Genting SP: Bollinger bands narrowing.

The Bollinger bands are narrowing on Genting SP's chart.  This usually precedes a large magnitude price movement. Would it be up or down? Your guess is as good as mine.

Yesterday, I mentioned that "the 20dMA was breached as recently as last week (and) does not inspire confidence that it would be a strong support". Today, price broke under the 20dMA and it seems that $2.02 is now resistance but this needs confirmation. Price could retreat to the recent low at $1.85 which could act as immediate support. If that breaks, we could see the rising 50dMA as the next support.

The MACD continues to decline beneath the signal line in positive territory while the MFI has formed a lower high. The correction is in earnest but overall momentum is still positive.

Hock Lian Seng: Retreating.

On 5 Oct, I mentioned that there was "strong demand and accumulation but buying momentum (was) muted by strong selling pressure at resistance (32c)" and that "I sold some of my shares at the 32c target .... Although I still see strong support at 30c where we find the rising 20dMA, 30.5c could very well be resistance turned support."

Today, Hock Lian Seng retreated and closed at 30.5c, the support provided by the 20dMA. However, the retreating price is on the back of much reduced volume and does not worry me. Could the support at 30.5c hold? With the MACD on the verge of forming a bearish crossover with the signal line, we could see share price tested further on the downside.  This is especially true when we realise that the MFI has been entrenched in overbought territory for a few sessions now. This could be corrected in future sessions.  The RSI has formed a higher high which suggests to me that the buying momentum is intact.

What would I do? Notice that the 20dMA has been guiding the price of this counter higher? See the uptrend support is in between the 20dMA and 50dMA? This would be at about 30c.  The 50dMA is at 29.5c.  I would buy more at these price levels.  For anyone who is not vested but would like to be, buying some at the 20dMA (30.5c) could be a nice hedge.
