NED trade ideas
JSE:NED Nedbank Some Downside to ComeNedbank has been steadily increasing but after breaking the upward stride and breaking below the key 25000 level it seems that there is some distribution taking place. In the distribution, we see increasing volume on the declines and decreasing volume on the increases. Volume spikes are at the peaks. Looking for some markdown to take place.
Another bear flag on NEDI'm previously 'guilty' of banking my previous short on NED early.
But the same set up I took my previous short on, the bear flag,has presented itself again.
I'm short from R219, I'm targeting R200.
If the trend is indeed your friend, then I should be on the correct side of the trend.
NED - Crossroads We may derive the following from the Weekly NED chart:
1. Price is near a weekly trend support.
2. Bears have dragged the price down for many weeks.
3. Price i.m.o should continue to fall further, but there is potential for buyers to come in at the current price.
4. I would consider waiting for more clear price action.
5. As always - maintain your risk.

Technicals
This is a bearish structure formation so ultimately I expect a break to the downside. AS things stand now, I am expecting wave 5 to complete before the downside will occur. Price broke above the orange trend line indicated on the chart which leads me to believe that wave 5 is likely. There is however a possibility that a larger correction will form so be weary of reversal signs.
Nedbank trading at resistanceNedbank has spent most of this year in a bearish downtrend trend. After creating a high of R316.50, Nedbank fell as far as R223.58. It has rebounded off the low, but the stock is finding itself at a key resistance level once again.
The devil, however, is in the detail so let us analyse the chart.
The first thing to note is the declining trendline. Nedbank bounced off this bearish trendline at the end of August and has done so again over the past two weeks. It is very fitting that it is also occurring at the same levels of the 100- and 200-day EMAs. The fact that Nedbank is stuck at such a key level indicates it is a strong area of resistance.
There is also bearish order to the 3 EMAs while the Slow Stochastics recently had Nedbank at overbought.
This stock is setting itself up for a good short trade.
Action: Place a Limit order to SELL at R255 with a Stop Loss set at R272. I will aim to take profit at R240 and R225 respectively.
