SPP trade ideas
Buy Box on SparJSE:SPP broke out of the bottom of the 'buy box' consolidation area yesterday which normally means a signal to go short, but it seems like a hammer candle is forming which could mean a reversal, so I will remain cautious and only enter a short if it breaks the current low of today's price action.
Descending triangle on SparDespite a positive reaction to its Trading update last week, gains only went as far as the incline resistance around R205
We have now ‘lost’ the 50dma; next is the 200dma which coincides with the horizontal support area around R188-R190.
This is the area to watch for a move lower.
Trade Idea: Spar Group (SPP)A share's prior breakdown level often becomes a distribution zone once the level is re-test. Spar Group, which has rallied back to this level, is also testing it's downward trend line resistance while the last three sessions, by observation of the candle structure suggests 198/202 becoming a distribution zone. while the volume is starting to decline on this 4-day push higher. This is where I think we are setting up a short/sell for a move back down to 189/188.
