Hang Seng Index (HSI) Facing Downtrend Pressure

 


Hang Seng Index (HSI) Facing Downtrend Pressure

What are we expecting?
Hang Seng Index (HSI) fell below its key support level at 28,000. This break is more significant than usual as HSI has just experience index being halted at 31,000 level, and mounting Supply as indicated by our proprietary FFI (Fund Flow Index) indicator. 

These actions suggest the index is in a Distribution Phase, entering Mark Down phase.

First level of support for HSI will be at 26,000 area cushioned by high volume area and 1.618% Fibonacci level.

Who should be concerned?
Investors: Investing in the Hong Kong Market may reduce position at this point but also keep a lookout for stocks that show signs of bottoming during the Mark Down process.

Traders: Taking short positions is preferred till 26,000 target reach or character of accumulation phase is observed. 

Why the Mark Down?
Stock market is always forward priced, we will not be able to clearly define the reason till 3-6months later. One marco trend that is developing is expectation of inflation, which leads to hike in interest rate environment, threatening companies recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Wyckoff's Law of Effort

Image
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.

Bullish Case for Bitcoin

BTC Exhibiting Signs of Accumulation 1 year after BTC price plunged from its US$20,000 high to a recent low of US$3,215.20, now we are seeing technical evidence of  accumulation by the smart money is in progress . Above is an illustration of Accumulation Zone of the Wyckoff Price Cycle. We are watching very closely for price to cross the creek (est. US$4200 level).  A break above the level, we deem that price has proceeded into the Mark Up Phase with 1st objective at US$5,800. If creek is not crossed, a break below US$3,190 will falsify our Accumulation zone analysis. Join us in our FREE Introduction to Richard Wyckoff Seminar to learn more about the method and how the method add value to your market timing analysis.
