Starhill Global Finally!

Seeing Strength in Starhill Global
When I first started out in trading and chart analysis, whenever I see price breaks out from trend line, I often have doubt if the break is a true breakout or a fake break.

With years of research and trading experience, I've came to realise that a stock performance against the market and its trading volume help us to improve the probability of trading or investing into trend line breakouts.

In the above chart, Starhill Global, we saw price broke out from its multiple year downtrend line.

Breakout or Fake Break?
With the stock outperforming the market (Positive RS Indicator) and strong FFI (fund flow index), we have a strong probability that the stock 's breakout will follow through.

The RS and FFI indicators, we have helped to reduced the guessing game when analysing the chart.

Join us in our upcoming Richard Wyckoff Method Course to learn how improve our trading probability by understanding and applying relative strength concept and how to trade along side smart money and the market.

The course is organised in conjunction with SGX Academy.

Wyckoff's Law of Effort

Law of Effort Wyckoff's Law of Effort states that on any single trading day (or week depending on time frame), huge volume (effort) push by participants should see huge price movement, resulting in a wide spread (long body). This is a basic principle of effort and result. However, as per Singtel's case study, we saw huge selling volume on 11 May, yet the price action only shows a narrow spread (small body). This divergence of effort and result in Wyckoff's Law of Effort principles, indicates possible exhaustion in selling or hidden buying. Thus, with a lack of weakness, Singtel should continue trading range bound for the coming days or weeks till further strength or weakness is observed. Swing Traders who trades range can consider positions at 3.70-3.72, with exit target 3.76-3.78.

Markets searching for technical support

Thoughts on Week Ahead: Week 21 Aug 2023 Markets searching for technical support US FOMC minutes have confirmed market’s fear of a hawkish US FED. This fear has triggered a continued sell-off in global equities over the past week. China economy and policy did not help too much either. China Evergrande filed for chapter 11 in US while Country Garden future remain uncertain as investors continue to keep an eye for a more aggressive policy from Beijing to support the economy and people’s confidence. From a technical perspective, markets are searching for technical support levels, where bargain hunters are willing to come in. Support levels are 4,300 for S&P 500 and 3,130 for STI. For the week ahead, market participants will be zooming in on US FED Chair Powell’s speech at the Jackson Hole meeting. We did not uncover trading (tactical) set up for the week ahead and will update once we identify any. Have a great trading week ahead. Headlines for Week Ahead: Key corp earnings (Nvidia

Thoughts on Week Ahead: Week 28 Aug 2023 Looking out for technical reversal indication Past week was an eventful one, with significant developments ranging from the arrest of former US President Donald Trump to BRICS expanding its membership to include financial powerhouses Saudi Arabia and the UAE. However, the focal point for the financial markets remained the speech by the US Federal Reserve Chair at Jackson Hole. The Chair highlighted that current economic condition is more favorable and hinted at holding rates during the Sept FOMC meeting, but also suggested a possible 25 basis points hike later in 2023, aligning with market expectations. Personal view, mixed rate outlook could suggest potential interest rate pivot (peak). Currently, both the S&P 500 and Hang Seng Index are in the process of establishing support levels at 4,300 and 17,800, respectively. We are closely monitoring these markets for signs of supply exhaustion, which would indicate a potential reversal. Intuit
