Used Hock Lian Seng as an example in August 2016. (Technical Analysis, Valuation and War Chest.)

I used Hock Lian Seng as an example to chat with this reader in August 2016. 

I wonder if he bought any before my next blog on Hock Lian Seng in February 2017. Don't scold me hor, I am just curious.

Blog in February 2017: 
Hock Lian Seng returns 100% and more.

Reader:
may i ask which TA you are using? candlestick, moving average or ?

AK:
I try to keep it simple. Example:

http://singaporeanstocksinvestor.blogspot.sg/2014/12/hock-lian-seng-robust-order-book-at-3.html
Hock Lian Seng: Robust order book at a 3 year high.

I also try to spot divergences sometimes:

Hock Lian Seng: Buying on weakness.

Reader:
I read, sometime u can't time the market, so shld we enter at a price we still think it's undervalue or use ta to determine entry price?

AK:
We can never get the lowest price. If we did, we were lucky. 🙂

So, if FA tells us it is undervalued, we can nibble.

Keep the TA picture in mind if it tells us prices could go lower. Have a war chest ready, always.

Currently my war chest is hovering 20% 😁
