Aspen short looks like a Risky Biscuit - Here's whyThis one is tricky and I'd consider a medium to low probability trade.
Aspen has just had a few days worth of bearish candles. Strong selling has clearly taken place.
During the time, it's formed an M Formation.
The price has broken below the neckline however there are danger signs that it might not work out.
1. 7>21 - Bullish.
2. Price >200 and needs to combat and break down
3. Smart Money Concepts - There is a fair value gap with an inefficiency of buying and selling.
So the price is likely to go up at least 50% of the gap before choosing.
4. The JSE is in a jovial and positive mood right now...
So you can see there are conflicting signals and if I had to get in, I would only risk 0.5% in this trade.
RSI<50

RISKY BISCUIT!

Which way will MTN break out of the Diamond?Diamond Formation has formed since September 2022.
This is a weekly chart because MTN is by far the most difficult market to analyse.
It is famous for moving sideways for extended periods of time. Then it eventually breaks out and moves in a trend for a short but powerful period.
This is only a market for trend traders who wait for the big move.
Or for range bounded traders who buy and sell within the range.
My ego is not high enough to choose a direction, so when it breaks out - we can choose to go long or short.
7=21
Price>200
Target up R203.90
Target down R60.65
UPDATE: Premature buy for Clicks but still bullish to R340.76Previously we saw the price break above the Inverse Head and Shoulders.
It was short lived and the price came back down to the support (which was a resistance).
Now it's testing the uptrend and the 200MA.
If the JSE continues up, then it should bring up the price which will give us a conservative...
7>21>200
RSI>50
Target remains at R340.76
Exxaro showing a stronger buy signal to R226.76Initially, I wrote that we could expect a break to the downside where there'll be a better entry for a short.
But the entry price never struck and the price turned up intot he channel.
Price is now breaking above the down channel, indicating a chosen direction - Up.
Other signs show some upside
7>21
RSI>50 - Bullish
Target R226.76
WARNING
I'm not too convinced yet and will need a stronger breakout and maybe even for the price to move up, test the support then bounce giving a conservative entry.
Then we are talking.

UPDATE SOUTH32 Target reached at R37.31 - Watch outSince the Inverse C&H, the price broke below the brim level and since then has been on a downward trajectory.
The downtrend, was the other confirming indicator that this was about to drop.
I definitely didn't expect the drop to be short and explosive, but for a trader it's always better to be in and out.
Now, there will most likely be some chop in the middle, which will scare both buyers and sellers. Best to do is wait for the next formation before jumping.
I'll let you know.

JSE ALSI 40 showing leading signs of downside to 60839M Formation has formed on the JSE ALSI 40.
While the SP500, Dow Jones and Nasdaq have been going up this year, it strangely looks like the JSE ALSI 40 has broken it's correlation.
Not only has America NOT been leading the JSE, it seems like the problems (economically and politically and socially) are showing signs for the country.
Now, either we get another fakeout and the market moves back up and goes "Tricked you again" as it's done this entire year.
Or this is the break down and start of major downside to come for the rest of the month.
Other indicators are showing downside momentum.

JSE ALSI Broken below 200MA first time since Nov 2022Symmetrical Triangle formed on ALSI and the darn price has just been moving within it for months on end.
Any JSE short term trader is most likely struggling with the whipsaws.
If one is not diversified in Forex or Indices - I don't know how they are making an income this year.
Regardless, the price has broken below the triangle and below the 200MA for the first time since Nov 2022.

The world is showing more bearish signals but as you know things can change SO quickly with the market.
Medium term I'm short until further notice.
