CPO price spiked 2.44% today to close RM58 higher at RM2,439. The impressive appreciation aside, what is more significant is that the downtrend resistance established since the double top formation I have talked about before has been broken! Is this the beginning of a sustained recovery or is the decline simply shifting to a lower gear? Only time will tell.
Golden Agriculture's share price has yet to react to this bit of news or would it react at all?
From 26 April, we can draw two fan lines. Price broke out of the first fan line resistance (in orange) and later on broke out of the second fan line resistance (in red). Since then, price seems to have moved into a range with resistance at 55c, provided by the flat 100dMA, and support at 52c, provided by the gently rising 200dMA.
Although the OBV is flattish, the MFI, which accounts for both volume and price, has broken out of its downtrend. So too has the RSI. The halt in the decline of the MFI suggests that we are seeing a return in demand but this is probably balanced by the presence of sellers which is why the OBV is flattish. The dojis formed in the last two sessions suggest indecision and this reinforces the idea that we are seeing a delicate balance between the buyers and sellers here.
The MACD is gently rising in positive territory which indicates that the momentum is positive. So, although the current situation is still iffy, there is a slight upward bias observed. In the short term, the 100dMA resistance might be hard to break. Look at the stochastics and we will see that it is entering overbought territory. Upside could, therefore, be limited at 55c.
Fundamentally, if CPO price continues to recover while the share price of Golden Agriculture trades sideways, we might have an interesting proposition to go long here. Buy in at 52c? Maybe. I am keeping an eye on this one.
