Genting SP: Obvious downtrend.

Genting SP is in an obvious downtrend.  On 5 March, I said: "If the 50wMA (93.5c) is taken out in the next session, we might see the price rising to the 20dMA, which is descending sharply and should be at 97c then. All eyes would be on whether the price action would be able to break through the 20dMA to close higher, failing which, a resumption of the downtrend is more likely. I still see strong supports provided by the 100wMA (74c) and the 200wMA (70c) then."

Genting SP's price rose past the 20dMA and reached a high of 97.5c on 17 March, forming a white spinning top in the process.  The higher high formed on the MFI shows that buying momentum has strengthened recently.  However the OBV's rise does not mirror the steep fall weeks ago which suggests that the recent accumulation is weak.

On 15 Mar, I said:"This counter has been enjoying a revival lately but on decreasing volume. Daily volume has been lower with the price moving higher since 5 March, the day when price and volume spiked up. This suggests that the buyers are, probably, mostly shortists covering their positions. This is not to say that the price cannot move higher but without a significant number of new participants coming in on the long side, any move upwards would lack sustainability."  The negative divergence in price action and volume is still quite obvious and my earlier observations are still valid.

In the event that price does move up higher, immediate resistance is provided by the 200dMA at 99.5c.  Declining 50dMA is at $1.05.  Lady Luck could be quite generous on occasions.
