.00 and your Take Profits to R205.00 and/or R212.00.

Support around 31800 held and now even small down channel was broken.
Looks bullish to me at least until stocks hold above 31800
J200 - TOP40 JSE:J200
For people that like fractals.
Drop in October 2018 was 12 days long and drop 9% from the top or some 5000 points
Current drop is 13 days long same 9% and almost same 5000 points.
So if history repeats itself TOP40 should bounce for the first pull back.
But as it stands now this will be just pullback and more downside is on cards.
