Hi All.
On FKLI
Today saw a broadly sideway move on FKLI, ranging between the 1,625-35 range.
On the daily, price has consolidated to the upside since Jan 21-21 plunge low of 1,601.5, now seems to be forming an ascending triangle.
Price was unable to break above the resistance yesterday's high of 1,638, which is of a little concern to my bullish bias on the index future.
Given that an inside bar is formed on the daily, signaling a pause to previous strong move up from 1,620-38 the past two days. I'll give it another day for a price breakout from the consolidation phase.
As of writing, DJI saw a surge over 100pts back above 14,000, as U.S. home prices grew 0.4% in December to stretch the year-on-year gain
to 8.3%.
That's nearly a 1% higher than the 7.4% growth registered in 2011, while being the strongest gain seen post-crisis.

| FKLI - Consolidate in Ascending Triangle. A Breakout is Imminent. (Feb 05) |
Encouraging housing data in the US, & that rally on DJI, if sustainable overnight, shall be a strong catalyst
to a potential breakout tomorrow on our benchmark KLCI & FKLI.

On FCPO
Another Inside Bar formed today, trading was tepid within a 20ticks range.
This indicates that traders are not ready to make the move yet, still pondering over their trade decisions.
We will have to see on which side the breakout will occur, trading in its direction shall prove rewarding.
Momentum indicators are on the high side, favoring the bears in this case.
MACDh saw a first red which adds further to the downside pressure.
Adding to the pressure, is the SoyOil price which is struggling to stay above the support levels of 52.70-52.95, after it broke below its double-top neckline at 52.95 earlier on at 2100h.
SoyOil is firmly bearish for the moment, though the rally on Dow has provide the bulls some respite, which is proven short-lived as price is again back below the neckline, as of now (@0032h).
FCPO is pending a breakout, with a downside bias on weak SoyOil & bearish momentum indicators signals.

Hi guys/girls.
ReplyDeleteFKLI did BREAK OUT of the ascending triangle consolidation, to the DOWNSIDE! (though I was on the bulls' camp as of yesterday close)
That spells the end of the temporary rebound from 1,601.5 low (Jan22) to 1,638 high (Feb04).
The triangle breakout minimum target of 20pts is achieved as price dropped from 1,630-1,604.5 morning session low.
We are seeing bears taking a breather now, with price consolidating within 1,605-1615 range as of close for midday break.
For the day, we may well see price recover back to about 1,615-25 on technical rebound.
Whether or not the day will end with a new low remains to be seen.
On the mid-term though, FKLI is firmly bearish as today's breakout signal continuation to previous downtrend from 1,705 all-time high.
Previous consolidation may be considered as a BEAR FLAG, which then gives a mid-term downside target of 1,560, which is also a 2.618 fibo projection target from 1,705 peak.
