Charts in brief: 13 April 10.

Golden Agriculture: A black spinning top.  This is the seventh reversal signal in a row and seeing how price action has detached from the upper limits of the Bollinger band, a retracement to supports is probable: 20dMA is at 58c and 50dMA is at 56c.  MFI formed a higher low but failed to form a higher high today.  The OBV shows a lack of strength in accumulation.  Of course, as usual, an upward movement in price with high volume would negate all bearish signals.  This does not look likely.

Saizen REIT: Some profit taking happening today.  17c is initial support.  If this goes, a much stronger support is at 16.5c.
Notice of a Director's (including a director who is a substantial shareholder) Interest and Change in Interest: 12-04-2010, Starich purchased 1,000,000 Warrants on the open market.  Mr Arnold Ip Tin Chee is one of the beneficiaries of a trust which directly own Starich. Hence, Mr Ip is deemed to be interested in the 1,000,000 warrants held by Kim Eng Securities Pte Ltd in favour of Starich.

Healthway Medical:  The counter traded at one price only today, 16.5c.  The Bollinger bands are squeezing, it seems, and this usually means an increased volatility in price action is not far off.  16c remains a critical support to watch.  On the face of it, things are not looking good for this counter.

SPH: A long legged doji confirmed the black candle sell signal from the previous session.  Sell signal confirmed on the MACD as well.  Price has detached from the upper limits of the Bollinger bands.  Support is at $3.84. 
SPH has declared an interim dividend of 7 cents per share.

SPH reports 30% rise in 2Q net profit to $113m

Courage Marine: Although on signifcantly reduced volume, we have another black candle today.  With MFI in the overbought region and with OBV turning down, the probability is higher for the counter to retrace to support.  I see initial support at 21c.

AusGroup: In my last TA, I said "Price gapped up only to form a white inverted hammer which seems to suggest that fatigue is setting in. MFI has entered overbought territory. A perfect time to take some profit off the table? I think so." A big black candle day today as price closed lower at 66.5c.  However, of note is the much lower volume on this pullback. The selldown has been mild.  Any further selldown would find initial support at 63.5c

CapitaMalls Asia:  No follow through on what had seemed like a promising up day in the previous session as a wickless black candle was formed today.  It is reasonable to assume from today's action that this counter is trapped in a narrow range between $2.33 and $2.28.  When everyone finally tires of looking at the charts, this counter might just surprise on the upside.

Golden Agriculture:  A long legged doji.  This is a possible reversal signal as price does not seem able to break resistance at 62.5c.  However, the MFI has formed a higher low and OBV continues to rise.  Golden Agriculture might just try to push higher.  Channel resistance is at 64.5c this week.

Saizen REIT: Initial resistance remains at 17.5c. Volumes on down days have been relatively lower and this suggests a strong underlying support.  A retest of 18c is still very likely.  The descending 100wMA is also at 18c and this is likely to be a strong resistance.

Healthway Medical:  Today's price action dashed the hopes of stale bulls.  The counter's downward bias is re-asserting itself. Critical support remains at 16c.

SPH: Sell signal seen on the MACD.  Big black candle day as price closed at $3.94.  MFI is in overbought territory.  A pullback should find initial support at $3.84.

Courage Marine:  A premature attempt to move higher, it seems.  Price ended unchanged. Any retreat in price should find support at 21c.  I would accumulate on weakness as improving fundamentals make this counter more promising over the next few months.

AusGroup: Closed at 67.5c resistance level.  Reached a high of 69c. Next resistance is at 70c.  Price gapped up only to form a white inverted hammer which seems to suggest that fatigue is setting in. MFI has entered overbought territory. A perfect time to take some profit off the table? I think so.

Two great minds on Greece and gold.

I found these clips of recent separate interviews with Marc Faber and Jim Rogers as they shared their views on Greece and gold.  Make good sense, as usual.
