AIMS AMP Capital Industrial REIT: There is no doubt now that this counter has cleared a major resistance provided by a cluster of MAs. Closing at 22.5c today increased the probability of a retest of 23c, a long term resistance.  Would it stay range bound with 23c as the upper end of the range? The MACD is rising strongly and looks set to cross into positive territory which would signal the return of positive momentum. MFI is rising and OBV is rising.  The momentum seems strong.

FSL Trust:  Volume expanded nicely today on a white candle day.  The declining 20dMA is growing gentler in its gradient.  MACD continues to pull away upwards from the signal line in negative territory. MFI formed a higher low as it moves to test 50% again.  OBV is rising. The Bollinger bands are narrowing which suggests a reduction in volatility. 46c remains the resistance to watch for now. The declining 20dMA is at 47c.  Clearing these resistance levels could possibly see a target of 51.5c.

Golden Agriculture: Price touched a high of 52c after overcoming resistance at 50.5c. 52c, incidentally, is also where we find the declining 20dMA.  I have sold my remaining shares in this company at 51c. The negative divergence between rising price and falling volume is quite clear.  The downtrend is still intact and this rebound has provided me with an opportunity to divest.

SPH: Very nice white candle day but the volume has declined. Negative divergence.  Not so nice. MACD is poised for a bullish crossover in negative territory.  MFI has formed a higher low but OBV is flattish.  Closing at $3.79 is where we find the 20dMA.  Breaking this resistance, I believe, will find resistance at $3.83 next as this is where we find the 150% Fibo line as well as the 100dMA. Breaking this level would find resistance higher up at $3.88 and $3.90. Without an expansion in volume as price moves higher, I am doubtful that the higher resistance levels could be taken out and would therefore sell into strength.

Healthway Medical: Closing at 16c today is probably a relieve for shareholders of this company. 16c is where we find the flat 100dMA.  16c is also a many times tested support and likely to be a strong resistance. So, it remains to be seen if this could be taken out.

Volume has been thin and any upward movement in price is not convincing, therefore. Personally, I would sell into strength, especially if price continues to appreciate. Sell some at 16c and sell more at 17c? Maybe.

LMIR: A low volume day as the MACD crossed above the signal line and price closed at 46.5c, approximating the declining 20dMA. Volume has been declining as the price staged a rebound from a recent low of 42c. I would continue to queue to sell some at resistance as a hedge. I see a band of resistance from 47c to 48c.

Golden Agriculture: Downtrend is intact.

I have a very small long position left in Golden Agriculture, having divested half of my remaining investment at 55.5c in mid May as the counter formed a lower high in the current downtrend which started in late April. It has continued to form lower lows and lower highs since.

The immediate resistance seems to be 50.5c now while breaking the low of 24 May would have a downside target of 44.5c as suggested by Fibo lines which coincides with gap support formed on 9 Nov 09.  That is some way to fall.

I am definitely not in a hurry to add to my long position at this point in time.

SPH: Flirting with the 200dMA.

SPH has been flirting with the 200dMA in the last few sessions. Today, it closed firmly below the 200dMA, forming an inverted white hammer, at $3.69.  I am watching this counter very closely as it is my favourite blue chip for its high yield and fortress-like core business and real estate interests. Also, I have divested about half of my investment in this company at $3.95, a lower high, in an earlier session after it hit a high of $4.18 in late April. So, I would like to load up again in order to keep my portfolio balanced.

Seeing how the 200dMA is in danger of being left behind, I plotted Fibo lines which suggest that price could go as low as $3.52 which coincides with the lows formed in the first half of Nov 09.

If we look at the weekly chart, we see that the rising 50wMA has not been compromised as a support.  It is at $3.63 this week. I might buy some at $3.63 as a hedge.
