Golden Agriculture: Rebounding.

Golden Agriculture dipped briefly below the 200dMA before moving higher to close at resistance provided by the 50dMA at 53.5c.  This coincides with the trendline resistance which connects the high of 26 April at 62c and the lower high of 21 Jun at 55.5c.  This is the second downtrend. The first one connects the high of 26 April and the lower high of 13 May at 56.5c.  The second downtrend is gentler than the first and less dramatic.

Although trading volume increased today, it is not very heavy.  This might just be a rebound but if we believe in fan lines, price could move higher to break the trendline resistance to retest 55c as resistance.  This resistance level is quite obvious from past candlesticks and it is also where we find the flattish 100dMA. If the rebound is strong, price could even go up to 56c to retest resistance established earlier in May when the lower high of 56.5c was formed.  That, I believe, might be the extent of the current upmove.

MFI, a momentum oscillator which accounts for both price and volume has been in decline and this suggests a weakening demand. Price is probably moving up due to a lack of sellers and not because of an abundance of buyers. OBV is up which suggests that some accumulation is happening and there is some support. Downside could thus be limited.

Price of CPO is still entrenched in a downtrend and it does not look like the situation would be improving anytime soon.  The fundamentals are not strong but the share price is enjoying a bounce.  Immediate support at 52c and immediate resistance is at 53.5c.  If resistance is taken out, next resistance is a band from 55c to 56c.

Charts in brief: 5 Jul 10.

NOL: MFI did not manage to recapture 50% as support and its continuing decline suggests a lack of demand.  RSI similarly did not manage to recapture 50% as support and this suggests the speed of decline in price is relentless. Downtrend in price is intact. Since forming an inverted hammer on 21 Jun, volume has increased as price declined.  In the last two sessions, trading volume has fallen somewhat. This might or might not be a temporary respite.  I see support at the flat 200dMA, $1.83, and resistance at a confluence of MAs, $1.98.

SPH: Price touched a high of $3.88 again. MFI is rising sharply.  Demand is strong.  OBV is rising.  Accumulation is ongoing. Volume is, however, a tad lower today.  Breaking $3.88 could possibly see a target at $4.08 reached. Resistance at $3.95, the lower high formed on 10 May, would have to be taken out first, in such a case.

Metro: This counter has been in a downtrend since it peaked on 7 Jan, touching a high of 90.5c. Since May, indicators are showing some strength returning.  MFI has been climbing since late May.  OBV has been rising since late May.  RSI has been rising since early May.  The peak in distribution happened on 25 May as an ugly black candle was accompanied by a huge spike in trading volume.  A low of 73.5c was touched in two separate sessions on 21 May and 7 Jun.  That likely is the immediate support for now.  With momentum oscillators bouyant, it is unlikely that 73.5c would be taken out anytime soon.  In fact, the 20dMA has been rising gently since middle of June. The trend is still down but the worst might just be over, for now.
